Does Viper Need a Nerf?

Viper has basically been a must pick on several maps since Astra Meta.
Currently she is a must/good pick on:
Pearl, Bind, Lotus, Split
and also is a competitive pick on the rest of the maps as well.
Does Viper need a nerf? And if yes, how would yall nerf her kit?

no

no, the time on her smokes are ass. and the cool down sucks too.

No we need another sentinel/controller with a similar lurker role. Next agent is sentinel I hope they can deliver by making a good lurker. Kj cant lurk and cypher cages dont put as much pressure as walls.

Yea I agree with ur take. Right now there just isn't a lurker agent available similar to Viper's kit which can take map control as easily as she does.

no viper doesnt need a nerf

The only other way it becomes more balanced is if they make cypher cages not be a single use ability. They always stay but have less uptime than viper and you can put them up multiple times in a round. It would help his anchoring ability and his lurking ability. Viper has the abilities to threaten lurks multiple times in a round, cypher has once per round so if you give him more opportunities you might see him be a good rival to viper.
