I cannot wait for when Slayer comes out in Strive and people complain about him. He is the epitome of Strive. He was playing Strive before it was cool.
I was honestly surprised he wasn't base roster given how little they would need to alter in his kit.
voice actor died
@@kng4822 please say sike
@@glassofmeat X2 and Sign's died a while ago. Rev's is possibly a shoe in because they couldn't remove a character from the expansion's roster. Daisuke's vision of Slayer could be that it has to have a specific character voicing it, if the voice actor passes away then the character should too. Guess we'll see.
Same theory exists with Heihachi for Tekken 8 apparently.
@@kng4822 but Zato's original VA died and he still made it in Strive. Not saying you're wrong, just that would be weird of Daisuke to draw that line with Slayer
"Slayer is real Guilty Gear by the way."
Glad LK always knows what's up.
The Strive Players complaining about High Damage were all Slayer Players who realized that the meme potential would be lost if everyone died midway through the first counter hit. They're just thinking ahead is all.
LK's headset hanging on for dear life
Slayer is the funniest character for me personally. His entire attitude is "idgaf lol ggs" and when he does a single special into 35% I just cant help but laugh.
Super excited to see that special again in Strive where it does 60%, I will be laughing my ass off every time I get hit by it
Slayer's Personality: "This damage is some bullshit, why not have a good time about it?"
He even influences Sol's win quote vs Nago "You got NOTHING on the old man" LMFAO He coming back soon get ready.
Not to double post but my favourite GG tweet is one that Teresa made about Slayer (paraphrasing):
'a Slayer player guarding is rarer than the birth of a baby turtle'
4:48 Oh my god THE SMUG in that walk!
2:03 I definitely agree. Feel the same about Nagoriyuki too - why do vampires have to have great visual designs but play so obnoxious in GG hahaha
Dandyism takes no prisoners.
"If badass gimmicks you possess - annoyance will occurre"
- Arts of War I guess
nago is like the least obnoxious character in strive lmao. he just has good normals which sucks for people who hate blocking
@@nicolastoe8328 nah he is annoying
Because they can telaport and bite you
9:00 Taka was fighting Lost Soul, it was the evo japan 2019 casuals. He got kinda washed in this set but the power of Slayer allows him to steal rounds.
@LordKnight I think the reason people complain about the damage being too high is because it takes less to get to a point where you're 3-touching characters. In earlier GG's, you would have to lab out a more complicated bnb to do the same damage as a regular bnb in strive. That being said, I haven't play any of the GG's in a while and this is based off my memories, so this point is already pretty shakey.
i find it funny how he flip flops between "i like slayer he's pretty cool :)" to "i FUCKING HATE slayer"
“We are playing characters not in strive” aged like milk, here hoping for the next one being slayer to completely invalidate the statement.
Welp.
See, my biggest issue in strive is the way combos can feel in the game due to things like the gravity scaling. In xrd it felt so good to launch your opponent into the air, and characters like slayer and Johnny had insanely satisfying and fun combos to pull off because of it. Launching someone with mist finer and getting that wall bounce felt so good, or doing slayers j2k loops just felt natural with the properties of the moves. When I’m doing Kou loops with Anji it just feels super stiff and unsatisfying when the characters feel like they have a magnet on their back that is pulling them to the ground. It just doesn’t feel natural.
When slayer drops in strive, PLEASE keep dead on time with its properties intact 🙏
I'm so ready for Strive Slayer to do 50% off one counter hit pile bunker.
So little?
*only* 50%??!
Let me tell you, in Xrd, he does about 50%+ meterless on Sol from a CH pile at round start position, when he gets in Strive it's party time.
I'm honestly half-expecting pilebunker to wall break instantly when at the edge, like heat knuckle, which could turn a lot of CH pile bunkers into less damage but truckloads of free tension. It just *looks* like it should punch someone completely out into space, so wall break property makes thematic sense.
