{{Quotation|'''A FATE'S TALE'''|When it comes to breaking the law, not getting caught is a pretty important part of the job. Viper never got that memo. Luckily for her, if there's one thing she's better at than getting arrested, it's escaping out of jail.
=== Ability Changes ===
<!--For fresh data see [[Deadlock:Street Brawl Ability Changes]] -->
Apart from [[Street Brawl#Heroes|global changes]], Vyper does '''not''' have any special modifications for her abilities in Street Brawl.
=== Item Draft ===
{{HeroStreetBrawlItems|Vyper}}


Having done time in every major prison in the tri-state area, Viper has build an impressive network of street level lowlifes that owe her one. She's also built an impressive network of street level lowlifes that want her dead, but she tries to focus on the positive.}}

* [[Viper/Quotes]]
* Vyper's current appearance is a modified version of ''[[Neon Prime]]'s'' {{HeroIcon|Kali}}. Vyper's files also replaced some of Kali's original files.
* Vyper's lead developer is [[Hopoo]],<ref>2024-10-28 - Hopoo; Deadlock Discord - "''yes I was lead on viper (and magician), it's why neither was in the hero list previously"''</ref> best known as the co-creator of the ''[[wikipedia:Risk_of_Rain_2|Risk of Rain]]'' series.
* A work-in-progress Vyper redesign model was leaked in May 2025. This model had a Cobra hood, a snake body instead of legs, no clothes, and a "WIP" sticker on the back.
