    llyophia please go duel some good sorcs. In no world does slayer beat sorc or zerkers in an even match up.

    A (good) slayer is too mobile to be hit often by a sorc. They won't fall prey to the cheese combos that others will because they can just use tenacity and super armours.

    Edit: Obviously you have to know what to look for, it takes practice but sorcs are some of the easiest targets for slayer.
  • Equalised Slayers in BG's are silly.... They are so strong I don't even need to finish my combo to kill someone, and players in BG's tend to be really bad or just not focused on you, so you can just sneak up behind and obliterate them, even in mass pvp they're good equalised, especially when someone giga's and you pop your ICB and annihiliate them all.

    Outside of BG's we suck, full stop.
  • Slayer S Tier when I play it. I'm a slayer powerhouse. Meet me on the corners of get fkd.

    Said one of the most clueless slayers on earth. Lol. You won't even touch above average sorcs let alone beat them.

    Slayers lose in 1v1 against everything. Period. There is nothing a slayer does that cannot be countered easily.

    D-Stance Zerk is the most broken 1v1 class in this whole game and this waste of digital space list puts them on B tier.

    No Cyclone as a minus. Lol. Facepalmed.
  • Well.... I feel like Slayers do well against Archers, I don't struggle as much compared to other classes, Ninja's too and Reapers if you can read them and adapt but ofc those last two really depends on the player himself.

    Block classes is where Slayers will get royally fked and Sorc too....

    They'll make you want to quit your class but then you remember Slayers are fun af despite being one of the weakest classes.
  • Coool don't make me gear my Slayer and Skype Syke to come back :^)

    Real talk though, why does everyone think using nostroms in duels is good?
  • Lancers actually have 3 direct counters.

    - Archer
    - Gunner
    - Sorc

    Archers beat up lancers before the revamp, now that lancers have 800 resolve backstep there is no reason to lose to a lancer as an archer.

    Sorcs can now jaunt stagger stun trap behind block because 3m + is the stagger point on a lancers shield since it registers behind. There is no fighting that you have to use your 800 resolve backstep in which case their stagger can just reset and they have warp barrier so they cant be punished for jaunting in.

    Gunners decimate lancers and warriors. Period.

    Gunner vs Dstance Warrior is actually a pretty fair fight. If you are smart about it you can usually predict when gunners will use self destruct, and turn to block it right when it happens. Once the gunner loses that the Warrior basically gets ~15 or so seconds where the matchup is overall in his favor. But it's true for Lancer. Lancers in 1v1 have more unfavorable matchups than most seem to realize. It has a lot to do with knowing the matchup.

    To be totally honest this thread is silly. Basing pvp tier list on 1v1 really doesn't make sense. There is no 1v1 BG, and VO is dead half the time. A more accurate tier list should take into account both dueling and mass pvp threat potential, in which case reapers and brawlers are the true S rank.

    Another thing: Reaper in general should be considered S rank in 1v1 because of the fact that enmasses servers are [filtered]. In theory, warriors and lancer should be able to dunk on reapers. In the reality of NA, reapers with sufficiently low enough ping will always get on average 3~5 desync get-out-of-jail-frees to pull ahead. I've seen Matt/Numbnips go through a duel on his reaper with full body 100% desync during the entire fight. This is why the winner of most 1v1 tournaments on NA tends to be reapers. Melee classes will always be at a lower potential here in NA simply because this game is optimized for korean internet infrastructure which when brought over here on EMEs potato server bay translates to "gg ez no re".

    Glitchy do it and it will make this game fun for me again. On a serious note though slayer is pretty garb atm, but it isn't impossible to beat the other classes. If you work on your technique and figuring out every possible way to get better on both your defense and offense you can really become a threat. Something I would suggest to those learning Slayer is record your duels and fights and study it. Look for everything you did wrong and work to improve it. I personally have done this and it has yielded fruit. If anyone doubts the ability of slayer seriously, fight me on MT - "Coool" c:
  • Or learn from the people who taught coool :^)

    But ya he is right, you can enjoy Slayer in pvp still if you learn all the match ups well. Getting someone to teach you is a huge key too, because you aren't always able to see your own mistakes.
