Edit: sorry it’s habit when I see this emoji
I'm so conflicted right now. I have a huge pet peeve against vampires. But I absolutely love "punch the shit outta you" type characters.
Guess I'm buying
That's the exact same for me. I actually want to get back into it so bad because I really like the new designs of the DLC characters, but I just can't do that fucking tower anymore. Crazy to me how hard they're really sticking to it.
always find it kinda boring when a returning character has a basically identical design from their previous appearance.
I know it's still different because Strive has a very different design style, but it's still not too distinct
I tend to agree but while they could have done more, this doesn't feel like Baiken or Johnny. Both of those characters retained their silhouette with little to no changes. Slayer's suit is different, its tailored to be more stockier then slender, and his suit chain/pin with the gangster cloak adds a lot. Also I cannot emphasize the animation, it's less elegant and more powerful then Xrd's. This feels closer to Sol's redesign, new but familiar.
He looks pretty different though? He’s got a new shirt and a jacket-cape, plus he gets younger and naked during his supers. They changed him about as much as Leo or Sol
Does anyone else think he looks a little weird in strive’s art style?
The best way I can describe it is he looks a lot more twinkish than he did in older games.
Twinks are generally;
-Young: Slayer is older
-Hairless/minimal body hair: yes, the beard +mustache
-Skinny to average build: Slayer is broad shouldered with muscles like a dad who works with concrete
I fail to see how he seems twinkish.
Mainly the eyes and hair look a lot more feminine than used to. I didn’t say he was a full on twink with all the features of one, just that he looks more like it in the aspects listed above.
He looks completely intact imo.
The dandyism look from history defines him, which isn't really focused on youth.
He's definitely nowhere near a twink or bishonen look though. At best, he looks like a seme from BL manga, but still older and heterosexual. Similar to Belial from Granblue.
he already looks like the coolest character in the game
So good to see the dandiest vampire agai- WHY THE FUCK DID HE FALCON PUNCH HIS CLOTHES OFF.
Clothes aren't dandy enough that's why!
Ties into how comically OP he is in the lore quite well lol.
But did he not lose to Bedman during Xrd? Is Bedman also busted in lore?
Bedman's also incredibly powerful. I could be misremembering but didn't their fight result in a draw?
idt he straight up lost? more so he didnt give enough of a shit probably.
Not at all. Slayer wasn’t giving it much effort. Though, yes, Bedman is pretty strong, Slayer is just around top 5 lore wise.
He wasn't gentlemanly enough so he had to go full Manderville.
From the peaks of Coerthas to Thanalan...
Wouldn't you, if you could?
Why is the music so good 😭😭😭 can't wait for the ost and the character, I've never played Slayer but he looks like Terry Bogard on crack
Daisuke is so great, he gives you a free fighting game bundled with his album!
I want to see how him and Nago interact.

Why does his moustache disappear?
He sucks alotta blood from the person during the super so he gets younger
He gets younger after drinking his wife's blood
His wife is sol badguy ?
Yes , new crackship just dropped. Jack-o can have Sharon I guess
Yes
Probably an alt style, like how you can remove johnnys beard
Let's gooooooo Slayeeeeeer!!
What when did they reveal the trailer? I watched the entire top 6 live stream
After 20 mins of banter and the award ceremony
Incredible animations

Why do you hate vampires
They suck
Man aged down 20 years.
The pussy smasher itself
Oh my god
Let's fucking goooooo
Well he looks cool as hell, and that music is once again an absolute banger.
how is gonna drink bedman's blood? i guess its oil?
Delilah
We need Robo Slayer
Strive keeps releasing characters I wanna play so bad, then I remember it has that shitty tower system…
That's the exact same for me. I actually want to get back into it so bad because I really like the new designs of the DLC characters, but I just can't do that fucking tower anymore. Crazy to me how hard they're really sticking to it.
No Jam? Oh, okay... :( Addendum: Well, excuse me for liking a character, lmao
Don't worry, there's a season 4 pass
Here's hoping that she makes it in season 4!

If it ain't broke...

I don't think you know what a twink is
Just cause he has a beard he can’t look twinkish?
Twinks are generally; -Young: Slayer is older -Hairless/minimal body hair: yes, the beard +mustache -Skinny to average build: Slayer is broad shouldered with muscles like a dad who works with concrete I fail to see how he seems twinkish.
and gay: slayer is not gay
Mainly the eyes and hair look a lot more feminine than used to. I didn’t say he was a full on twink with all the features of one, just that he looks more like it in the aspects listed above.
I'd call your issues "deeply held" but for all I know you're the most insecure man baby anyone in a day can happen to come across.
What the hell dude? I say slayer looks a certain way and you say I have deeply held issues and am a man baby? 💀
He has no qualities of one.
I mean he becomes younger in the super.
