Well with his EXCELLENT reveal, I know for a fact regardless of tiers or competitive talk. He will be my absolute main character in MKX, Any inhouse Reptile players or Fans that can give me some insight of how he plays, Mind you I played MK9 but it was at release and not since. Anyone willing to toss me a refresher course or break down some key gameplay points from the teaser? grin Who else is going to Main The Green Dream?!

Hard to say yet. Need to see the breakdown (normals, starters, etc.). Looks fun, nonetheless!

I figured it may be too early with just a teaser but it's a good brain storming exercise that we can all gain from but you know I will gain the most!


Also does anyone know if PS4 Fight sticks exist yet? Please don't tell me I have to import from Play Asia or something...

PS3 fight sticks should work on PS4.

Almost certain PS3 fight sticks will NOT work on PS4. From what I've read, if the developer adds driver support for the PS3 stick then yes, it could work on PS4. I would bet NRS will have a MKX stick in one of their special kollections though, if you have the $$ to spend.

Hoping for another Tournament Edition w/stick, although I prefer a pad I still like to play occasionally on a fight stick....plus the collectability

This close to release and no news of a KE i'm a tad bit skeptical we will be getting one at all. Did the Fightstick version of MK9 sell well?

Tier wise Reptile is one of the most underrated characters in mk9 while peices of crap like Smoke and Kenshi are way overrated.

Reptile is my #1 main in most mk games and yeah he will be in mkx for me too. He will be first char i learn which should be quick actually since, at least in whatever variation it was, Reptile appears to play very very similar to mk9 which is good news for me.... Bad for you tongue

But yeah now i officially dont care too much who is in and not. I got reppy, can continue my reppy legacy as best reptile in the world.... Dont believe me then hit me up some time, even though im rusty.....

I've been maining Reptile since MKII... not strictly over the years but over the course of certain games like MK2, UMK3, MK4, MK9. Have been anticipating for him heavily in MKX, really happy for his inclusion. I love his look and speed.

MK9 got me to get back into using fightsticks after not having used them in years since the arcades. Took some time to get back but I'm pretty good now, definitely recommend it. Much easier to perform combos than without.

I mained Reptile all of MK9 and he was the only character I really liked gameplay wise (for me). His speed, combos, and specials were the best in the game, in my opinion.

I'm excited to see a resemblance to his MK9 gameplay, and I definitely see Reptile being in my top 5 in this game.

Shinnok will be my main. I generally stick by my 1 character I know or hope to be part of the games era ed chooses to go with. If this was MKDA id main Bo Rai Cho. MKD id main Darrius. MKA Taven etc. But for MKX it's my boy Shinnok. As for reptile. Lets just say I was a reptile fan way before I ever liked Scorpion. I used to watch the mk movie fight scene vs liu repeatedly. Coolest mask breathing and great fighter. Definitely a classic favorite of mine. But not a main.

Reptile is the one character that always makes me say, "Reptile is in?? Cool, now I don't care who else is in the game."

Been that way since MKII and why I hated MK 3 until UMK3 came out and Reptile was added tongue


Even when he looked bad in MK4 and god awful in MKDA, he was still my main

That trailer honestly didn't show enough for me to get excited about him. Of course they are more than likely saving the variations and such for the stream so I'll hold off on judgement.

I've never done mains. I like playing as everyone. If I ever want to get serious about playing people online though, perhaps I should...

I used Reptile like twice in MK9...both times due to random select. Not a fan of his fighting style, and his game play looks even worse in this one.

Love the character though, especially in the movies.

Rep has alot of moves good enough to pick against intermediate gamers online. As a main choice, I dont know, he not bad if your really good with connecting his combos with a little bit of invisibility. Personally, I would like my opponents online to visibly see their ass whoopings come straight at them nice and clear.

The cool thing about MK9, was that every time somebody would fight me with Reptile, I could block his or her special attack easily, because of the loud sounds he makes doing it before the acid or bubble actually shoots at you.

Honestly I was dissapointed by his reveal trailer. I'm not gonna jump to conclusions though. Reptile is always gonna play more awkward than someone like scorpion and it isn't always easy to demonstrate his play style in a quick video. That and I assume his variations are going to add a lot more.

Maybe it's similar for other characters but I played Scorp and Sub in MK9 and there are SOOO many changes to these guys. With Reptile it only looks like new animations, save for that dope kick that he has (I did really like that).

But ya he's probably going to be one of my mains (I like to have 3... Mahvel rules). Also not crazy about his costume but I've never been crazy for any costume that wasn't fan art (and his classic ninja garb). So really when I think about it... It's actually one of his better looks lol.
