Video/Tutorial - Reptile Reptile Revealed via IGN for Mortal Kombat X

No one complained when they saw that Scorpion still had a lot of his MK9 moves, including his old 2d MK teleport that just moves him back.

Yet they whine about Reptile having an elbow dash, which he's had since UMK3, at least.

Humanity, everyone!

If he didn't have his classic moves, people would be like "why would they remove his iconic moves!? That's what makes Reptile, Reptile!"

And honestly, iconic characters should have their iconic specials and moves transfer to other fighters, it's a core part of what makes a character awesome and unique. I don't remember any complaints about Raiden, Scorpion, Kitana Sub-Zero, Kano etc having some of the same moves from previous games at least not on the large scale Reptile has these complaints for MKX so I dunno why it's suddenly unacceptable for Reptile.

I'm glad Reptile is in, but I honesty wasn't blow away by the trailer like I was by some other characters, but that's okay, every character can't do that for everyone. Most of the Reptile mains/fans seem happy so that's awesome.


I enjoyed the trailer despite that and like how weirdly he moves, the less human like he moves, the better in my opinion. His throw is my favorite of the ones I've seen thus far, tied with Raiden's throw in terms of awesomeness.

Sounds like there are a lot of #Felicias in this thread, am I right? :)

What a day. What a lovely day.
Hmm.... after watching the trailer a few more times I realize that I may have come across a bit more caustically than I intended. I love his look, and the game overall is still looking gorgeous. I also love the animation of Reptile's normals (and dat throw, shades of Venom anyone?). It's just the Force Ball look and animation that gets me lol. It was pretty much perfect in MK9 and I'm sad to see it go, even though I have no intention of playing the character.

Thank you.

Ninjas in this game are: Smoke, Sub and Scorpion(and arguably Noob for being a revenant of a ninja), people apparently want Reptile to be a green Sub/Scorpion, when his lore and concept has nothing to do with ninjas and clans.

The Lin Kuei aren't even ninja, they're an ancient chinese clan of assassins.

So I'm thinking Reptile is going to crush Lao's head in since the bone is weakened from the acid. Looking at his X-Ray and Fatality, he really likes to go for the face. Ouch.

This move looks like a new special move to me. It appears he puts in an input like d,f or d,b something before he launches. Perhaps its a new anti projectile move that leaves the player at a hard knockdown because you'll notice he puts down the acid carpet right after, but the opponent uses the delayed wakeup.

Edit. I also believe the EX Spit carpet move is just the regular acid spit but EX version. If you slow it down you see that the start up animation is the same, and when the flash that signifies a meter has been burned flashes, that's when the end of the animation turns into an altered move.

I like the trailer but I just don't know what to make of him yet, we don't know his variations so we don't really know what his potential is but i'm loving the new animations for certain returning moves. and boy was that xray brutal!

The ONLY thing I didn't like was the use of MK9 announcer stuff like "Finish Him", "Reptile Wins", and "Fatality" ... it truly felt out of place.

I realized in this community there always something to complain about.

"There no female characters."
""_______ is so boring, I want to see ______"

"______ has too many moves, I hope _____ isn't broken..."

"I wasn't too hype about the _______"

Who cares about _____ I want ______"

'_____ looks the same..."

"_____ doesn't look the same anymore.."



You guys....:rolleyes:
