Reptile's placement makes perfect sense, imo. He has safe armor, above average zoning, excellent mobility and mixups all as part of his base kit, and one of the better mids in the game.

@RoyArkon 10 күн бұрын

Reptile's Zoning in MKX was one of the best in the game. Having the ability to have two or even 3 projectiles at once, as well as stopping the Forceballs in their place allows to control the pace of the match to perfection.

@MultiDevon123 10 күн бұрын

He doesn't really change much outside of damage (Nimble), unblockable (noxious), and whatever deceptive is (my fav variation btw). He's essentially a all around character.

@RoyArkon 10 күн бұрын

@@MultiDevon123Actually he does. Noxious Reptile gets more room to use his Zoning and EX moves since he doesn't need meter for the Poison Gas, then for Deceptive and Nimble he has to use meter a lot more for pressure (Deceptive) or damage (Nimble).

@azezel3176 10 күн бұрын

Funny you say that. When MKX was going strong everyone was complaining how brain-dead the game is with 50/50's, mixups too strong and stupid. That's why MK11 was more neutral focused.

@ashtonramsey386 10 күн бұрын

@@azezel3176i think that's because when mkx came out we never had a game like that before and we wasn't use to that play style in all the 50/50s plus pressure and crazy ish that was in it but now we appreciate mkx because it's fast paced and fun and it makes us be more aware of all the crazy ish all the characters has and yes mk11 is more balanced and mk1 is still tryna find its way to be fun but mkx is just fun overall now that we understand it

I wanted to throw an MKX variationless tournament, but all the people who felt it was a good idea were also scared to play because nobody had practice with variationless characters. I gave them time to learn, and they still didn't want to join. Why? Because no one wanted to lose. I just wanted to have a fun tournament that was different and not taken too seriously.

In MKX variations are a bonus. In MK11, moves are integral, although replaceable. Without them a character is a skeleton of itself at best.

The only character without variationless mode is Triborg (which I rather call him "Quad"borg due to getting the Cyber-SubZero variation, making him the only character with 4 actual variations, and as you said, mod/hax shenanigans doesn't count), is interesting how many characters really fall big time, and the very few that loses almost nothing to keep being the danger they are with variations.

Amazing video. But one potential error in it. While Variationless Jax is ordinary, Jax with variations was not a weak character at all. In fact his Heavy Weapons Variation was pretty OP. Not the most technically fluid, but it helped win matches in hard mode, and once I met a professional player in a lounge in 2015 who was generally much better and faster but I narrowly lost 3-2 to him, albeit in a friendly match over drinks using Jax's Heavy Weapons variation.
