Wtf good does this do? I am trying to find some sort of serious and practical use for this move, but I cant seem to find anything useful. Anyone know of any situation where this move is viable?
 
If you condition your opponent to block, using it is going to force them to move. Make a read/react accordingly and you've got yourself some damage + put some fear into your opponent; you've given them a whole new situation to be aware of and ready for at all times or else. Seems fine to me, if you get blown up for throwing it out then you haven't conditioned them properly yet.

in corner b12 ex portal sometimes works
also it can be used after u establish a clone war (heheh) u can tech roll from a knock down and still combo

Useless for me. The only good thing is you can follow up with a 35-40% combo without meter. I guess you can use it with the Blackhole glitch if they decide to lame you out.

Ex portal is great for punishing a whiffed sub zero slide

This is something that would be really good to use in the right situation like Wemfs said in this quote. If you need the damage and you are in a situation like this where Sub whiffs a slide and you need to deal more than 8% damage, EX Portal would be your best friend.

Ex portal is just to buggy to use. Idk how mrs missed this one.

Ex portal is good in most projectile trades and a lot of whiffed specials. Gonna try to put together a list.

When I played you earlier today you were using regular portals a lot (more than other noobs I've played) and it put me in a rhythm of seeing you put it out, then reacting to where it came down. With regular portal the mixup was nice and a few of them caught me so I started waiting and watching for them. I'll bet that after I'm conditioned to react that way, an EN Hole would catch me off guard for sure. Also, I found that when you were putting a lot of portals out there, my best bet was to just rush you, an En Portal would probably make me think twice about doing that. Idk, I'm definitely not the expert, just thinking out loud on what effect they would have on me.
