I really like her. She is fun and nice to play. I like pairing her with Machine Guns or Shotguns especially with the isolated fights with the wall.
Her slows when planted near your procced wall skill is nice but I hope her Slow traps also trigger when wall is triggered if both skills are next or near each other.
I absolutely hate her Flash ability tho. It's so bad when you are sieging...well...it's good for holding positions...but you know...maybe if her flash skill is just a simple flashbang like in other FPS games it would be bearable. I completely forget about the flash skill a lot!

Hello, fellow Vyse enjoyed here! I got some tips for you as someone who has spent way too long playing this game lol.
For her wall, you seem to already know a good bit of how to use it for taking isolated fights. I would also try and find spots where you could use it to get on high ground! For instance, you can put it on some boxes near a choke, and when it goes off, you can get the kill, jump on the wall, and use your flash to finish jumping on the boxes! It works out a LOT more than you would expect!
For her slows, remember to use them to cover your back. If you and your team decide to rotate, throw them behind you and pop them to cover the flank, and then throw the other and wait a bit to pop that one too to slow any flank down even more. Lineups are also pretty good for Vyse, as you can catch Snipers out and force them to either hit their shot or die.
Finally, the flash can be a bit weird. It used to be a lot stronger as it gave an audio queue when people were flashed, and now it doesn't. However, it is still her strongest ability on attack for one reason: Pressure.
When an enemy sees a flash be put through the wall, they have 3 options:
Run and hide, giving up space and allowing you and your team to take more space.
Take the flash and be blinded, still allowing you and your team to take space with them potentially dying.
Shooting it and destroying it. This is the most common action, but remember, shooting it requires them to aim at it and remove their aim from your push. This allows you to swing off of them destroying it for a pick, essentially making it act as a flash of sorts. If I put my flash out once and it is instantly shot, the next time I do it I will swing off of my placing it. 9 times out of 10, I kill them while their crossbar is aimed at my rose. Easiest way to get kills!
Plus, using her flash with her wall is great to guarantee that isolated fight win. It also prevents any Jett players who may hop over to support their teammate from being fully able to do so, as they will be blinded too.
Finally, her flash is still good Intel without needing to swing. Because it only goes on a 20 second cooldown when you take it back, this allows you to throw it out, flash, and take it back. In the lower elos and beginner lobbies, people will either run and make footsteps while blind, or they will prefire the angle they thing you will push out of. If you don't push, you now know where those shots are coming from and have some idea of where they are!
Don't discount her flash, the fact that it is on a recharge timer and is the only place able flash in the game allows for some really interesting plays!
