Hey SonicHaXD you will be pleased in the final chapter since they let you pick whoever you want which includes Reptile/Syzoth and it gives an excuse for him to have more screen time (same applies for anyone else that’s playable too)
Reptile's really done well for himself this game. A story chapter, camaraderie and respect from the heroes, a budding romance with Ashrah, a honoured position in Mileena's court. Though he may have his kind's prejudices to overcome, gotta appreciate what a glow-up the old secret fighter's got.
IKR! Everytime there was a moment of care or friendship between the good guy group, (especially when it involved both Reptile and Baraka) it made me so happy that my characters were getting the treatment they deserved and needed! Spoilers! (I think) When Kenshi noticed Syzoth in trouble and went to go help him and when Kung Lao and Baraka (two individuals who were known to hate each other in the past timeline) worked together in a badass tag team warmed my heart!
@@vikinghammer87Reptile is reptilling all over Ashrah, though... although I'm not sure how the heII doing the nasty works between a demon and a reptile...
Small tip on the use of standing 3 that I found is that you can cancel the first hit into a falling fangs. Considering the fact that standing 3 is a high attack you can actually do a surprise overhead.
@@prodULTRA64 I have a question if you could take the time to reply to me I always see this community using numbers in the combo strings but I have no idea what they mean what is a standing three for example
Ah, those memories. Long before cell phones & social media. Imagine what it must have been like seeing this mysterious character named Reptile randomly appear out of nowhere & then deciphering how to access him. What it must have been like to be out on a Friday night in 1992 at your local arcade, bowling alley, amusement park or whatever, surrounded by friends & getting to fight Reptile at the bottom of the Pit in MK1 after deciphering these mysterious clues. Truly a Generation X experience! So around here got to fulfill that? Share your stories. Perfection is the key👍
I remember finding Reptile on the SNES version. It was super hype to fight him. It was a total pain in the ass to even find him so losing was not an option.
2:10 The Meter Burned Force Ball gets you an additional knock up alongside the 2 you get normally, allowing you to get 3 in a combo or possibly more. I discovered it when the CPU did it on me while practicing. 😅 Anywho, just wanted to share. Hope everyone has a good day.
So meter burning the Force Ball does go slightly farther for the fast version BUT meter burning the slow version makes it go MUCH further so you can approach behind it and use it for cover I.E. Slow Booms from Guile in SF.
You can do Falling Fang off of the first hit of his standing 3. Since both of his feet are off the ground during the animation, he's technically "in the air". 👍
Few things missing 1. The air attack can be stringed into forward 3 2 and ended with slide 2. Standing 2 1 is a good stager with good recovery and you can move back slightly to avoid pokes and punish them with back 3 2 into full combo 3. The dash has instant recovery if you don’t hit your target so it’s good to end combos with to close distance if your opponent likes to overly zone 4. Charged overhead is almost safe in block and can be plus with a kameo (I prefer cyrax) 5. You should almost always end combos with foward 3 2 which can chain into slide invisibility or kameo
I don't even own the newer MK games but I like to watch gameplays of my favorite characters and your guides are always were I check first. Keep doing a nice job.
I been learning to do the 2,3 and 2.3 again followed by 2,1,1 for 303 damage. I didn't even know how to do the combo air attacks and I don't get when to say use Serena or even Cyrax spin in the air to continue a combo. Every time I do Cyrax spin in the air he completely misses the opponent and just flies away. Grrr. I seriously believe Reptile is hands down my favorite character. He is so much fun and his attacks to and from lizard form just make him that much cooler! Thank you for the tips. I love the green ball and didn't know about the slow and fast attacks with it. Super cools. You have given me a lot to practice with.
This vid is great, quick guide but what introduced me to your channel was the character breakdowns you did in practice mode for all of the MK11 characters. Hope to see more of those!
Reptile is my main character to use, along with Sonya as a Kameo, she's great for his air combos, which you can end with the death roll move. Thank you for the video and the bread and butter combos. Appreciate it
I just wanna say your videos got me into mortal kombat again, and I havent played since 2011! Thank you! Im having fun labbing smoke, so I'll be looking forward to that guide as well!
It was so nice to see both my 1st 2 favorite kombatants in the entire series back in the same game (cause in the past 2 games they were split into different games). 👹🐊
Reptile’s so great to have back in this game. I have a friend who can’t cope when I play him. I’ve learnt him well and his zoning and juggling with Force Ball can be a nightmare to deal with. He’s surprisingly easy to pick up too. I love comboing into Death Roll or Falling Fangs.
The combo at 1:23 is a bit odd, i do not get 34% out of it despite doing it exactly as in the video. All the same strings, with two different force balls, 11 hits total and i get 271 damage.
Time to be a bit self indulgent. There are three characters I want to main and reptile is one of them so I will ask you mister underdog sir do please do either raiden or baraka.
You can get 3 force balls in one combo. One of them has to be meter burned. In neutral, or in the corner, i would do normal ball, slow ball, meter burned ball and end it with air combo into the lizard drop. It is a tight window but it is possible. I should mention that I'm not doing strings in between forceballs. So I open them up, and go into 3 consecutive forceballs to make it work. I doubt it works with strings in between them.
With damage scaling being ridiculous who cares about 50% damage on a pairing combo string? I hope they change that soon, that sucks not to reward players for stacking combos and hitting them successfully. Awesome content btw! I'm so happy Reptile is back!
@@Ese_Moreno04Him and ermac getting a place as good guys is a better take, Sadly we didn't get to play ermac. but hopefully as they add him, they'll let you be able to pick him in chapter 15 aswell
Force Ball meter allows slow to go further allowing for it to projectile block or setup. Acid spit meter burn makes it hit mid, so it no longer can be ducked.
This combo is getting even better, if instead of 3 force ball you finish it with > 3 2. Its very easy to time and on hit, it can be canceled into specials, invisibility or even fatal blow
Shang tsung please I’m starting this game as a reptile main I wanna main Shang tsung but I wannna wait till I learn 3 other characters first so i can do some dope triple morph combos, I miss the soul steal of mk11 tho but this fire af
Go with Smoke on the next one. Spent about 40 min with him in practice mode and he has LOTS of potencial. That aerial move that has a sweep and sends the opponent flying for a air combo if you spend bar is bonkers.
I found that you can follow up a jumping forward 4 with a immediate down 2 you can just clip somones legs but still launch them just as far as what the initial kick would so its a free upper cut hit, this can then immediatly be followed by a fast force ball which launches the person up and lead into the air combo of 2 3 3 and then finish with the teleport drop. edit, should have noted that the initial JF4 needs to be pressed late so you are close to the ground and land fast enough to perform the follow up D2. if you do the initial JF4 whiles still quite high you can follow it immediatly with a DB4 teleport which is helpful if you stuff up the timing of the kick as doing it too high leaves more time to land thus the person will be launched too far to be hit by the D2
You can extend combos with Reptile's spit in a way. It is to use a Kameo that has teleport trait, and if you time using the teleport so well right after the spit lands you will go to the other side and keep your hits going. I saw this in a TH-cam vid one day.
Im maining reptile and hes awseome. The gator roll covers alot of ground and force ball and acid can be used interchangebly to throw your opponent off.
Reptile's down 2 is completely safe on block and has really good range, so it can be nice to throw it out there instead of something like forward 2 trying to go for an unsafe mixup

