I was one of the comments asking about the invisibility combo. The way I do it is combining the kameo input with the invisibility input. So down R1 and up 4 together. Works all the time.
Shoutout to the Hive for reaching this goal! We all know Tim is a wonderful competitor but what really makes him standout is his heart and character. He attracts supporters far and wide and his community strive to make things happen! This guide is the result of a community that wants to be the best it can be! Kudos to the Hive!
Thanks for the guide! Not sure if you knew this, but you can cancel standing 3 into Falling Fangs even on miss. It's kind of gimmicky but can be useful to catch people, especially while invisible.
This is my first mortal kombat im taking serious and i loved reptile from the beginning thanks for this video really helps me out a lot. I learned a lot appreciate your work ❤
thanks for the tips!!! soo cool to see what other peoples strats are with him....after i was trying out reptile for a week now i figured out my own gameplan wit him and now he is my main in this game!!!!! his ex dash attack is my favorite move in the whole game
I wanted to learn how to play Reptile so I came to the man who is the best Reptile in the game. I wasn’t disappointed. Thank you for the great guide! 🙏
always appreciate a more in depth guide on my boy lizard man, been really digging scorps as a kameo altho i feel bad for letting sareena go, she carried me all the way up to grand master but it is what it is lol will definitely be putting the sauce to work in ranked!
In Grand Close to demi rnow, what I do is pick Sareena then if I lose 1st set or depending on how opponent plays, I switch to Scorp. Also pick sareena vs zoners
Man. Your dedication and such a long guide. I can only give my compliments. I am happy for any Reptile player. Unfortunately I didn't go deeper into Reptile. Maybe I come back later.
I learned a lot from watching the RU-vid gameplay and I learned everything with scorpion except the 400+ combo I even got compliments and had to let it be known I got it all from HoneyB cause I’m not nice like that fr 😂 this is also my first mk game I took serious and I improved dramatically cause of these
Great video, but I subscribed because of your having taken time to clearly explain button and control layout @2:35 - thanks for that, it's the little things like that that really help new players. I'm also looking for a tutorial on how to effectively use the practice area, specifically recordings and playbacks, effectively. If you have a reference or a video already, please share, and thanks again!
Your content is phenomenal! Could you do an updated video now that reptile has new moves? I’m having a hard time cancelling falling fangs. I’m also confused on the force ball, sometimes the outside of the force ball is blocked and the inside is still being projected.
This is awesome! Been maining reptile since the game came out and when I saw your scorpion kameo invisibility set up with the forceball at the end I tried labing it but couldnt pull it off. This helps a lot!
Thanks HB! Very insightful guide and super helpful. Please keep doing that. I don't mind you talk about other characters as well even if you don't main them.
I'm going to try some of these tips out when I get home from work today. Honeybee your presentation and execution is second to none. Honestly I don't bother watching other youtubers now, there's no point with the content your putting out.
Thanks a lot for the comprehensive and thorough guide, Honeybee. Btw i wondered what your opinion on a leverless fighting stick for MK is. I struggle a lot with fast and precise inputs on the dualsense and consistent instantairs or dashblocking
Since week 1 early access ive been using Reptiles EX far force ball to start kombos. Would you say that's the best option to start off with or regular EX force ball? Basically, have I been utilizing it right?
Guys hes right after death roll micro dash up sweep is an amazing check its so perfect try to practice that and get it on point hits for me 80% of the time because when they get up their hitbox is sticking out and your sweep looks like it will whiff
One small thing about sta ding 3. Since he jumps in the air and its a two hitting button, if you do the down back 4 air overhead it cancels before the 2nd hit.
Amazing video thanks its my main since i noticed i could actually do combo's with him , did the patches change anything major about using the assists you mentioned apart from the obvious down time on cyrax meter builds 😂😂
In mk 1 I tried reptile for the first time I reached demi god using reptile scorpion, watching you has helped my game I've been maining sub and Kitana since mk9 this is the first time I picked up reptile after mk2. I never seen to be able to land force ball after forward 3,2 into scorp cameo and invisibility. I see you hit a force ball after invi everytime, can u please tell me how to ?
Looking forward to playing him i wish he was faster like mkx reptile i forget the variation name but slowdown was so damn swaggy and fun to watch. I was trying to decide between him or smoke as my next character (started with niitara then rain) but i saw some of your sets and decided to give my old fav (tremor my new facorite ninja) the next slot And subs projectile armor comes in so clutch for people who do heavy zoning and especially against the sareena spam. (I was trying to get to elder god for barraka skin but just not good enough i BARELY made it to demi god and that took some time lol)
Thanks so much for the advanced guide. I am far from pro level and I found the mix up game with Stryker very interesting. One thing that I found in practice was the standing 3 (could have the input wrong it's the mid tail whip) can be cancelled into falling fang. I was thinking about squeezing Strykers low assist with this cancel but I noticed in general you did not have this cancel in the guide. Is this a newb/bad idea or did I stumble across a solid option to mix in and add value to the Stryker kameo?
Thanks HoneyBee, great video, using Reptile as my main and your tutorials are my go to, cheers. out of interest on that last meaty combo with 45% why can't you do the reptile drop at the end of the combo?
Hey honeybee really nice guide been practicing lots of reptile. I’m being really picky here but when you say forward sometimes sounds like 4, could be clearer if F instead?
Thanks, Honeybee, I was about to quit Reptile and go for a S tier characther, even having not much time to play, I want to be a pro player, but it´s hard noW I´m working and Living alone, I don´t know how to use any other characther and I really like to play Reptile
REPTILE MAINS REJOICE!!! he is the only character in the game with an mkx run dash with his dash attack move!!! i love using it to close the distance and for whiff punishing
Nice guide bro but i found myself doing *starter* - df1(r2)-4-df1-U322-far scorp-u322-db4. Its like 430 damage with 1 scorp and its hard to drop because your string if i wanna end it on first scorp have rly bad timing to hit db4 in the air. If you do my combo, in next hit you can do 430 again cuz you waste only 1 kameo
