Vyper Counters
Who counters Vyper in Deadlock? Heroes Vyper is strong against and heroes it struggles against, ranked by win rate over recent matches.
Squishy laners who want space are the easy targets here. Sinclair, Mina, and Viscous all rely on positioning and setup to get value, and Vyper's aggression punishes them before they settle into a rhythm, forcing trades they don't want early. The trouble comes against durable, self-sustaining bruisers. Seven and Graves can weather the early pressure and outscale it, while Victor claws back the tempo Vyper needs to snowball. Once those three stabilize the lane, Vyper's window shrinks fast. Draft tip: pick Vyper into a soft backline you can bully early, and avoid her when the enemy stacks tanky sustain in the front line.
Vyper wins 50.69% of matches overall (#17 of 38 heroes) since the Matchmaking Update. Its most favorable matchup is Mirage at 56.36%; Graves is the toughest counter, holding Vyper to 43.04%.
