General/Other - Reptile Reptile Bottom 5

[The PantyChrist]

LOL love when dumb people come in claiming others are dumb.

I may be dumb. But removing tools because you can't overcome an execution barrier(bf4/db4) is dumber. I had a similar issue with joker between teeth and crowbar and I would never have wanted them to remove far teeth.

So I say it takes one to know one

Read though this whole thread and wow this is a mess...


Anyways, I think Reptile is alright but boy does he have quite a few useless moves and I have no clue what to do with them...

• 121
• 141
• 123
• 34d4
• b1d4 (b1 maybe useful as an anti air?)
• 2124

I haven't found any reason to do any of these over f21, or f412.


Dunno what else to put down except my own wishlist of changes for Reptile.

• 29f start up on normal force balls(Faster start up)
  
• 8% damage from b2
  
• Armor to EX Reptilian Smash
• EX Reptilian Smash juggles opponent closer to Reptile allowing for a NJP follow up.
• 8f start up on d3
• 11% damage on EX Slide

(...)

• 121 - hkd for reversal wu
• 141 - decent chip, +block adv, but...
• 123 - skd, fullscreen, the only safe situation for forceball, if not vs teleporting variation
• 34d4 - useless
• b1d4 (b1 maybe useful as an anti air?) - outclassed by f412, b1 decent anti air
• 2124 - punish, outclassed by f21

Reptile stays bottom 5

 

[qspec]

A Reptile player unsatisfied with buffs literally 39 minutes after the patch notes are posted?!?

No...

 

[Xev]

More damage out of b2 is nice, and 7 frame d3. It's something.

 

[Method]

THE PROPHECY!!!

Stop.

You won already.

Just stop.

 

[haketh]

D3 buff is the biggest buff out of all of that

 

[Saviorself]

Stop.
Just stop.

You don't even play reptile.

d3 being 7f is great

Reptile - increased hit/cancel advantage on Sneaky Snake combo (Away + FP, Down + BK) by 20

gotta see what thats about
b2 being 5 damage is okay

they buffed all the useless strings

 

[Pterodactyl]

You don't even play reptile.

I do play Reptile.

I'm not going to say i'm the most Reptiley Reptile player in Reptile's Reptile club(and I avoid this forum like the plague due to threads like this), but I've learned him and I play him.

I get that a lot of you guys love to down play but put it on hold for a second, yo.

Not saying these buffs turned ol' Syzoth into the lizard messiah or anything, but you guys can be happy for a second before going back to complaining about tier placement.

 

[THTB]

I feel like the damage changes are placed randomly outside of the b2 and 14 damage changes.

d3 buff, though...yaaaassss.

Curious about the b1d4 change.

 

[JDM]

I'm gonna hold off until I can download this patch to put my input in.. but I'm not all that hype for them, We'll see.

 

[Saviorself]

yoooooo!

B1d4 can be combo'd into fast force ball now for 30%+ now

A small smile appears

 

[dribirut]

Lol at buffs

 

[dribirut]

Jajajajajajaj you call those buffs?? Jahahaha stay bottom 5 reptile. Smh fuck nrs . They give all that shit to kenshi yet you couldn't give anything besides a quick poke to reptile..

It's possible he even got nerfed since his standing 3 does less damage now and his nimble combos do less..

Fuck this game I'm out

 

[PPJ]

check out 34 forceball

 

[Error]

Reptile got a bunch of damage buffs, hitbox fixes, new combo/set-up opportunities and most importantly (IMO) a safe, fast low poke to get out of/initiate pressure. Reptile may not be bottom 5 anymore, but the Reptile forums sure are.

 

[dribirut]

And I know I'm going to get blown up for that rant but I don't care. Bring it. This is straight up bullshit.

Wasn't one of Reptile's problems that he had a hard time getting out of pressure?

Now he can. That's something.

 

[Shark Tank]

Don't worries guys, at least Goro's not bottom 5 anymore.

 

[JDM]

Reptile's buffs are laughable. I'm dropping the character completely for Raiden. Fucking ridiculous.

Thank you for buffing strings I will never, ever, ever use NRS. I really appreciate it. and ty for the icing on the cake, nerfing my corner damage in nimble (lmao).

D3 buff was the only meaningful buff which I appreciate but come on.

Quit your BS!

Best buffs were low poke
