These things don't make him unplayable by any means, but it does make us scratch our heads at what the designers were thinking when they sent our scaled friend into the arena. Like many of his video game counterparts, Reptile has several inconsistencies, strange design choices, glitches, and flaws that just don't make sense. Reptile is easily one of the more popular characters in the series, but let he who is without flaws cast the first claw.
With his claws, fangs, acid spit and snake-inspired kung fu stylings, it's no wonder Reptile has joined the roster in nearly every entry to the series. From a green-clad ninja to a sadistic serpent of Outworld. Like all of the rainbow ninjas in the series, Reptile has grown and developed a look, fighting style, and character all his own. He's come a long way from just being a bizarre hybrid of Scorpion and Sub-Zero. He's the big green Saurian from the outer worlds and he is bad! Since first debuting as a hidden character in the original Mortal Kombat, Reptile has been a shifty, shadowy, snake-like entity in the viciously intense fighting-game staple.
