Many people might think Slayer struggles in this matchup due to inability of dash block, but Slayer's Mappa Hunch is surprisingly annoying for Axl. Somehow a well-rounded and strong character like Sol is easier to handle than Slayer. Axl has to either preemptively use 2P/2HS, or instant block and throw punish to prevent Slayer approaching by Mappa Hunch. The former one leaves Axl vulnerable to aerial approach like IAD or dash cancel jump, while the latter one requires solid blocking skill and isn't really rewarding. Slayer can just keep gambling, and once he gets in, Axl can hardly get away.
I am heavily glad. He gets better design than his earlier versions. Which makes him boring to watch. Unless i need a better colour to play him. GGX i always love to mess around with him. I always wanted to do Rashou shen.
1:24 hell nah, axl got the imperials shoes 💀
A true brit
playing the axl vs slayer match up has made me the joker irl
6:45 Jesus... he evened up the hp in an instant. This slayer has sauce
Lowest damage Slayer combo tbh
No slayer just broken , scrub character

It was hype by Slayer standards.
...That's not saying much. This character is fucking broken.

I want to see someone that can beat Slayer
it would've been potemkin but slayer is massively overtuned
Certainly not me :)
Hopefully that googles wearing girl behind Sin and Sol in the anime poster
Probably a Sin player, he can slide under mappa and his offense chokes the defense poor Slayer to death.
Stop mashing
0:29 Are you enjoying the ride?
this couls be in will it kill
Axl is that one character you think he’s miserable to play but it turns out he’s actually really fun. Unless you’re fighting him…
