I believe he is in losers bracket but still in. I missed about 90 minutes he may have been in that part.Is PL out of the tournament?
I understand that you would bring up PL is out because that is worth mentioning, but mentioning Tom Brady didn't make it is just how it was always going to be.PL is out, Tom Brady is out, and yes Reptile is in top 8
Reptile just made top 8 at EVO beating heavy hitters bruh. The char is pretty solid.He's still not higher than Mid tier, Milky just made constant read after read and it worked out for him
That being said, even Mid tier is viable is viable in this game and Reptile has the benefit of an overhead and a low(shitty ones at that) compared to other low tiers aaaaannnnnnnddddd most importantly Digit did not know the MU.
You all should be getting down on your knees in respect of his gameplan, it was pretty close to flawless.
Digit wasn't doing anything specifically wrong that would have made the matchup any better other than missing like...what, 1 or 2 punishes on b34, which is already a 2-frame punish for Raiden? Milky had nothing extra, either. Just good play...even punished the electric strings.In after people attempting to blow up reptile community.

He's good when you compare him with what's possible with the game's engine but he's just alright compared to other characters.Digit wasn't doing anything specifically wrong that would have made the matchup any better other than missing like...what, 1 or 2 punishes on b34, which is already a 2-frame punish for Raiden? Milky had nothing extra, either. Just good play...even punished the electric strings.
Also, those high/low options only bring out crap damage without meter midscreen (corner, too, for low option). But the overhead is also 11 frames and +1 on block, the low is 14 frames and with OS is only -5 (-7 with the full string), and when you tack on +2 jabs, a 7-frame poke, an 11-frame d4 to make the overhead option have an unfuzziable high/low, and ways to space out at 0 or better to set up whiff punishes on pokes, all into the mix, I stop seeing where he is this unviable character that needs some major buffs. Of course I liked the idea of fixing up his variations, but in reality, he'd be viable without them ever really changing.
He takes more plays to win matches due to his meterless damage. But he's also safe and difficult to actually block in reality. This character is good.
Damn I'm not in it?That's my boy right there. JLA our 4 man clan Lmao .
