Although the premise of a Verzuz battle is to compete by strategically using one’s own catalogue of hits against each other to determine a “winner,” many past participants have also used the opportunity to praise their opponent’s work in the same way that Durk and Herbo plan to do. In particular, viewers noted that  felt more like a celebration of both artists’ phenomenal catalogues, and considering Durk and Herbo are so tight, it’ll come as no surprise when they both go straight into fan mode over each other.
