Just don't zone Sektor, you'll eat full combos, bait and punish teleports and up missiles, keep the rushdown on him. with freddy if you can get your projectile out first you can zone, but he can still counter that with hell spike at any time so look out for it, this is another matchup where you just want to stay in his face, but in this case it puts the matchup more in your favor, freddy doesnt have much to escape pressure. You can be flexible against Sonya, you can zone her but she can punish with that arc kick so bait with a charged ex fb and if you bait it and the fb lands you can juggle. Her projectile isn't exactly slow either so be wary of that when you have space as well. When it comes to Kabal try not to let him get too much space, you can zone but can be tough so not recommended. Try to stay within elbow dash distance to make him respect it. When pressuring be sure to watch out for nomad dashes/EX nomad dashes as well as buzzsaws. Alright the sub zero matchup is a game of patience, so try to just wait for your moments to strike. Anytime you see he is about to ice clone after a string if you do an acid spit quick enough it will hit him and break the clone, you can either throw out fb's at this point or move in and pressure, but be careful if you choose to pressure because he will be able to get out another clone when you get there. You can also ex slide out of pressure to get space and zone. Try not to trade it will end badly.How to play against them overall.. When to zone, when not to zone or not at all, rushdown, etc. I hope it's not too much to ask but these are characters I don't have much match up experience with. Also, the Sub v Rep matchup
hey man. best of luck then. though i have to tell u something. Non of what u mentioned in my opinion are bad matchups to reptile at all! except for Kabal, which can be slightly Kabal favor. So far , the only kabal that SERIOUSLY caused me major trouble was Erik warda...i bet Reo as well, though i never fought his kabal.I have a tournament this Thursday at Battle and Brew and I was wondering if you guys could just help me do a quick overview of Rep's bad match ups.
Specifically Freddy, Kabal, Sektor, and Sonya
Lol they are both really solid though man don't stress.Tournament went terrible, lost to LOTF's NW, sent to losers, lost to Batman's KungLao.
no bueno :/
Yea, I mean it felt kinda good to take LOTF to match point. I just should've studied a little more match up wise, stopped jumping so much... etc. Did you watch the matches?Lol they are both really solid though man don't stress.

Nah man, I couldn't get the stream to stay golden on my computer for some reason. I'm trying to get some time where I can meet up with you guys during one of your level up sessions. I really want to play with all you Atlanta players.Yea, I mean it felt kinda good to take LOTF to match point.

That would be sick, but I know it'd be a hell of a drive most likely. Traffic is always horrendous on the way there T__TNah man, I couldn't get the stream to stay golden on my computer for some reason.

Yeah it takes about 5 and a half hours to get there from Charleston.That would be sick, but I know it'd be a hell of a drive most likely. Traffic is always horrendous on the way there T__T
Damn dude.. I don't think a level up meeting would be worth that then lol. Maybe a tournament or something, maybe a major.Yeah it takes about 5 and a half hours to get there from Charleston.
Oh my hometown however is just a little ways from marrieta lol. So if I do I would also visit my family.Damn dude.. I don't think a level up meeting would be worth that then lol. Maybe a tournament or something, maybe a major.

It isn't in the game anymore.So is the invisible forceball glitch still in the game? See this video at 1:42:20
I've tried recreating the scenario but the glitch has never happened for me :huh:
Can you explain why that happened in the video? Because that's patch 1.05It isn't in the game anymore.

Not true, it is still in the game. Sometimes the forceball would not come out but still hit at one point, sometimes the fb doesnt come out at all but reptile still does his animation of fb.It isn't in the game anymore.

Lol, wasn't that what NRS intended to Reptile in the patch in the first place? I wasn't aware it was still in, thanks for the catch. It wasn't just random, it's something specific you do to cause it to happen and it acts like an invisible mine. Can't remember what you had to do, but Wonder Chef uses it as a tactic.Not true, it is still in the game. Sometimes the forceball would not come out but still hit at one point, sometimes the fb doesnt come out at all but reptile still does his animation of fb.
Like I said not so sure lol.What do you have to do to do it?
