If someone put a gun to my head and said “pull off a b2 cancel combo in KL” I’d have my brains blown out. I can’t stand how input-precise they made Smoke.
It's not as hard as you think, alot of it is just timing muscle memory. What's really impressive are the consecutive cancels between multiple different mixes. Because the timing on b2 cancel is different from the f32 cancel.
Reptile became my unironic favorite in mk1 like mkx reptile was troll at best but they made him a beast in mk1 I don't even care about competitive either he's just goated in mk1 and probably won't ever be better than he is now
You know, while I do think Reptile could use some buffs, you would think he's starving for them with all these doomers. People really treated week 1 tier lists like gospel and held onto the belief that's he's bottom tier trash, lol. Kind of funny to think I used to be one of those people who thought his damage sucked
People are over reactive, reason why game devs dont usually listen to the community and wait a good while before they patch or nerf characters. Similar to when SF6 dropped, people were saying Zangief was top tier and insanely good and now he's generally considered the worst character in the game
@@GreenNutts "His move set is incomplete." Nah. "No safe mid launcher." Oh, no! If only he had a special move that launched his opponents and if only he had an incredibly easy to hit-confirm mid string that's safe on block! Oh, wait... "Too many gaps in his main combo strings." Let's see. His back 3 string and his...nope, that's literally it. "This will not age well at all at a high level." Literally all I said was he's not starving for buffs while also acknowledging that he _does_ need buffs
@@Kitsune986 he has 2 EX moves that do nothing B31 is literally the only good ranged string that has to be hit confirmed and has a launchable gap. EX Ball is punishable on block from any cancellable string. You tell me what’s good about the character lmao
Nah according to honey bee there is no such thing as a high level reptile because “WAHH REPTILE IS DA WORST CHARACTER EVEAAAA OHHH NOOO *cry cry cry complain complain complain* HEY COMMUNITY COME ON HELP ME GET BUFFS FOR MY MAIN CHARACTER PLZZZZZ WAHHHHH.” Or something like that…
@@KreKrexler he needs a buff that gives him a 50/50 mix, sure I guess. I agree that it’s goofy that his ex invisibility doesn’t do anything extra, but it either needs to be givin something alittle extra or take the ability to ex it in general, how much stronger do you need a move to be that literally gives you a 50/50?
@@shaieresmirnoffunsafe random low teleports, commuting fully to b23??, dropped combos, sareena lol, that was ass to watch for the most part. his corner pressure was coo sometimes but han rashid plays smoke way better
that first exchange was more skillfull than my entire career
Chris G was dominating Rep long time ago before even most of these people knew MK existed lol. Good to see him back in the game after over a decade.
Bro I love watching sets with reptile, this character, his gameplay is visually gorgeous 🔥

Literally easy. Back two down back four. Reptiles kara cancel into crocodiles roll is impossible.
Please tell me theres a point where they both went invisible 😮
It's possible but usually they're only able to do it when they're winning the nuetral. Therefore only one person is usually invis
SOOOO CLOSE @2:10
Very close to happening around 9:00 min as well
Perfect board and scene it look like these two would scrap at

The friendly truce crouching, by the way you are both awesome!
Great vid bro. Hey...can u both go invisible at the same time?
These were some awesome battles brother. Thx for sharing 👊💪
High level? I could win this in my sleep. Just kidding, great job!
Smoke's teleport definitely needs improvement. it's way too slow right now.
Cool... Both very fast.
High level gameplay, holding down+block 😂

Damage is not the problem. His move set is incomplete, no safe mid launcher, and too many gaps in his main combo starting strings
You may not see it in playing randoms in kombat league, but will not age well at all at a high level

You tell me what’s good about the character lmao
Wait how does Smoke cancel the ex smoke grenade to go invisible grounded?
Why was there no fatal blows?
R they not allowed in competitions
why the discount is on a EU version of MK1?

Reptile needs an invisibility buff tbh

I wish they just added them in mk11
For some reason why you dont put random music like what you did on others like dbfz, sf, etc.
Muy bue os tipo para derotarlo
Smoke too rush
buena pelea de ambos
2:52 - 3:05 fuckin what?
High level and see 3 missed punishes 😂
