1 meter efficient easy reptile combo
j.p 32exffb n.p 32 sfb 321 slide (another sfb preferably as it will cause pressure on their wake up)
^ 43%

You must fail the move, you do 321 and then Elbow Dash, that move doesnt hit the opponent, its just to let you approach to the opponent in time to hit him again.

bait him into lift/push then elbowdash punish, be wary of his wakeups, if you elbow dash and block immediatly after blocking his fireball you can block his next fireball allowing you to safely close distance.
hes one of the easiest matchups imo. you zone better then him, and can punish his lift/push with elbowdash.
I am finding Ermac the most trouble also.
I was watching a Rep vid (may have been from here) don't watch many, but he kept doing - 1,2,2,1 combo followed by what looked like a
dash and Evolution which is forward+2, back+1. I can do this up to the first hit of Evolution but then opponent is pushed too far for second hit to land.
Before I practice more - there hasn't been any patches that change how this works has there?
Thanks

You can extend the 3,2,1 - Elbow Dash (whiff) - NJP - 3,2 - Fast forceball - 3,2,1 - Slime Trail combo by doing:
3,2,1 - Elbow Dash (whiff) - NJP - -3,2 - Slow Forceball - 3,2 - EX Fast Foreball (no charge) - 3,2,1 Slide/Slime Trail
Dows 40/41% damage, 14/16 hits.

I desperately need to know how to deal with F***ING sub-zero. He pisses me off, I literally can't do shit against him. He just keeps a clone out and basically says "F**K you". It's pissing me off.

firstly, all but abandon your elbow dash. secondly, embrace your zoning, but zone SMART, dont zone so that you would trade with his iceball, use force balls unpredictably and use acid spit more. if you can, try and damage him at close range thru the ice barrier, it will shatter and THEN you can quickly elbow dash/rush him.
quite simply its not a super easy fight.

32exffb n.p 32 sfb 321 slide is much easier and does the same damage (40%) with one bar. You dont have to do the elbowdashwhiff n.p
the exffb also pops them up REALLY high giving you all the time in the world to land the n.p

is it possible for them to block between the 3,2 and the xxffb? because maybe i was slow but ive seen people somehow block between 3,2 xxsfb. if it isnt possible then ya its good.

they can block the normal Ball. but the EX Balls are all part of the combo!

well thats pretty cool then. i still like to save bars for breakers/xrays since i have gotten better at nabbing the njp after a dash whiff, but its still realy nice.
