Reptile is one of the OG Mortal Kombat ninjas, having debuted as a secret Kombatant in the franchise's very first installment. Since then, he's appeared in just about every mainline entry, which made his inclusion in the starting roster for Mortal Kombat 1 something of a given in the eyes of most long-term fans of the franchise.
Inspired by the creatures from which he took his name, the Saurian is able to transform and spit out acid to decimate even the toughest of foes. Unsurprisingly, perhaps, these are abilities that can be seen in each of Reptile's Mortal Kombat 1 Fatalities, which are every bit as brutal as one might expect. Thankfully, however, they're fairly easy to pull off.

Reptile's first MK1 Fatality is called Indigestion and can be carried out by pressing forward, back, down, back kick while standing at medium range. If done correctly, Reptile will transform into his reptilian form, turn invisible, and then eat his opponent whole. It turns out that his eyes were too big for his belly though, as he soon vomits them back out. As they attempt to crawl away through a pool of stomach acid, Reptile slams down his hand and crushes their head in one quick and bloody motion.

To perform Reptile's second fatality, Mortal Kombat 1 players will need to press forward, down, back, front kick from close range. This causes Reptile to transform and then strangle the other Kombatant with his tongue. The corrosive acid from his tongue melts away their hands as they attempt to free themselves, after which, Reptile tightens his grip, tears off the head, and then proceeds to crush it with his jaws. As the other fighter's lifeless body falls to the ground, Reptile celebrates his victory with his chosen Kameo fighter.
Mortal Kombat 1 is available now on PC, PS5, Switch, and Xbox Series X|S.
