Slayer Thoughts

[OptimusSlime]

Congrats, you all cried about Nago for years, now you get the most carried, over tuned charecter in ggst. Can kill Nago from full in one cross screen combo lmao.

[somthing fishy]

he is op but smash

[Hoob]

nearly every move or situation has an answer, he also can get zoned very easily with pokes

[big_kwii]

learn to play the neutral bruv

Nago got 3x more reach than Slayer, and also better blockstrings. Learn the match up.

[dash slamson]

he has no weaknesses other than lack of a dp, but with his damage and plusframes all the time - its hardly matters. but i still think that slayer is not as outrageous as leo or nago tbh

[YellowFlashKid]

Still don't see Slayer being better than Nago currently. Nago has more reach and more HP probably. Slayer while having constant 50/50s, if you keep him at a distance, you have pretty much control of the match.

While I'm still learning the character, Slayer falls short when it comes to range. He has 5K, 6H and 2D, but other than those buttons, he has to be right up your ass for his other normals to hit. Dandy Step can be mashed out so you can't really go unga bunga with it. Out of all 4 options from Dandy Step, I think only the H button is very plus. The rest are punishable on block.

Nago has neutrals skips like beyblade and clone which are quite fast. While Slayer can use K Mappa Hunch to close the distance, you can't cancel into other specials like Nago after a beyblade. Depending on the blood level, Nago can hit you from more than half-screen away and has stupid damage.

I hope after they release the last planned dlc character that they re-release ALL the characters so you can complain about them all over again while I continue to drink heavily because this is my life now

[RavenHunter]

Mapa K needs some down tuning and maybe the effectivenes of his super but otherwise he functions well in this game.
His defense mostly sucks so Ky, Nago, Sin and other top tiers can easily put him down a bit.

[JJJohhh]

He's one of those characters that can kill you by accident. Show no mercy or hesitation against Slayer cause he ain't gon' give it to you!
