Noxious Reptile is a great support character (if haven't put your hands on Mileena - Ravenous of course)  for all your characters that do Poison or Bleed damage over time. His stats aren't amazing, but all his special attacks have either Poison or Regen, which sort of makes up for it.

Nimble Reptile is one of the least used characters from all Reptiles in the game. His special attack 1 includes Poison DOT whist special attack 2 increases his speed. I would recommend using SP1 when fighting with him and always team him up with other outworld characters because of his passive ability.