I hope he does that with his reversal super, like the annoying piece of shit with 2 swords that is already in the game
Mfs will say, "old games had high damage too" then show slayer hitting counterhit pilebunker on zato 💀
put my boy in strive please, anji not cuttin it for me. You feel me, I need the smoke from the bat cave. high low throw repeat.
Say what you will about Slayer, but god I love watching Hase play. Shame the compilation doesn't do justice to how good he actually is.
slayer lives rent free in the nightmares of zoners
Tell me more
Watching this on phone and laughing my ass off at the channel icon floating over LK's face cam
Anything is more hype than strive footage
The reason I say the damage is too high in strive is because of combo length/complexity to damage ratio. The combos are shorter and simpler in strive but do just as much if not more damage than the combos in xrd.
EXACTLY
You're really not wrong about the lack of blocking. Greatest defense against Slayer is to 2D as soon as he teleport's towards you.
Edit: Mother of God. A a Dizzy main I felt every punch of those final rounds in my soul.
I think he means the slayer players, since they have wakeup BDC
@@Sporkyz74 and that's just Xrd, in +R we have fb dandy step too for the synergy
some of these clips make me think they should raise strive's damage
God I hope we get Slayer at some point in strive.
Better check out the datamine found months ago,hes amongst the 5 they called out and 4 out of the 5 made it in..
If he's not the last character for this season pass then he'll be one of the first in the next one.
@@LemmingMartyr Highly likely hes in,the datamine is 4 for 5 due to the voicelines they found and that Arc Systems then removed from their files because it showed too much. mainly Slayers voice lines.
“That’s Randy that’s not Ragna”. Lmao.
Its THE Slayer, of course its gonna be hype!
Slayer counter hits are gonna hit so much harder in GG Strive and I am absolutely here for it.
Watching high level slayer footage makes me wish I'd played Xrd more seriously. So goddamn cool
Alright, for the people who want to compare Slayer to Nagoriyuki:
Slayer's teleport is not a special move like Nagoriyuki's is, it's his NORMAL dash. It can also change sides, it can be jump cancelled whenever, and it's invincible, and Slayer has no restrictions about using it.
Slayer's annoying because he hits like a Truck with some of the highest damage output in game and he can also weasel his way out of almost any pressure at any time.
I really hope they'll announce Slayer after Bacon is out, I'm getting tired of blocking and doing combos in Strive.
Hopefully I won't need to deal with wallbreak, since they'll die before ever reaching it.
The excuse they make for damage is the combos are longer and the single hit damage is lower. Not like it matters
Great vid, we better be getting Venom next
2:11 spitting fact, my friend clown on me for picking Valkenhayn, "it's just budget slayer" my ass
It’s always a good day to see Daymendou. But yeah Slayer is the creator of robbery rounds in GG
The older, cooler vampire brother is coming, brace yourselves
New end screen nice
Yo, these videos are a great 👌 excuse to talk old Guilty Gear
Ok but can we talk about how he got two touched against a wall and Strive as a game literally puts everything in the world to prevent that 🤣🤣
slayer mains unite
The statement has been invalidated cause slayer just got revealed
Show me your dandyism
PLEASE I've been waiting for slayer in strive for so long I need it
It seems like Slayer was made to be in Strive and Dizzy being added would made all the gorillas cry until they get in and kill her in one combo.
Not enough lucid button masher clips
Slayer is everything I want in a character
Humanity knew they cannot change society,
But the damage in Strive was too high.
It was a 100% meter combo sheeash
Whoa new outro, nice
Dude is doing strive levels of damage before strive even came out lol
I know gg always had high damage but lk i know you know slayer was a counter hit demon since day one. He does abnormally high damage on counterhit.
surprised this didnt have the daymendou v bears anime ascension highlight
Fuck defense. I like vampires.
I agree with most of what LK said there, tbh. However, the thing about dmg in Xrd is that SL is kind of the King there, regarding dmg only. Sure, other characters may put you in a bad position and repeat shit over and over with godly buttons, like EL and JO, but dmg by itself, maybe SL, LE, MA and POT are the ones who are up there, and everyone else is kinda below in that department.
