This works extremely well in tournament play, because it's usually heated enough to fill your tension gauge easily. Are you having trouble with the combo parts after too?
Boost gauge tells you if you can pull off your "focus" move in order to cast your insta-death move on the opponent. This isn't very effective unless you have a lot of tension. Your tension bar will turn into another bar, and that will show you how long you are boosted for. After that, your only worthwhile move is your instadeath move. I never found it competent with May, because the move isn't the normal 653653H. May's is more like 9865398653H, and you have to be RIGHT beside your opponent to boot. Annoying.
You only have one chance to perform your insta-death move. After that, you're left with NO bar if it's a miss. Not cool at all.
But yes, Slayer is a great character.

Yeah, the hardest part about the Roman Cancel is getting a combo to follow it. I read that you can use Roman Cancels to create your own combo's...though I havnt got that to work it. It said in the instruction book to use a roman cancel halfway through another attack...but I dont know how this helps me make my own combo's.
But then again I read Slayer isnt a good combo character, so maybe that's why.
I can take you on a 12 hit air combo joy ride with him, though.
I just beet story mode with him today, and I'm thinking about mastering a different type of character...of the fast combo variety. Maybe Axl Low or Chipp.