Does that also work for Death Roll? If so that would be a good 50/50.

Anywho, just wanted to share. Hope everyone has a good day.
If you kameo kung lao with him, you can get at least 4 knockup juggles with two force balls, kung lao's spin, and uppercut.
there’s benefits to meter burning the force ball. you can actually stack the meter burn balls after the first two to keep the combo going.
It also allows the slow ball to go full screen until hit. Great for tricking people trying to jump it.
Yes, I noticed that but it’s hard to juggle after because the opponent starts falling really fast 😂
I know this is old but you can also meter burn the slow version to give you a safe approach option.
The slow metered ball can be worthwhile since you can walk behind it and it actually travels a respectable distance. Really good in specific matchups.
Cover Barraka next. He got a lot of love in this game, and his move set is also really freaking amazing. Probabky the best version of him.
Man I love reptile he is so cool. He’s always been my favorite ninja. This is his best iteration
So meter burning the Force Ball does go slightly farther for the fast version BUT meter burning the slow version makes it go MUCH further so you can approach behind it and use it for cover I.E. Slow Booms from Guile in SF.
It also gives a third launch after you use two different speeds

Shout out to you because I think this is insane
I’ve been having so much fun with Baraka getting some super easy 35-40% combos.
Smoke is a fun one to learn.
smoke has awesome brutalities

1. The air attack can be stringed into forward 3 2 and ended with slide
2. Standing 2 1 is a good stager with good recovery and you can move back slightly to avoid pokes and punish them with back 3 2 into full combo

Geras!!!!!!! He seems like a solid change
Oh man I can't wait to finally play as Reptile again! His design is amazing, his story is amazing and his gameplay is insane!
im glad reptile has his death roll as the slide is sorely missed and this achieves the same thing while being more unique when compared to subzero
I just wanna say your videos got me into mortal kombat again, and I havent played since 2011! Thank you! Im having fun labbing smoke, so I'll be looking forward to that guide as well!

He’s surprisingly easy to pick up too. I love comboing into Death Roll or Falling Fangs.
2:05
It’s actually good to spend a meter on the forceball because it makes it last longer so you can hit the enemy from the other side of the arena
Also you forgot about Acid ball spit!
Holding down on the button for acid spit will make him shoot a ball of acid to the other side of the arena
Loving playing as reptile and definitely love playing as Nitara
Meter burn force ball allows you to use all 3 in a combo
I saw waz do three forceballs in the same combo. You have to amp the 3rd one and it should combo
The combo at 1:23 is a bit odd, i do not get 34% out of it despite doing it exactly as in the video. All the same strings, with two different force balls, 11 hits total and i get 271 damage.
Same, nerf?
Time to be a bit self indulgent. There are three characters I want to main and reptile is one of them so I will ask you mister underdog sir do please do either raiden or baraka.
the Reptile combo in 1:22 was nerfed already, instead of 35% damage it does 28% now lol
Ikrrr.. I was literally searching for this comment... But there are other ways you can hit 40%
forward 32 into the roll special is one rlly good way to end combos too
Thanks Underdawg 🙏🏾
Missed the guides
The force balls are like Zod in injustice
You can get 3 force balls in one combo. One of them has to be meter burned. In neutral, or in the corner, i would do normal ball, slow ball, meter burned ball and end it with air combo into the lizard drop. It is a tight window but it is possible.

