Best Vyse Setups On Pearl
Vyse is one of the newer agents in the game, although she has been out for a while it’s still rare to see someone utilizing her to her maximum capability. In this guide, we will show you how to use Vyse, with creative defending and attacking setups.
Yes, attacking too, we will show you where to use your abilities when you attack, as she can be very overpowered on both sides. So let’s start shall we? Here’s the best guide for Vyse on Pearl:
Defending Side
A Site
On A site, you are a powerhouse. With this setup, you can make sure to at least get 2 enemies down before you are traded.
Use your flash high on back site, giving you the opportunity to flash and peek.
Place your wall right on the choke point so only 1 player can walk through and is then isolated.
Put your thorns on default, and activate it instantly if you hear a dash or a satchel as it will most likely be to default.
B Site
For B site, your setup is tailored to isolate and kill enemies a lot easier. If not, you could still utilize it to aggress on enemies playing B long.
Place your flash high up in front of halls. This will allow you to activate it and peek if needed.
Use your thorns on default, as this will ensure you can still stall enemies, deal damage and block plant even if you are not getting kills.
Your wall should be angled right on the choke point of B main to isolate enemies.
Attacking Side
A Site
On the attacking side, your utility can be very useful and here’s how to make the best out of it:
Place your flash high through main’s wall and activate it as you push
Throw your molly (thorns) back site and activate it instantly to deal or slow damage on enemies
Use your wall far back to detect any flanking player
B Site
Lastly on B, this is the perfect setup to gaining control while also supporting your team with your abilities:
Throw your thorns back site, as this will deal damage and stop anyone from peeking easily
Flash through default, place it high and that will cover so many spots
Use your wall far back to detect any flankers, and voila, free site for you.
Pro Tips
- Vyse’s wall is a very versatile ability. It’s not just used to defend a site, but also to detect flanks on the attacking side. When you place the wall, it will alert you if anyone walks through, working like a perfect Cypher trip.
- Your flash can be placed through walls. So even through a thicker wall you could still place it and use it. Although it has a little bit of time before it activates so you will not be able to use it as a fast paced flash.
- Remember that your abilities can still deal damage to you, so make sure you understand Vyse’s mechanics to not get caught off guard from your own abilities.
- Enemies can still move through your thorns (Molly) if they shift (walk) so make sure you are aware of that. It will make no sound if enemies are just walking through your molly.
- Because your flash is made to be set up, you can use the flash with your gun out which makes it incredibly powerful especially when you’re defending a site. Use that to your advantage.
- Your ultimate blocks enemies from using primary weapons. But they can still use pistols and ultimates, so beware from a Jett or an ulted Chamber that will peek you after your ability has hit them.
- Try to not waste your abilities on attack until you’ve secured a plant on site. As before, it is difficult for you to get value without lurking. As a Vyse, you should lurk or set up for post plant with your abilities on the attacking side.
