General/Other - Reptile Reptile Beta Changes

[OFIDYAN]

It's very unfortunate. The loyalists will stay true though. You made me wanna play him and I haven't looked back since no matter what stupid things they will do to him in future patches

That's awesome man! Yeah you know I'm sticking with Reptile no matter what. I think Jax might be the best in the game now though. Going to have to play him a lot too when I learn all his converts.

Exactly my thinking haha. There's still so much for me to learn. We should play a couple sets one day you can show me some tips and stuff. You free to add on ps4 and xbox?

Iam with Reptile since I was young, until the end, no matter what))) Someone checked advantage on EX invis after main plus normals? And maybe EX basilisk after f412 now plus too, if it faster in beta? In current patch you can backdash every poke after f412EXbasilisk.

I have the EO beta the normal bas is a few frames faster and the EX I'm pretty sure is unchanged.

Is the lack of chip damage that bad though? I know it's annoying for end game scenarios where they have little health left, but in general you did severely reduced chip damage anyway, and I always found it more efficient to mash 50/50's in their face whilst basilisk was active.

 

[Alright RyRy]

So i played a match earlier and realized that reptile cant chip you while basilisk is activated. This is bad, very bad... :/

That sucks. This alone makes me want to play nothing but Noxious now.

Its pretty bad seeing as how chip damage is a huge part of reptiles game in nimble to me. Ill just have to work around it, its just an unecessary change. If they wanted to nerf something i rather them nerf ex invis duration amd leave nimble alone.

At least the activation is faster so more setups will work

Does anyone else think something should've been changed about "Toxic Fumes" I use it every once in awhile when I'm just messing around, but I typically find it to be a waste. You know Reptile loves and needs his meter for a lot, and Toxic Fumes doesn't do that much to benefit Reptile's stale pressure in Noxious. I wouldn't even mind if it didn't last half as long. I just wish something was done..

• Staying on Hit (shortly)
• Faster activation for pressure (even if it had a small gap, guess-able)
• Stackable like Reo suggested could be okay too

 

[themanDan]

Correct, its like before and you dont do chip. Its fucked

What on Earth? What warrants this change??

You just read my mind completely. This would make his fumes worth the bar. I find my self using ex swipe more just because I can get an extra 27% more often than not. Just seems more beneficial imo.

No chip in nimble mode? So the homie cant block nor do chip? Thats called a Nerf my friends.
He couldnt get those fixes tho?
I wish the best of luck to all the Loyal Rep mains... id rather avoid the frustration.

 

[esc1]

So puddle is still useless? Such a shame.. looks so cool.

 

[THTB]

Reptile is getting shafted lol.

Oh well.

 

[Wam-Zlay]

Character loyality > nerfs

i don´t care nerfs, it won´t be worse than day 1

 

[themanDan]

Man, just seems like another reason to only play deceptive.

 

[Israel]

Nothing has changed for him. Hes just the same character..thats the problem lol (for me anyway)

But as said, best to luck for you Loyal Mains. Im disappointed

 

[Gesture Required Ahead]

Noxious seems completely untouched.

Sniff

I'm pretty oblivious to Noxious stuff.

Did Reptile always do 15% and 18% respective for his throw with gas on?

Used to do 16% actually, his Poison Gas got stealth nerfed since Deceptive buffs. It scales in combo/throws now when it didn't used to

Meh, he already had greatly reduced chip when ballistic was active. Really makes no diffrence

 

[dribirut]

Ill still play him but im def Jumping ship to another main

 

[dribirut]

I cant verify but i could have sworn that when you throw out a fb, yiu can now mb ballistic without stopping the ball

 

[Israel]

Ill still play him but im def Jumping ship to another main

I feel's ya...
After the 1st, i will jump back on him to see if anything else changed, but for the most part..yall can catch me in them Robot forums. Sometimes you got to do what you got to do.......smh

Guys, reptile has always done less chip with basilisk up. F412 xx Klaw just goes from like 3% chip to 0.80 chip with basilisk up.

I really wanted to get into Reptile, like actually get indepth with his strings and frame traps, but without the nox buffs it's just not fun :/. Maybe when XL comes out I'll still commit to furthering my game
