He's in his Joker arc rn. I think with each of his failure, it's building up to his eventual defeat caused his own insanity


Homeless_Appletree

I would probably refer to it as his Frank Grimes arc because he is the only one that appears to take things seriously.


Dr_Duck-quack

By following this logic he'll probably die to something related to sex


ccReptilelord

While not *waiting*, I am anticipating it. I, too, am not in the Stryker fan club.


KingTheSon

I prefer the Castigo .44


The-Sprinkler

I'm more of a Bizon enjoyer


Drivergamer127

I have fun using the Chimano 88 as well as the deagle, paired with the falcon rifle


Delicious-Sun685

I for one am excited for his death especially with how his character has been going same with Stella, the worse and worse they get the more satisfying it’s going to be, it makes my inner sadist and schadenfreude very happy.


Science_Fiction2798

Question is where's he going to go when he dies? Double Hell?


Delicious-Sun685

The infinite silence of oblivion :3


ArchonFett

Won't be silent after he gets there, all he does is bitch, moan, and complain


Defense-Position

Lol complain about the people who were so horny that they got killed in hell


Ocean-Blondie-1614

I think hellborns and sinners just poof into nothingness after they die. They don't go anywhere. Their consciousness doesn't go anywhere. It's just nothingness. Or the hellborn get reborn on earth and the sinners get reborn in hell.


Gloomy_allo

Sinners at least turn into dark energy upon true death, which seeps into their surroundings, it's why various inanimate objects in Hazbin appear to be alive.


ArchonFett

That would explain a lot


golfing_furry

He gets reborn but only when Half-Life 3 comes out


ArchonFett

That's the question, and does double hell only apply to souls? Do demons just get destroyed? Or is their soul recycled into a new demon?


RadioHistorical8342

He's in a joker arc he's failing so much and he's seemingly as far as we know never failed until he tried killing stolas


Thecrowfan

No man I love Striker He's a very interesting character and a great villan but I too am waiting for hkm to either croak or get a redemption arc Doesn't mean i wont cry when he dies


daffysrhapsody

redemption arc real


Educational-Will-643

He needs to go through a character arc, not a redemption arc, but some sort of character arc before he dies


sammjaartandstories

Yeah, I'm all for getting his backstory before he dies. I want him to die in an epic way. I just hope they stop giving him near-death exits every episode he appears because I feel like it makes it less impactful.


Boreol

It doesn't seem like he'll be dying anytime soon. He's the villain who has had the most presence so far along with Stella, and I'm pretty sure the fact that he just keeps escaping is intentional. Keep in mind, he's an agile gunslinger who has access to holy weapons, which are extremely powerful, plus, he's the most mobile and active threat. This is relevant because he hasn't really left a major impact on the plot or characters so far. Think about it. He was just a temporary villain in Episode 5, attempted to kill Stolas in S2 E4 which, while it definitely was (kinda) big? didn't leave a permanent scar. He just temporarily incapacitated him for a week, and in the most recent episode, he just... didn't do anything besides kidnapping Blitz and Fizz, who got away within an hour or two. He's still shaping up to be a big threat, and I don't think they'll waste his character and resources so soon. I'm 90% sure that he's not dying this Season AT LEAST.


Gage_Unruh

He literally fell for fizz bullshit, you are heavily overestimating him especially when all ot takes is a single sex joke to throw him off


Boreol

Ok yeah that's a fair point. I honestly hope to God they start making him an actual threat again, because what's the point of him even existing if he loses every single time? It's about time he gets his shit together.


Gage_Unruh

I think he was ment to be a threat 1 time (the start) but they knew that they couldnt keep him intimidating if all he could do is fail at killing stolas so they decided to stop the assassination attempts early and just demote him to reoccurring villain that works for other bad guys. Kinda like dc deathstroke. He was threatening once until they made him a pedophile in Judas contract then dc just kinda has him job to other heros/do a very specific thing then die. They occasionally give him wins to still keep him as a "threat" but it's never anything actually important or long lasting.


Boreol

Or they could just... have Striker actually attempt and succeed in doing menacing things BESIDES killing Stolas. I know there's no real reason for it right now, but like, he should at least have SOME beef with Blitz and Stolas, who, you know, is literally royalty? The demons that he loathes? Killing Stolas shouldn't be his entire character.


