1) "A lot of text" is not a disqualifier by itself.
2) the suggestion doesn't do a very good job of showing that he enjoys battle for the sake of battle; only that he doesn't care who he is fighting. In fact it doesn't even look like a fight, since the other guy isn't even armed. Maybe for Pyromaniac, but not for Blood Knight.

...if you don’t love you’re dead, and if you do, they’ll kill you for it.Voting to keep current. You can see the joy on his face in the first panel, and the second panel's dialogue makes it more clear what the expression is about (namely the fighting).
Look at all that shiny stuff ain't they prettyKeep current, use the suggestion as a replacement for Pyromaniac.
Eh, I can't.
And while I'm content to see the current example be used for the page image, I still think including the first panel is a bit much.
I have no issue with the current as is, and I can see him grinning.
Current for some of the above reasons.
Check out my fanfiction!Yeah, current's fine as is.

New theme music also a boxThat looks like enough consensus to stick with the current as is for Blood Knight. Anyone for/against using the OP on Pyromaniac?
I actually prefer Pyromaniac's current one over the OP.
Current for Pyromaniac as well. It shows that the character likes it with his expression, whereas the suggestion relies on text.
Look at all that shiny stuff ain't they prettyThe problem with the current on Pyromaniac is that gloating over an act of arson doth not a pyro necessarily make. The OP is clearly burn-happy, and while it may be more texty, it's better at getting the trope across.

Keep the current.
For me, if the suggestion here couldbe cropped to bring the focus on the happy little song he's singing, that would be ideal for Pyromaniac.
...if you don’t love you’re dead, and if you do, they’ll kill you for it.Keep the current on Pyromaniac.
Bigotry will NEVER be welcome on TV Tropes.It's been a week... anyone else want to weigh in on this?
Clock is set.
The clock's up and the consensus is to keep the pic on Pyromaniac, so we're done here. Locking up.
There is a lot of text in that example... it could probably make do with only the second panel, but just in case it couldn't, here's an alternative with more down-to-Earth wording.
