Question guys, What other character in the game you belive have better footsies?
So footsie wise, i think reptile is only one of the few in the game, who actually can play it. But i think smoke is better at it.
-So if we look, he has f412, thats -6 (?) so its essentially safe, except against certain char's with 6f specials. No gaps (i dont belive)
-His 21 , is plus, however with the instant armor reaction buttons everyone does in this game, staggering it...is limited.
-his 2124 is -8 (?) , so that can be punished, but the last hit can hit some opponents who choose to let go of block to quick armor out. and get a quick juggle. no gaps ( i dont believe)
-141, has a gap, but 14 knocks down. 141 safe, good space between opponent.
-He has f3, which can be cancelled into noxious or invis, nice poke
-He has f1,2 , nice range..-5 on block (?). Can be hit confirmed. nice to catch ppl not holding block.
-b3,4 , his low go-to string ( i forgot the frames on it) but does knockdown, good range.
-he has b2, an instant overhead. plus 1 on block ,creates space between opponent. He gets about 20% or off of it meterless mid screen.
-He has dash, self explanitory
He has to always spend a bar, to get some type of extension. This why he balances out.
All these make him great to play footsies... u know what could make him be super solid in this role?
...if his zoning was just a taaaaaad bit better.
Whos better at it? i think smoke is.