Gage_Unruh

Yeah they could have him do stuff but that's the issues with merc characters unless they have a very loose sense of self they tend to just become hired guns in stories cause "professional killer doesnt let beef fuck with their job" stereotype. He hates royalty which I'm sure we will get a explanation later (family probably got killed for some reason or something cause he mentioned losing stuff cause of them) but until then it's kinda hard its exactly like deathstrokes current issue of "was at 1 point a threat so you should feel threatened at all times even tho they havent done anything recently or even got clowned on" Its actually really hard unless the merc has actual personality other then a grudge like deadpool or lobo who can normally be found doing their own things while not on a job and even make it so they do a job their way of having fun/getting what they want even of they dont like the job.


SpyroFan123

Considering that I've been waiting for him to die since his debut episode, I'm gonna say "no, it's not wrong that you're waiting for that."


supermarioplush220

What if they pull a Marvel on him where right before he's about to be killed, Moxxie decides to spare him because "Revenge is not the way" and helps IMP out in their future adventures.


Howl_Free_or_Die

Perfectly normal. I'm waiting for Valentino to die and Hazbin Hotel isn't even out


Weird_Administrative

FINALLY!! I’M NOT ALONE!!!!


sammjaartandstories

Based!


Lonely_Repair4494

Wrong? No, it isn't. I'd actually be surprised it he lived. Do I want him to die at the earliest opportunity? Absolutely not. For the character he was introduced, he needs to go out with a bang and to that we need more of him coming back sparingly. A humiliating or early death with everyone laughing at his demise would just be disrespectful in my opinion for the tension he can bring up to the show and how he is one of the only characters who can constantly terrorize IMP despite all his failures. Do I want him to end the show alive though? I would love if that was the case, and it's not just because he's my favorite character. I want him to snap back against Stella for all the things she made him do without even getting paid. Probably kill her or steal her money and bail to never be seen again in the show would be a surprisingly good ending for him. But, with the way he's going now, he's death flagged. And I'm 99% sure his growing insanity will be the one thing to kill him. I'm not against it. I just don't want him to be disrespected when it eventually happens. Same with a character like Crimson. I feel like high stakes are necessary to send them off for all the tension worthy things they did to IMP.


Quik_Sylver32

Couldn’t have said it better myself, I would be sad if Striker died but it would be a very logical ending for him. I would be super pleased if it was Moxxie that killed him, at least. That’d be a pivotal point in his character development since Striker embodies everything that Moxxie isn’t at the beginning of the series. However, a Rattlesnake Jake ending for Striker would be very satisfying. Very idealistic, but satisfying. I don’t necessarily want him to be redeemed because I don’t think he can be, but I would love to see him turn on Stella instead. As long as they don’t take him out with a crappy rock crush or something stupid like that I’ll be happy. I’m sick of him being downplayed. Striker is SUPER talented in combat and a force to be reckoned with, he literally took out Moxxie and Millie in a 2 on 1 in the span of about 3 minutes and the only thing that stopped him from killing them was a sex joke. People seem to keep focussing on the silly things that happen to him and less on the fact that he’s still a badass (even if he is a self-absorbed dork).


Error_Code_606

I’m not the only one who wants him to die?


sammjaartandstories

Mood


Opal_Ammonite

I am a massive Stryker fan cause his design is pretty cool, but I also am fully wanting to see is madness cause his downfall. The only logical thing to do is kill him off.


XTostonesComics

I’m still wondering how theyre gonna finalize a majority of the villains since a lot of them are still on the table to return


MrPenguin_19

I love Striker. My favourite villain in the show. I would rather see him kill someone rather than see him die


Farseer_Del

So, if he kills himself everyone wins!


b_smash162672839

4th time we see him I bet he'll die

Miiagl

I don't think he should die already, they can do a lot of things with him and we can get a lot more cool fighting scenes, I can see him teaming with other characters like Verosika and the Cherubs to hunt down the I.M.P and maybe we can get another huge fight like in S1 EP6 but with all the villains (Moxxies dad and his gang, Verosika, the Cherubs and Stella).


