Respect Petrifying Bola. Punish after Petrifying Bola. Stay above half health; Lethal Venom scales with missing health.

  • Vyper wins the farm by ~11.9 last hits per match. Prioritise safe last hits and denies over trades, and let your lane partner zone.
  • Vyper looks for burst windows. Don’t sit in lane at low health, and ping the moment they disappear — they’re hunting.
  • Your own sustain (Siphon Life, Infernal Resilience) wins extended lanes — stay longer than they can.

Deadlock Bible take

Playing Abrams in this match

A bully who wins by refusing to leave. Every fight Abrams takes, he wants to take at shotgun range.

Lane
Walk forward whenever Siphon Life is up and trade through the enemy’s pokes; Infernal Resilience pays you back for the damage you take. Hold Shoulder Charge until they’re near a wall.
Mid game
Roam to the lane with the squishiest pair and charge one of them into terrain. You’re the team’s door-opener on Walkers.
Late game
Seismic Impact is a teamfight starter: land on the backline, stun three, Siphon, let your carries follow. Buy anti-CC so you can’t be kited.

Beta. Win rates, synergies and item stats come from 5.17M recent matches; swap-ins, upgrade order and plans are our calls on top of that data.