You can actually do 5 force balls in one combo lol. Can do 2 different unmetered and 3 metered in one combo .
This version of reptile the coolest version they ever done in my op..
SMOKE!!
Good choice on the OG OP fighter first
reptile looks great! i need a nitara video real bad
Cool guide let's hope this doesn't become outdated within the next few years like how your frost guide for MK 11 was
Week 1 tutorials like this will certainly need to be revisited once the game is more "figured out"
It got outdated in 1 day. This damage was nerfed yesterday lmfao
Current games get updated constantly, how the heII can you expect these type of videos to not become outdated?
Baraka! Baraka! My boy Baraka needs some love
With damage scaling being ridiculous who cares about 50% damage on a pairing combo string? I hope they change that soon, that sucks not to reward players for stacking combos and hitting them successfully. Awesome content btw! I'm so happy Reptile is back!
I'm definitely maining Reptile. I learned a few moves with him in the middle of story mode, so he's easy enough for me to learn.
I felt the same way. It was pretty intuitive to kick ass as him which must mean I need to give him a go!
@TaTangoFaFett4 Not to mention, I love the way they wrote Syzoth in this game. He's adorable.

Acid spit meter burn makes it hit mid, so it no longer can be ducked.
finally someone dropped a reptile vid. i’ll go ahead and like and subscribe now 😂
Plz do havik next dude looks crazy
I think next vid you should try Nitara she has really good air combos, I’ve been practicing trying to find the right Kameo to use with her
Smoke should be next. He is god base but when he has full meter he is a god. No one will come out of the air.
The force ball meter burned is infinite loopable so yeah, is useful somehow.
Loving Reptile so far. Him and Havik are freaking NUTS in combos.
I’m really quickly a sub zero main, his zoning and combo abilities are insane.
I can't wait to play my boy. I'm 100% maining him. I missed him in MK11 needed him back! Plus, I even get my other MKX main in Ermac too!
1:47 You can cast force ball 3 times into a combo if do the following sequence: regular, slow, and then ex
wouldnt it work with regular fast and then ex?
Reminds me of Bloody Roar!
This combo is getting even better, if instead of 3 force ball you finish it with > 3 2. Its very easy to time and on hit, it can be canceled into specials, invisibility or even fatal blow
Make a raiden guide next plz

Shang tsung next since he is a little complex 😶
Dope!
My vote for next Guide is Smoke OR Kenshi
His 3,2 ender on pop ups leads to a good deathroll combo that can lead to 2 different brutalities
Noob saibot will always be my main. But wow reptile actually looks fun this time.
I freaking love his design
you already know we want that smoke video next
Reptile finally being the deadly force he should've been this whole entire time
You can do the teleport from x on ps or a on Xbox
Go with Smoke on the next one. Spent about 40 min with him in practice mode and he has LOTS of potencial. That aerial move that has a sweep and sends the opponent flying for a air combo if you spend bar is bonkers.
They should’ve put reptiles fighting stance as the Philly shell… it close though.
You can use 3 force balls in one combo if you metter burn the 3rd one
Standing 3 can go right into falling fangs because reptile counts as in air. So you can whiff the stand 3 to teleport from the ground basically
Good for fishing
I'd really like to see Baraka because he looks like so much fun.
Agreed.
Need this for Shang immediately!!
havik next
please for the love of god do some havik gameplay,he's a awesome character :)
I found that you can follow up a jumping forward 4 with a immediate down 2 you can just clip somones legs but still launch them just as far as what the initial kick would so its a free upper cut hit, this can then immediatly be followed by a fast force ball which launches the person up and lead into the air combo of 2 3 3 and then finish with the teleport drop.

enchanced forceball has no push back, therefore no limit cap. You can spam and until you out of meter. Only for style points
I’m think on playing smoke, raiden, and or havik. Those three have intrigued me
You can extend combos with Reptile's spit in a way.
It is to use a Kameo that has teleport trait, and if you time using the teleport so well right after the spit lands you will go to the other side and keep your hits going.

Meter burn fast force ball actually does go full screen. And meter burn slow goes decently far and you can walk behind it.
Smokee next
Pretty sure if you amplify slow force ball you can walk with it
Back B toe poke is insane also if you hold acid spit it shoots a projectile
You can meter burn the slow force ball and then throw out an unsafe move like the dash or roll to close in on the opponent.
Can you do Scorpion next
Reptile's down 2 is completely safe on block and has really good range, so it can be nice to throw it out there instead of something like forward 2 trying to go for an unsafe mixup
