is it even possible to have fun with them
if you look at any other smokes theres at least one way you can play the agent for your own kill
brim is super annoying if ur a lineup larry
omen u can blind them and tp behind their back
harbor has cubby wall and boing boing
clove is already a ranked monster
but what can you even do with viper and astra
lurk
just flank with cypher or kj
some people want to lurk but still play smokes because if they go senti their smokes will be brain damaged
haven:
Viper orb on Ct (both a and C) and watch as the plebians struggle to get onto site. (Same works with ult.)
can be annoying for the other team
They hopelessly jump through window as you spray with an odin, it's fucking beautiful...
ok that actually kinda sounds fun lmao
the orb decays, The molly vulnerables, so if they TRY to go through your smoke they just DIE
and if you have an ASTRA she can pop a 2nd smoke in the same spot while ur poison recharges.
The same works with her ult as well except it covers more ground.
This works for ANY map with a really tight CT choke.
her wall also gives God tier lurk timings and pressure, wall mid, get behind wall, put wall down, check for people, put wall back up, move to the other side, rinse and repeat until you catch the instalock reyna lackin'
Astra is fine for Abyss due to how she can be smoke lurking with no problem, the issue comes with Viper if she doesnt have a second smoker cause I went against one on Sunset the other day and she had no lineup for her smoke orb for anything and her walls was so restrictive for her own team that she solo lost her team all rounds cause of how useless the wall is without a smoke orb lineup to block off the other avenue of floods
yea u really cant to anything with viper unless ur like smoke lineup nerd
viper is very fun they get decayed when they push thru the wall + extra dmg on molly just spam and u good for 1
astra is fully capable of being a selfish agent. the only two controller agents that are more gun out than astra are clove and viper.
Astra suck for defuse in post plant is fun, but that's pretty much it
Lurking as well ig