When you jump to strive, is like everyone except Faust drank some of the old man's blood and just keeps pumping dmg up like crazy (sorry Milia, maybe).
My actual think (my excuse) about slayer is he definitely is already in Guilty Gear Strive, he just ain’t playable yet.
As in I actually don’t think they’ll change him at all, nothing.
In conclusion: The damage in Strive is just too high.
Genuine question. Why is strike/throw considered “interact-able” but 50/50 isn’t? I’ve always thought the idea of trying to block the 50/50 and then trying to get out of the situation is “interact-able”.
Good question. Strike throw is considered interaction because both the attacker and defender can select and both chars can act.
Millia's style of 50/50 is one-sided in that the defending character has limited or zero options outside of blocking.
Slayer do be out here doing mad damage, but I think it’s kinda cap to say that the average damage of Strive is not noticeably higher/the average amount of interactions needed to lose in Strive is lower. Even characters like Johnny need 3-4 hits to kill unless u get hit with absolute meme stuff, meanwhile taking meme damage in Strive is literally just “You got hit by cS, the characters best option for pressure”
I think it mostly comes from conversion ability + the game being more grounded (so more opportunities for big hits with S or H normals) more than anything else
@@lordknightfgc Hmmm, interesting. That could be a reason why. Personally I think that it’s cuz in Xrd, a lot of times you have to choose between your best pressure starters and best combo starters, and that cS wasn’t the best at that in every character, it was just a good mix of that on most characters, instead of Strive where basically every character is hoping you got hit by cS counter hit so they can delete you and go to the next round
Triple up on the dk music with jam next lmao
Imagine lol
Every Slayer clip is hype. Thems the rules.
Bro they gotta make Sharon a playable character
I always point to Slayer when people say high damage characters aren't what GG is about. Nothing feels as good as landing a pile bunker
bruh who the fuck says high damage characters isnt what GG is about?
@@HiNi. lots of people since strive came out
Slayer for Strive!!
Please let slayer keep bdc and his good frame data in strive. I’m so tired of playing nago, but he’s the only character that feels good in my hands to play. I want my plus buttons.
「Slayer is true GuiltyGear btw」, the deep true lord.
Counter hit pile bunker into the lobby
LMAO
from my low-amateur-ass perspective-
Xrd Slayer always did high damage but has always had characters better than him keeping him in check - those who can't just chunk a lifebar like he does, so it essentially works out.
and strive for the most part still feels like you're doing better damage than Xrd Slayer for way less.
Maybe peep Biscuits's highlights. My favorite commentator btw lol
Man shows one of the highest damage starters in the entire game and is like "see the damage has always been high" bro strive sol gets that shit off a f.S
Damage has always been high cope about it
You realize everyone in xrd gets craxy damage off 6p counterhit right, why are you coping
@@THENEPTUNEGAMER true but one of slayer's gimmicks is his insane damage
I'm sure everyone here has perfect execution so shit dont matter, gotta huff copium for my 3 hits doin 50% :^)
@@Possiblylowtier i mean yea same as sol to a certain degree
that big ass fuckin combo that Slayer did is a god damn BnB in strive that’s why the damage is too high
Do one for Johnny and Venom
Strive slayer is gonna be able to tod someone from round start ch pilebunker
I gotta wonder if they are gonna add blood meter on Slayer.
I hope they don't, just to keep slayer similar to how he was, and keep this as nice unique thing for nagoryuki
@@MissingMeep Yeah I think it wouldn't make sense for Slayer to have one, especially since he drains Sharon at the start of rounds anyway. Also I kinda got the impression that Slayer is much older than Nago and might have greater control over himself.
They will add a Sharon meter
if he gets in strive i just want him to be fun to play fuck everything else
Really hope Slayer hits Strive this year. Loved that character in XRD.
Haven’t played any GG except strive, it looks like Giovanna has a very similar character function?
Not really no
Well, if you look at their very basic components, you could say their similar since they both are good rushdown characters. But realistically I think leo is a closer character to slayer function-wise as both character have trouble getting around but have incredible pressure and 50/50s (although leo def has better neutral and more traditional tools such as a normal reversal and fireballs).
