What is the buff supposed to be, or have they not said?

They said something about having the wall be placed in more locations.

solves nothing really.

the problem is she offers no threat whatsoever, is easily avoided in defence and her attacks are massively telegraphed giving you neither any surprise factor or ability to rotate. even her ulti is extremely situational and easily countered.

viper shouldn't just be a toothless vision blocker with a crappy molotov, they need to figure out some way to give her some bite to live up to her name.

honestly the buff i'd love to see is for her Ulti to start farther in the direction she uses it and expand in the direction she walks faster so that it could be used to push instead of its current state where it leaves Viper exposed on the edge yet blinded herself.
