Mortal Kombat 9/Reptile

Reptile

His home realm of Zaterra is gone, mysteriously destroyed ages ago. Reptile is the last known surviving member of his race. He has since made Outworld his home. Shao Kahn has made use of Reptile's mastery of stealth to spy on suspected traitors and slay known enemies of the empire. But the knowledge that he is the last of his kind gnaws at Reptile. He would give anything, kill anyone, if it would bring his realm back from the abyss. Self-pity fuels his aggression as he inflicts suffering and death on others.

Special Attacks

Elbow Dash

Fastest best punisher in the game. Use it to mix up opponents. Enhance version you can combo a slide at the end. You can use the standard elbow dash to get away without being hit. Also use it to get in front of your slow charged forceballs to fool opponents. Beware that it's punishable on block.

Acid Hand

Safe on block. Enhance version launches.

Forceballs

You cannot combo 2 of the same forceball speeds in a combo. They will drop. You can use slow to fast and fast to slow in combos.
