Another thing to add on this match up.. when you do get a punish/bnb in, end with a EX SFB. I find a lot of mileenas telekick on wake up 85% of the time and they will get hit by our floating land mind leading into a combo.

I second this motion Haha.You need to write a book brother, I would read it
The thing is that there is no practice mode in online. It can be ok in offline mode but timings change on the online and I can't get the trick. So i wanted to know if there were some stuffs to permit me to succed, like the reptile position before doing neutral jump, if it's better to hold up right after 3, 2, 1 and before pressing 2 etc...
Keep yer distant and instant air fan, most reptile players get frustrated when the can't get in. For the few who like to zone however stay grounded and throw normal fans, acid spit is reptile best options here and that really limits him.
I wouldn't recommend doing that combo online because of lag its just that much more inconsistent.
that button sequence is f3 1+2.
1)For meterless midscreen combos I do 122 ffb njp 32 sfb 321 finisher of choice.
If you get out of a cross up try an sfb if they try to jump in most of the time it will hit then you can njp 32 ffb 321 finisher of choice. But almost all of his normals are good for using as an AA you can combo after but with some i find it difficult, I use f2 ex ffb 32 sfb 321 finisher of choice when i see it fit, but for most matches when I have space I'm zoning, its a very strong part of reptile's game.Thx Manreally thx
i have question, what is reptile best antiair? I cant deal with jumpins/crossups. Im just dashing away from crossups but no idea what to do against jumpins. I Found his D1 is great range and can work as antiair, but is there any real follow up after d1?
for teleporters, in all honesty as obvious as this is going to sound its best to bait the teleport. Start zoning the character and try to get them to time a Tele out, the recovery on reptiles zoning moves are all pretty good so you should have time to block it and punish with full combo, you can also elbow dash then use Jip when use see them on the other side of the screen during the Tele and it will hit a lot of the time.
Thanks for the backup snips4. I only use slide if it will kill the enemy. The reason you don't want to use slide all the time is because you can shoot out a forceball at the end of the string to create pressure for when they get up and it makes you safe from their wakeup attack.
11. His xray is awesome anti-air. It really is a situational thing. If they try to jump in punch and your xray will kill them, then use it. However generally breakers are more important than xray, you just have to learn through experience when the xray is important. If you are going to lose the round, don't breaker unless you really think you can make a comeback. It's better to save meter for the next round to have a better start.
12. With his new buff to slide you will want to use that if you are getting zoned. Howver for the most part his most useful ex moves are his forceballs and elbow dash to get out of corners. You can charge forceballs if you anticipate a jump from the opponent and htye will jump right into it.
The rest of the answers Reptile_8417 has answered just about perfectly and I just wanted to throw in some additional input
After the air to air with the jump punch, you can f2 ex ffb 32 sfb 321, but it's also height specific. As for question 2, CitizenSnips has already taken care of that, other than that you can do a slide after an AA standing 1 for something more consistent. That's pretty much it though.
First thing about this matchup, block high as much as possible!! Smoke is going to try to bait low block with pokes, then try to get you with the overhead b2 3 into smokeball. Now most smoke players will still do the smokeball even if the b2 3 is blocked, this is where you punish 122 combo is probably the best. If they don't smokeball after b2 3, you can pretty much choose your punish. There are probably plenty of other places to get in, but I find that this is the best place to start the offensive.edit: I have not played any decent smoke players offline so this could only be an online thing, but i don't think it is.
