We can all agree that the capability to employ one-way smoke tactics is the most distinct part of Viper’s kit. This ability makes her deadly in even the highest echelon of the player base. It appears that many Viper enthusiasts are yet to realize the power of Poison Clouds of this agent, which unfortunately hinders her ability to excel as a controller. Those who have a firm grip on her mechanics are bound to radiate brilliance, regardless of the location on the map they are defending. So next time you play Viper on Pearl, use these one-way clouds to unleash hell on the attackers.

This one-way smoke is tried and tested to increase your chance of success; therefore, we urge you to learn it.
