Reptile Elbow Dash Whiff Combos

Question About the Reptile Elbow Dash Whiff Combo

I was just messing around with reptile's elbow dash combo and found out that doing: 3, 2, 1, elbow dash, njp, 3, 2, fast ball, 3, 2, ex slow ball, 3, 2, 1, slide works but the same combo with a normal slow ball does not so I was just wondering why it works that way. It's not like the slow ball is really bigger since i don't hold it at all and I believe it's slower as well. Maybe is the default hitbox for the ex slow force ball larger than the regular slow force ball?

Anyways I'm kinda new here so if this has already been covered sorry.

Also just some variations of his elbow whiff combo that I did. Most are not practical but I was just curious about how the damage changed when using certain ex moves.

*(bars of meter, hits, damage)*
3, 2, 1, elbow dash, njp, 3, 2, fast ball, slow ball, 3, 2, 1, slide (0, 12, 45)
3, 2, 1, elbow dash, njp, 3, 2, fast ball, slow ball, 3, 2, 1, ex slide (1, 14, 47)
3, 2, 1, elbow dash, njp, 3, 2, fast ball, 3, 2, ex slow ball, 3, 2, 1, slide (1, 14, 50)
3, 2, 1, elbow dash, njp, 3, 2, ex fast ball, 3, 2, ex slow ball, 3, 2, 1, slide (2, 14, 52)
3, 2, 1, elbow dash, njp, 3, 2, ex fast ball, 3, 2, ex slow ball, 3, 2, 1, ex slide (3, 16, 53)
3, 2, 1, elbow dash, njp, 3, 2, fast ball, slow ball, 3, 2, 1, x-ray (3, 15, 55)

Also maybe you can help me understand something else. When I'm in the right corner I can perform this combo: 3, 2, 1, fast ball, 3, 2, 1, slow ball, 3, 2, 1, slide but when I'm in the left corner I cannot. It might have to do with stance but I haven't tested it yet. This only seems to happen if you try to do fast force ball first.
