Halo Reach is a first person shooter developed by Bungie and released for Xbox 360 in 2010 as a prequel to the Halo trilogy. Its multiplayer announcer, voiced by Jeff Steitzer, became famous for calling out game modes and medals with theatrical flair. Slayer is the series traditional deathmatch mode, where players win by reaching the kill limit first. The Slayer announcement became a staple sample in montages, streams and soundboards because Steitzer delivery made an ordinary mode selection feel like a major event.
