Just noticed how short this theme is compared to other songs from the cast. In fact, it's the shortest song out of the entire Strive OST. Probably coz Slayer wants to settle his fight as quickly as possible. To quote that dandy devilish vamp himself: "My lovely wife is waiting. Let's make this quick."

[@theanimetomato980]

There’s also the whole haiku thing

[@etechzero6476]

Because Slayer can delete your health bar with 2 touches

[@AJAlkaline]

Slayer can't have a longer song because his damage is too high

[@NezuChan]

@@theanimetomato980 The thing I love about his haiku is that they are all randomly generated in game and Slayer is considered bad at writing them as they rarely make sense due to the randomness. The one thing the man can't do!

[@clairelili873]

@@NezuChan Oh really? Now thats very fun about slayer, even as so much time has passed he still is bad at somethings.

Haikus are 5-7-5. This is 4-7-5, It should be "Used a pilebunker" instead of just "used a pilebunker"

I really hope he'll play Haven't You Got Eyes in Your Head. It's my favourite Slayer theme. Ever since he was leaked, I've been so pumped for Slayer in Strive! He's just so cool and awesome.

[@shanegiorgio4713]

I bought Accent Core +R a while ago, and it was a pleasant surprise to hear the theme because I knew the song (it had been used in some KZbin videos I've watched in the past) but now I got to find out where it came from.

[@NezuChan]

@@shanegiorgio4713 If you mean which Guilty Gear Haven't You Got Eyes in Your Head originated from, it was Guilty Gear XX (X2), which was Slayer's first playable appearance.

[@shanegiorgio4713]

@@NezuChan I was thinking more in terms of franchise than individual game, but I appreciate the correction.

[@NezuChan]

@@shanegiorgio4713 Oh yeah. He is primarily from Guilty Gear. He did make a guest appearance in Code Shifter though. He actually does have a secondary theme in XX called Existence, but it is shared with 4 other characters and is a rivalry theme.

[@kirbyx2573]

I may not be familiar with Guilty Gear, but man Slayer's Theme is an absolute banger. And might honestly be the reason I pick up the game haha! And now Jerod covers this banger? Oh hell yea this is gonna be incredible!

*during a board meeting at an arc system works studio building, on a white board are the words “metal” and “jazz” surrounded by question marks. Person 1: “well idk, this game mainly has a rock and metal soundtrack, the words “lets rock” appear on screen at the start of every match. Plus with a hardcore sounding name like slayer you’d just be disappointed if they didn’t have a metal theme song. Person 2: “but he just gives jazzy vibes, plus i like jazz” Person 3: wordless gets up from their chair and walks over to the whiteboard. As everyone looks their way, they erase all the question marks. Then, in between the words metal and jazz, they draw a plus sign. After a few seconds the room erupts into uproarious clapping and cheering.
