'''Viscous''' is a [[Hero]] in ''[[Deadlock]]''. He is a vexing opponent with versatile goo abilities, a psychic sea anemone with an ectoplasmic goo body. He can Splatter his foes with a large ball of goo and Puddle Punch both allies and enemies to knock them around, while encasing himself or allies in a Cube of goo for protection. For maximum disruption, Viscous can morph into a large Goo Ball and bounce off of walls and enemies alike.
'''Viscous''' is a [[Hero]] in ''[[Deadlock]]''. He's green.<ref name=":0">[[Update:August 1, 2024]]</ref> The Deep will be silent no longer once Viscous throws Splatter, covering the area in green goo and slowing down his victims and leaving them suspectible to his Puddle Punches, which will knock his enemies away from their friends and his friends away from their enemies. Even if they manage to catch Viscous it doesn't matter, as The Cube will make people completely invulnerable long enough for them to recover. Soon Goo Ball comes, and walls painted green will be joined by echoes of screams.  


Viscous is a psychic sea anemone that fears a dark, dangerous predator that prowls the depths under the Bermuda Triangle. He reached the surface in a body built from ectoplasmic goo; his mission to summon the [[Patron]]s to protect his home in the Deep.
