i disagree i believe his zoning is def top 7 maybe top 5 in the game and zoning for reptile is key in some matchupslol reptile zoning is so braindead, serious talk. Like the only reason you should zone is to build meter and start your offense.
Slow fb is the key, get that shit out ASAP. Then follow up by a fast fb, dash to get in pressure, or spit to your opponent tries to jump over the fb. Ex slow fb also helps your zoning by throwing out a fast fb/spit/dash in pressure. Other than that, reptile "pure zoning" isnt that good. He uses zoning to start his close range offense.
Dude reptile doesnt "zone", he can not zone to win any MU... Period. He zones to build meter or start his pressure. Getting a fb on the screen and then dash in isnt zoning.i disagree i believe his zoning is def top 7 maybe top 5 in the game and zoning for reptile is key in some matchups
lol thats your belief but i have my own strategy man.. its about opinionDude reptile doesnt "zone", he can not zone to win any MU... Period. He zones to build meter or start his pressure. Getting a fb on the screen and then dash in isnt zoning.
if you get a slow fb out you can outzone most of the castYah what mu is won because of reptiles zoning? I agree with salad here.
I just read this post, didn't mean to echo you.if you get a slow fb out you can outzone most of the cast
lol its not all about getting a fb on screen and then dashing brothaDude reptile doesnt "zone", he can not zone to win any MU... Period. He zones to build meter or start his pressure. Getting a fb on the screen and then dash in isnt zoning.
Very useful in the cyrax matchup, as well as the johnny matchup.in mu likes cyrax its very useful
Theres a different between zoning/anti zoning and good zoning character. Reptile is not a good zoning character because 2-3 dashes and reptile zoning is done, reptile doesnt have any push back in his zoning at all. In a cyrax mu, 1 dash is enough to stop reptile zoning because then he can starting to trade with nets. Thats why you only zone to build meter/start pressure. Theres 0 mu where reptile zone 100% of the time. Even with JC mu, you use your zoning to build meter or gain pressure advantage, doing pure zoning isnt gonna stop JC to go in on you. Reptile zoning isnt strong enough.if you get a slow fb out you can outzone most of the cast
You're doing what I see every single Reptile player do so I think you're doing it right. Maybe some of these guys can give ya some help THTB Joker8417 TylerLantern RapZiLLa54 ShowtimeSo I guess this question is more about pressure, but when you get a sfb on the screen and dash up in their face, what are your options?
I usually just start wailing on them with pieces of 321 with a AH/slide mixup at the end. Sometimes I b4 (pushes them back away from the sfb, maintaining pressure). Anything else I'm missing?
