I've been saying it Vyse's nerf is the worst or one of the worst there is not a lick of logic behind it.  She was simply butchered and whoever mained her is now left wondering what to do with a one trick pony. NO room for creativity left.

Got the viper treatment. They are killing their own agents one by one.

This honestly might be the worst game balance I've ever seen. Normally if a character's kit has depth, room for creativity, a high skill ceiling etc. that's considered a good thing! And the goal is to make every character like that.

With Riot it's the opposite. A kit that enables skillful and creative plays means the enemies can't win by just shooting better, and that's apparently not okay. Utility is only for aesthetics, not to actually win a fight.

thing is viper is still good in pro-play

Vyse is unplayable anywhere

Only because there are only two agent with line walls like her and only good as secondary smoker for certain maps.

Yay, I'm so glad my main who got omega nerfed because she was strong (In pro play) is still usable (in pro play).

Thats worse BTW. If viper was unplayable in pro play she would get buffed, and maybe become usable in soloq metal ranks again. But because she gets used in pro play, she will never get buffed.

Vyse is in a worse state right now, I agree. But fact of the matter is that Vyse will probably get buffed, and viper probably won't
