Viscous Duos & Synergies
Who works best with Viscous in Deadlock? Best duo partners and worst pairings for Viscous, ranked by win rate together over recent matches.
Viscous wants a partner who can turn a stalled fight into a kill, and Seven fits perfectly. Viscous can peel, disrupt, and buy space with his cube while Seven ramps up and channels big area damage into a locked-down group. You bring the setup and survivability; Seven brings the payoff. The same logic works with Victor and Graves, who both want a frontline that refuses to die and keeps enemies pinned in bad spots long enough for their damage to land clean.
Viscous wins 48.41% of matches overall (#24 of 38 heroes) since the Matchmaking Update. Its best duo is Graves — together they win 55.58%; the weakest pairing is Silver at 41.97%.
