WTF, snake >_>

[TheEliteSmasher]

Ok. I need help. Snake seriously used to be one of my easiest matchups. I've lost to 6 snakes in a row. God I'm in a slump

 

[itsthebigfoot]

nah the snakes just learned how to play mk's, your at a disadvantage now, enjoy it, it means the newbies have to shut up about mk being broken

 

[Staco]

Try to play clever.
Dont hit the granads, sometimes just wait what the Snake does.
Try to get Snake offstage and then Up B his Cypher to finish him.

The last time I checked, it was still 55:45 MK's favor.

Dont look at the matchup chart all the time.
Watch in the character boards.
There is a thread in the MK boards how to fight MK with Snake.

Well, both the snake and MK boards have it listed as MK having a 55:45 advantage. That's just one person's opinion

55:45 Snake...

That means you should be winning 55 out of 100 matches, if you are facing an opponent who knows just as much of the matchup as you do, and is of your same skill level.

You're just facing Snake's with more matchup experience then you, and possibly a greater skill level.

/end stupid post

Don't let him camp with 'nades.

55:45 Snake...

That means you should be winning 45 out of 100 matches, if you are facing an opponent who also knows just as much of the matchup as you do inside-and-out, and is a pro of your same skill level.

You're just facing Snake's with more matchup experience then you, and possibly a greater skill level.

Fix'd.

Most Pros say Snake > MK in advantage.
Most N00bs say MK > Snake.

Grenades and Snakes tilt's ruins MK's. All MK has in this match up is shuttle loop and grabs. And Snake is only disadvantaged like 5-10% of the whole match when your MK is edge guarding him compared to Snake having the on field advantage 90-95% of the whole match.

 

[Staco]

grab Snake a lot
then dthrow
I play snake, too, and I rly hate the dthrow of mk, if I play him ><

 

[ungulateman]

Uthrow.

[magikguy]

good luck getting a snake with an omnigay

 

[Skyflyer]

Uthrow.

Omnigay = fail.

 

[Eddie G]

They're both pretty even. It is more of a player dependent factor in this situation.

it is incredibly rare and not dependable as a competitive tactic, but it is funny as hell if you ever manage to catch someone with it in the middle of a real match

IMO snake vs MK is a pretty even match, maybe slightly in snakes favor, but I never feel that disadvantaged in it from either side.
