I think they ruined reptile in MKDA. Just because they changed him to an actual reptile. In my opinion they shouldve kept him as a ninja. What do you guys think?

It doesn't matter to me that he looks like a lizard, he just looks to cartoonish. I really don't like his moves either, but I always get a kick out of his fatality.

In my opinion they saved his character. The best part is now he has a strong enough story to make him and integral part of MK.

Definately agreed there. He needed more of a story instead of being sent after Kitana, or just following orders all the time.

As for his look, I think it looks EXCELLENT. He is a reptile, and while some people don't seem to like his look, I don't think I could stand another ninja tongue.
He needed some independance, and now he's got it, not only in looks in story as well smile.

Reptile looks way better in mkda.I was sick of having a bunch of pallette swap ninjas clogging up the game, beside his name is "Reptile" so he should look like one.

I was SO glad to finally see a change in the ninjas! I was so booooooooooooooored of the usual "ninja" look.

Reotile has defenatly his best look, they way they changed his old "same-looking" image (Scorpion, Sub-Zero 1 and 2, Rain, Ermac, Noob...) and made him more original. He defenatly kicks ass. Finally with a new improven image!

Also, Sub....even though he still looks the same, I HATE that they made him look so old...but it was a good change for him. Finally something new. And even though Scorpion STILL looks the same way...and its kind a boring for me....hes ok.

So, IMO, Reotiles new look kicks ass!

I think looks are very important on a character. I mean, for example, I would rather Sonya stay how she is, a Top Tier (not numebr 1) with deadly moves and very poweful styles, just the way she is, and have a cool sexy look, the one she has now, THEN see her in Number 1, more powerful then ever and anyone AND looking like some old pig.

Just a couple more things about him. What's up with the crab style, it's funny, but it makes you take him less serious.

In his weapon stance, his windmill sword move up+Square looks rediculous. The arm movement is great, but his feet just freekin float across the floor without him taking a step. Like he's push toy. I just can't take his character seriously.

Crab is on the TOP 5 most powerful fighting styles of MKDA...Reptile is to be taken very seriously.

I wasn't dissapointed with Reptile, but I was pretty annoyed when I unlocked him in the krypt and he had basically the same look. They should gave him a ninja costume like they did Sub-Zero. Reptile doesn't have any moves that require him to be in his reptile form. The only move they would of had to change would be his fatality. So here's a couple fatality concepts. Reptile could have either taken his mask off and performed it, or just transformed back into his reptile form and did it. Either one would have been good to see and wouldn't have required them to change anything major. So, just to satisfy both sides this would have worked out well. Maybe they'll do this for MK6.

he's going to be the dragon king in mk6 so there is no reason for the ninja suit since he'll be too reptilian to fit into it
