* AwesomeMcCoolName: "I'm a criminal legend, with a badass name!" To quote Edward "Blackbeard" Teach himself.

* BadassBeard: Blackbeard naturally has an impressive beard, though Capone calls it a rat nest.
* BadassBoast:
** Blackbeard’s second verse is loaded with these:
-->'''Blackbeard''': "The Valentine's Massacre brought you condemnation but I'm gonna sink you faster than your income tax evasion."
-->"So prepare to learn the Davy Jones locker combination."
-->"Forty cannon on the Queen Anne. Your gang can't stop it. I'll pilfer all your rum and sell it back at a profit."
*** And he ends by calling himself a criminal legend with a [[AwesomeMcCoolName badass name]].
** Most of Capone’s first verse has him addressing Blackbeard directly, by telling him exactly what he'd do to him:
-->'''Capone: (at Blackbeard)''' "I'll use that fuse in your hat to light up you and your buddies,"
-->"Then burn your sailboat down and collect the insurance money."
-->"Then maybe they'll find your bloated body dead and washed up on the beach."
-->"This is Capone rappin'. I'm cappin' this Captain, capiché?"
*** Capone follows that one up with another one, during his second verse:
-->'''Capone:''' "I'm the MC assassin, slash like Edward Kenway. [[PunctuatedForEmphasis Rap. So. HARD]], [[JustForPun call me "Al. Dente."]]

* DiabolicalMastermind: Capone's running an "intricate criminal syndicate, so show respect".

* ManOfWealthAndTaste: Just look at Capone’s suit and wonder how he paid for it.
* TheMafia: Capone is one of the most notorious mob bosses in American history, and it definitely shows here.
* MeaningfulBackgroundEvent: In the background during Blackbeard's second verse, his crew can be seen stealing goods from Capone's gang.

* NiceHat: Blackbeard's got a black pirate hat, while Capone dons a white fedora.
* NervesOfSteel: Capone is not only completely unfazed by his opponent's lines, but in fact dismisses Teach outright.

* ThePigpen: Capone makes fun of Blackbeard’s filthy living conditions.
-->'''Al Capone:''' The only legend you left is your prohibition on soap!\\

* ProductPlacement: The episode begins and ends with a blink-and-you-miss-it plug for ''VideoGame/AssassinsCreedIVBlackFlag,'' whose producers developed the CGI for Blackbeard's ship.
* RedAndBlackAndEvilAllOver: Blackbeard's a vicious criminal (by his own admission) and his entire color palette is red and black (with touches of gold).
* RedBaron: Blackbeard calls himself "the High Seas Caesar."
* RedOniBlueOni: Blackbeard is the more energetic of the two. Meanwhile, Capone’s presence is intense but he is not as expressive as Blackbeard. Their dynamic is further [[ColorCodedForYourConvenience emphasized by Blackbeard’s bright red coat and Capone’s deep blue suit.]]
* SharpDressedMan: Al shows up for the battle decked out in a three-piece suit, a trench coat, and a fedora.
* SlasherSmile: In Blackbeard’s intro he has this crazy look on him.

* TalkLikeAPirate: Blackbeard is heavily into the "arrgh" accent.
* ThisIsReality: Blackbeard makes a point to defy a few common pirate tropes:
-->'''Blackbeard:''' Got no parrot on my shoulder and no rings in my ear\\