I am obligated by law to make excuses for old GG damage: At least you couldn't just loop the same special twice into super for 60% like every Strive character can, you actually had to work for it. (unless you're slayer, ironically)
id love to see one for zato, not enough representation for him
are there characters people like, at all?
Are you planning on making any blazblue content?
How do they not have the counter hit god in strive yet?
People needed time to prepare. To ready themselves for the idea of being exploded through a wall with every pilebunker to give old man vamp unlimited tension.
They're still not ready.
johnny next?
5:48 um lk it's Slayer damage soooooo
goated video, but the damage in Strive is too high.
7:20 pour one out for Ain
I have high hopes for Slayer in Strive. I highly highly prefer Strive style combos to Xrd style combos. I just hope he won't have the backdash into jump into special, or make dashes cancellable to specials directly so the input is not as obnoxious.
i hope for the opposite of everything you just said because i need people to be miserable whenever slayer is on screen in strive
Well, one of us will be very happy and one of us will be very dissapointed.
@@armorparade yes
2:07 i will never agree with anything more then this. I love slayers design and character and in game he looks cool but his gameplay is just :(
I mean if you really want to prove the damage was always high in GG then why not show Sol and Ky fighting each other in a couple of different games like Xrd, +R, and Strive.
Slayer is one of my favorite gg characters
But like
how could he be in strive? With that games damage would Slayer just always one touch you
"Pretty easy to combo"
Doesn't Slayer operate entirely (or mostly) on links? F*ck links btw
Mostly links and late gatlings but the difficulty of links is one of those things were some people find them easy as fuck and other find them impossible
@@THENEPTUNEGAMER Links are impossible to me
I either mash or give up
Every time I play SF it's either grapplers or a character full of target combos
He has late gatlings plus links. I somewhat misspoke here though, I meant his conversion ability is good and to me that means easy, which is my fault
@@lordknightfgc Nah, man it's ok
I never touched the character, and just thought I was missing something because I couldn't do anything with him in training mode
@@Sorrelhas same here anything less than a six frame link is mad inconsistent for me
Slayer players never block....now I know why people want him in the game and now I don't want to be 😂
There's no chance they're keeping wakeup BDC in Strive
There are not enough moves with duration to fight against slayer in strive
Slayer is always hype, what do you mean?
Is Slayer's damage indicative of Xrd's average damage?
Slayer is a high damage character in Rev2
Most full combos in Xrd do 40-60%, so Slayer is a high damage character
Wait, weren't you an AC player mostly for your GGXX days ?
And you're NOT mad at top tier Slayer ? I get fucking nightmares looking at AC Slayer jH hitbox.
I didn't play the game competitively lol. I played ACR for like 3 months when rollback got added
Slayer is such a cool character but man his playstyle is not for me. Ive tried to play him a good few times and its just not there, smh.
you want people to stop capping about damage? you asking too much out of the people who watch leo matches and pretend he can get in for free cause they tune out anything that isnt a combo or a mixup
zoner narrative
This is an actual brain dead take.
Spoiler: Anything involving Slayer is hype
Strive literally 1 combo does 80% this video of Slayer doing two combos that are legit require some decent skill and does 70-80% like strive dmg is way higher then Xrd in regards of per combo.
Also isn't like most of the Health bar in Xrd only like 1/4 of someone's max HP like that last orange bit of the HP is most of someone's health pool.
Very few combos require much practice, big misconception about combos
Players will do what they have to do and that's it. Just because it's "harder" usually doesn't excuse the damage
@@lordknightfgc I'm getting at most people can't execute combos with Slayer I've played Xrd for enough time to see that strive didn't fix any issue I had with Xrd it just made the game way less fun
strive damage is not high, it's just the combo's short that makes people think so.
No one is gonna tell you damage isnt high in guilty gear. Its the fact that Strive's damage is just too fucking high and you can get it off some braindead shit with no effort. Also, were looking at Slayer here, thats his thing.
Slayer doesnt count