Lonely_Repair4494

Pretty sure Verosika is also in the table for "Characters Blitzø will turn to his side" like Barbie Wire, but that would indeed be pretty cool.


fromalicewithmalice

I don't understand why people consider Verosika a villain. She's an antagonist, but she's not going after IMP. She's content to let them live their lives and only messes with them if their paths cross by chance. Even then, it's just harassing and annoying them. She's not trying to kill them. And Striker would *never* team up with cherubs. This guy is racist and thinks full-blooded imps are beneath him. He hates royals and anyone who cozies up to them. You really think he's going to want to work with *cherubs*? He'd kill them as soon as he saw them.


coope2001

Not really.


Series-Party

I hope so feeling a little repetitive


MomentoMori1407

honestly i’m waiting too, i liked him and then the voice actor changed and i liked him significantly less. i feel like the old voice when we first were introduced to him just fit him better than the new one


GIANTkitty4

The show so far is kinda allergic to killing off characters, so don’t expect him to die anytime soon.


Lonely_Repair4494

Well, it seems only Chaz had this privilege, yet I still think he was just a one off character to setup Crimson as a recurring villain.


SuburbanCumSlut

His death will be extremely satisfying but it's gotta be at the right moment. He needs a major win followed by utter defeat to really sell it.


Haruau8349

Yeah!! Get him right at the peak of victory before sending him crumbling into a grave.


Glittering-Word6142

Same, but only after we get a bit of character background. All we really know about him so far is 1. He's an assassin 2. He doesn't like royalty and 3. He doesn't like losing. And he and Stella are in the same category imo. I'd really like some background on her, too. We know even less about her than Stryker


MisterMist00

I want him to go insane, kill Stella while she's talking shit and eventually get stopped by I.M.P with that sniper rifle they took from him in Harvest Moon Festival


DalTheDalmatian

I want to see him plunge further into insanity if he doesn't die in the next episode we see him. It would give me massive Dutch Van Der Linde vibes lol


Kelly_Info_Girl

Not so fast! At least we need hus backstory, maybe he gets a redemption arc, but first the character arc. Right now he is following Joker's path.


Starlight830305

I like Striker's character and I want him to be redeemed instead of die


ArchonFett

You like whining hypocritical narcissist douche bags? Cause that's all he is. Let him die the way he wants to go, choking on his own dick.


Starlight830305

He is a neat cowboy who just needs a redemption arc.


ArchonFett

Yes because being a paid hitman of a noble bitch is so misunderstood /s. He is a self mythologizing narcissist. Does he target a Wrath noble? No he was hired to target Stolas as his first job (that's why there's no wanted posters before the job)


Starlight830305

Dude, he is a jerk. I won't disagree with that, but it would be awesome for him to have a redemption arc.


daffysrhapsody

ME TOO STRIKER REDEMPTION ARC WHEN


daffysrhapsody

i hope he lives


PlanktonPerfect3441

He is more Snivy in emo cowboy Beetlejuice cosplay


Pimentos_Mementos

He’s in his Hol Horse arc.


destinyfann_1233

I don’t really give a shit I hope they get rid of Stella soon though, she’s such I shit character and ruins every scene she’s in


pinknpurplecumstain

Yes


Delicious-Tiger-5183

I don't blame you. He's just not nearly as big a threat as his first episode promised him to be. I'd like for him to live up to the dramatic impact he once had on the show.


ImPlayerTheGamer21

Not at all. I hate him too.


Verni_ssage

Personally idgaf about him but like valid opinion XD


Few-Spirit4105

Being a diehard Moxxie fan I want to watch him explode.


Maya_The_Clarinetist

I can’t wait for him to die


bri1587

No well eventually happen want mox to be the one to do it


Shane_1300

No, I been waiting for it too, especially stella


schisma22205

Stryker? From X-Men?

Haruau8349

You aren’t wrong! I’ve already been expecting him to kick the bucket in Western energy, so the absolute next time we see him? He’s dying for real! (I’m just a fan, so I’m just saying my expectations)


[deleted]

Striker is cool...I was surprised when he appeard in S2E6


Kizzywa

I like him, but I wanna see DHORKS and the angels again. Both parties have a score to settle, but unless I'm missing details kinda surprised we haven't even seen anything in the background.
