You wont be seeing him on PSN for quite some time.............Tryin to
I REALLY need to learn the Smoke matchup, so hit me up sometime. I'm on PSN too, if you wanna go that route
Ima start callin you Kryptic Keyon if you keep that kind of stuff up....
Shang I'm not sure on, as I've only played against Keyon's online, and only 1 or 2 matches.

Sub, on the other hand, I have quite a bit of in-person experience against. There's a pretty good Sub player here, and one night we really hit that matchup hard. Basically, once you can get in Sub's face, you can apply pressure and stay in his face with your different strings and enders. Just make sure you are keeping as close to him as possible, making sure he can't clone. The hard part is obviously getting in. From full-screen range, you can duck under all ice, including ex version. The moment after ducking one, throw a fast forceball, if Sub throws another ball at the same time, it will trade, but slightly in Reptiles favor. The Sub player will either keep doing this, and losing more life that Rep, or he will try and move in, where it is much more in your favor. The real advantage is when you have X Ray, b/c it can punish a clone or ice ball full screen. It goes straight through clones, shattering them.
I agree with the Reptile board saying this matchup is 4.5/5.5 Sub, and that it's anyone's game. Keyon can tell you that from our Sub/Rep games online
As far as the Smoke matchup, I need to play against a decent Smoke to really break that down. When I visit in a few weeks, we can get some time in on that matchup, Pat. Of course if we had some frame data, or even a dummy record feature, this would be a little easier....
Most definitely. And I feel your pain on that frame data/training mode. For a game that plays so much like a 3d game frame data is a must. I really hope that they do add that dummy record feature in the new patch.Shang I'm not sure on, as I've only played against Keyon's online, and only 1 or 2 matches.

Cool, see you next week!
That video scares the crap out of me.....
yeah, that glitch is pretty serious but I pretty sure it is also getting patched in the upcoming update. Until then it BETTER be banned at all tournaments or I might have to start questioning the wisdom of the tourny organizer.
OMG Repile nerfs...F M LLLLLL
Man, these nerfs are getting a little out of hand. Realistically the game hasn't been out long enough to justify some of these and others seem based on the fact that people don't actually want to take the time to learn how to deal with certain things. To be honest if they were to merely release a training mode patch I think most people would realize half the things they are complaining about have a simple counter.
COSIGNED
I may not be able to tune in. If not, PLEASE remember anything he says regarding Reptile. Thanks in advance.
