Slither in and assassinate enemies
When it comes to breaking the law, not getting caught is a pretty important part of the job. Vyper never got that memo. Luckily for her, if there’s one thing she’s better at than being arrested, it’s escaping out of jail.
Having done time in every major prison in the tri-state area, Vyper has built an impressive network of street level lowlifes that owe her one. She’s also built an impressive network of street level lowlifes that want her dead, but she tries to focus on the positive.
With a powerful weapon (and deadly venom to match), Vyper can slither into the back of teams and assassinate high-priority targets in a storm of bullets.
Vyper's four signature abilities, from Valve's game files.
Throw a dagger, dealing spirit damage and applying slow. Every subsequent dagger against the same target stacks in spirit damage and slow.
Inject a target with lethal venom. After a delay the venom triggers, dealing Spirit Damage. The damage is increased by the target's missing health.Lethal Venom will ignore Petrify's damage block.
You have increased Slide Distance, can Slide up hills, and can turn faster while Sliding.
Throw an explosive bola. On exploding, the bola Slows and Damages all enemies in the area. Direct hits deal Additional Damage and Petrify instead. Petrified units block all damage, but cannot take actions.
