¶ Notes & Tips
- The radius spreads over time (about
1s), meaning it can be more easily reacted to if far away from Viper (like Yueshan V3). - Briefly staggers foes that were marked at the end of the cast time, interrupting any action they were doing, except if the target is in the Ultimate Focus state.
- Foes that are near the staggered target will also get staggered and take damage, even if they are invisible.
- Viper can move freely and attack during the entire cast.
- Grants Viper
40%damage reduction during the entire cast. - Most Viper players utilize V3 to regain prio to start a combo. To prevent this, short hop the moment V3 is about to stagger. This will knock you to the grounded state preventing most combos. A good player though may recognize this and have combos that start from grounded state or simply release a blue charge. Best counter realistically is destroy line of sight from the ultimate.
- Ultimate can be countered by using the jade Phantom Step near the moment of stagger.
- In a Viper V3 ditto, you can counter the opponent's V3 by matching ult. There is about half a second during the opponent's ultimate startup frames where you can pop your ultimate. Since your ultimate's stagger will come second, you will have prio.
- This is true with other characters as well. You may pop ult during Viper's starting frames.
