Attack Side Breakdown
Astra demonstrates a modest attack-side advantage over Viper in this matchup, converting 48.7% of attacking rounds versus 46.0%. While this 2.7 point edge gives Astra slightly better site-taking capability, the gap remains narrow enough that skilled Viper players can overcome it through superior execution and team play.
The data from 47 competitive games suggests Astra's kit provides marginally better tools for attack-side scenarios. This could manifest as slightly more effective entry utility, better post-plant stalling, or superior mid-round adaptability. However, Viper teams shouldn't dramatically alter their attacking approach — instead, focus on tightening execute timing, coordinating utility chains more precisely, and ensuring trades are happening when entries fail. Small improvements in team coordination can easily overcome a 2.7% gap.
When taking entry duels, Astra holds a slight statistical advantage but nothing that should change fundamental approach. Viper players should still take confident entries when they have good information or utility support. The key adjustment is ensuring you're not taking unnecessary 50-50 duels — look for angles where you have an advantage through utility, information, or teammate support. Astra can play slightly more aggressively on entries, knowing the statistics marginally favor them.

In post-plant situations, Astra's slight advantage likely stems from better utility for denying defuses or controlling retake angles. Viper should compensate by being more deliberate about post-plant positioning — take spots that offer escape routes or trade potential rather than hero plays. Stack post-plants with teammates when possible, and use utility efficiently to maximize delay time. The 2.7 point gap can be neutralized through smart post-plant fundamentals.
Defense Side Breakdown
Astra shows slightly better defensive capabilities than Viper, winning 54.0% of defense rounds compared to 51.3%. This 2.7 percentage point edge suggests Astra's kit provides marginally better tools for CT-side play, though the gap remains small enough for skilled Viper players to overcome.
When deciding site assignments, Astra can slightly more confidently take solo anchor roles. Their 2.7% defensive advantage likely stems from better stalling utility, superior information gathering, or more effective site-holding positions. Viper should consider pairing with a teammate on their site rather than solo anchoring, or taking positions that allow early rotates rather than committing to extended holds. The advantage is small but worth considering in close games.
Astra demonstrates marginally better retake capability in this matchup. Whether through superior clearing utility, better post-plant positioning, or stronger clutch mechanics, Astra converts retakes at a slightly higher rate. Viper should focus on retaking with numbers — don't take hero 1v1 retakes against Astra when you can wait for teammates. Astra can be slightly more confident in isolated retake situations, knowing the statistics marginally favor them.
On eco and force buy rounds, the 2.7% gap becomes more pronounced as utility advantages compound. Viper should be more conservative with eco aggression against Astra and prioritize saving for full buys where team utility can compensate for individual disadvantages. Astra can play slightly more aggressively on force buys, knowing their defensive kit provides small but meaningful advantages even with limited economy.
Overall Side Analysis
Astra holds clear advantages on both attack (48.7%) and defense (54.0%), establishing themselves as the superior choice in the Astra vs Viper matchup regardless of map side. This consistency across both halves means Astra doesn't need to play for specific sides or rely on winning a particular half to succeed.
Astra's advantage holds across all map types and team compositions. Whether on attack-sided, defense-sided, or balanced maps, Astra performs better. Viper teams should consider compositions that can cover their weaknesses — pair Viper with strong fragging agents who can carry during their difficult matchup encounters, and ensure utility supports Viper's positioning.
For ranked climbing specifically, Astra is the objectively better pick in this matchup. If you're equally comfortable on both agents and frequently face this matchup, practicing Astra provides a measurable ranked advantage. Viper players should focus on team play, utility value, and avoiding direct Astra confrontations rather than trying to outfrag them.
The verdict is clear: Astra wins this matchup on both sides of the map. The combined 5.4 percentage point advantage across attack and defense represents a meaningful statistical edge. Viper isn't unplayable, but faces an uphill battle requiring stronger team support and more disciplined play to compete.
