Template:Ratings Slayer is a popular gametype found in the Halo Trilogy of games. The object of the game is simply to kill as many opposing players as possible. This is done in teams of anywhere from 2-8 in Team Slayer, or all by yourself in a FFA (Free For All) match.
Included Variants
The following variations are found in Halo 3 Matchmaking.
Swords
- Each player will start with a Energy Sword and two frag grenades. There are no weapons on the map except grenades, although equipment and turrets remain the same.
Slayer BRs
- Each player starts with a Battle Rifle along with the standard Assault Rifle.
- Everything else remains the same.
Hammerzeit
- All players start with a Gravity Hammer and two frag grenades. There are no weapons on the map except grenades, although pick-ups and turrets remain. This is an infrequent gametype. This also seems to appear only in Rumble Pit.
