https://clips.twitch.tv/shiraishu/AdorableLouseRedCoat does this look like a zerk to you? :^)
BM Castle is BM. No one wants to be reminded they can get kicked out of a house.
1 - Cs? Oh ok im going to one combo almost every class with Reaper. And of course i can kd a lot of players at same time, ranged attacks and Whipsaw.
2 - Overpower? You know that overpower just work for the first skill you hit after you use it right?
3 - Check the gear on the video, the guy have a +15 Vm7
If they didnt changed anything when i left slayer should be "Reroll Tier" for pvp.
overpower looks impressive reading, but in practice does not much change. I did a test here and the additional damage sucks.
Sure, some classes just need to randomly press the space bar to do some damage and even win some PvP's, but all that matters in this game is to master your choice, exploit and learn everything you can do and find your ways around PvP with the class you feel comfortable using.
I've been using Slayer, it's not good or bad for PvP, I simply can make it because I know when to move in and when to back off. Sure, if I get a Reaper I just have to spam combos, but that only works for a while, if you find an experienced Slayer or Berzerker that knows his class well you won't land many combos.
The PvP discussion would be more consistent if this was an old school target lock PvP, but it's not, it's an action game where you can actually move and decide stuff on a fast paced level where skill overcomes class pros and cons.
The only thing you can measure is difficulty. All other stuff is measured by your dedication and knowledge on the game itself.
Try and fight an actual good warr or reaper whos been ranked in 3s then tell me slayer isn't bad in pvp when you lose literally 100% of the time. I don't care where this game isn't balanced in 1v1 bc thats where slayer should be strongest given their kit but theyre not, they're about the weakest 1v1 class next to archer and it only gets worse as you add more ppl. Once you get to 10v10 and more like in fwc slayer is just a useless class taking up a slot that could be taken by a reaper/brawler/lancer/gunner/sorc/archer instead. If you are still playing slayer in 2016 and queueing pvp bgs you are dragging down your team, sorry but that's just the state of pvp in this game.
sad reality
Though I agree they have it pretty rough atm.
Go ahead and fight numbnips or luxrays then if you're that "skilled". truth is even if you icb you cant do [filtered] cause slayer is garbage, reaper will eat you alive before you even land a single hit and even if you do they'll just pop retribution and the 4 skills you blew to land a single hit on them will be on cd for longer than the duel will last.
Slayer has been literal bottom tier in pvp for over 3 years now. even when they were "strong" at lvl 65 launch they weren't really strong they just had damage. damage doesnt do anything if you don't have the tools to land a single combo. it was easy to dumpster idiots and brs in cs back then cause eviscerate caught them by suprise sometimes, but now not only do slayers not have that damage but people are mostly used to their pvp 65 playstyle. 1v1 reaper or warr vs slayer even at 65 launch they would still stun/stagger you for 90% of the duel and pretty much 1 combo you unless they were bad or in bad gear.
i'm not complaining to spread awareness in hopes of the class finally getting the buffs it needs to be competitive because i've long given up hope for that, i just think its funny how many people clearly don't play slayer think how their opinion on the current state of slayer in pvp is somehow more valid than people who have mained the class for years, and that there are people that unironically think slayer belongs anywhere but in the very bottom of a dumpster.
Pmuch this. Ninja can stagger pressure and burst out crazy numbers with more mobility than slayers. Warriors are exact same with the exception of having a 4 second stun on backstab that can be prolonged. I can fair well against brawlers, but they have more burst than slayers that also includes the ability to block and attack. Gunslingers are doable, but I can't afford to get staggered or stunned at close range because of a 100 to 0 combo. Every other class pretty much hits harder than slayer, so one mistake means your done for.
This is the most truthful tier for Slayers.
I already know reapers shits on slayers. Especially when slayers fight good reapers. And I already know numbnips would make a lot of slayers cry if they tried fighting him. I'm just saying it's pretty satisfying getting a kill on a better class even though you're at a clear disadvantage.
Not trying to say slayers aren't [filtered] compared to other classes. I know they're bottom tier. Just something I wanted to share.
I've played a slayer for years, and I agree with you. Against a really good reaper it's basically a 9 - 1 match up in a reaper's favor.
