from what I’ve gathered watching the Viper has taken on the lurk role in double controller comps even moreso than the senti - and lurking is what makes Noia’s senti gameplay so insane, so having her on the viper still lets her keep lurking + having lexi on senti she can play more off setups she’s given now that flash init is going extinct as a role - also in some ways vyse can play as a pseudo flash init on attack, leaning more into senti not playing as the lurk role and more into lexi’s skill set

they lost to hakikimori 5 months ago with a sub - and did beat them 2-0 the most recent time they played, if you’re going to bring up matches from that long ago at least know what you’re talking abt
