Attack Side Breakdown

Omen significantly outperforms Viper on attack side, achieving a 52.2% round win rate versus 43.3%. This 8.9 point disparity reveals Omen as the clearly superior offensive agent in this head-to-head, with advantages that Viper cannot easily overcome through individual skill alone.

Based on 20 matches analyzed, Omen dominates attack-side scenarios through multiple vectors. Entry success rate, post-plant conversion, and mid-round adaptability all favor Omen significantly. Viper teams must make structural adjustments to their attack approach: rely less on Viper for key fragging roles, design executes that minimize Viper's direct engagement with Omen, and consider how team composition can cover Viper's offensive weaknesses. Simply "playing better" isn't enough to overcome a 8.9% gap.

Viper should avoid entry fragging roles against Omen whenever possible. The data clearly shows Omen wins a disproportionate share of first contacts on attack. Viper players should volunteer for support roles — flashing for teammates, trading entries, or lurking to create map pressure without direct Omen confrontation. If forced to entry, wait for maximum utility support and ensure a trade is guaranteed. Omen can and should take aggressive entries, knowing statistical backing supports confident play.

Post-plant scenarios heavily favor Omen in this matchup. Viper struggles to convert spike plants into round wins at the same rate, whether due to weaker defuse denial, inferior retake resistance, or less effective post-plant positioning. Viper teams should never leave Viper alone in post-plant — always have teammates nearby for crossfires and trades. Consider giving the spike to a different player when possible. Omen should recognize their post-plant dominance and play for spike aggressively after site takes.

Defense Side Breakdown

Omen substantially outclasses Viper on defense, achieving 56.7% round wins compared to 47.8%. This 8.9 percentage point gap indicates Omen excels at core defensive tasks — anchoring sites, gathering information, stalling executes, and contributing to retakes — at a level Viper cannot match.

Viper should never solo anchor against Omen. The 8.9% defensive gap makes isolated site holds extremely unfavorable for Viper. Instead, pair Viper with a teammate, give them off-site positions that allow early rotates, or have them play supportive roles that don't require extended site holds. Omen should actively anchor difficult sites, knowing their defensive capabilities significantly exceed Viper's.

Retake dynamics heavily favor Omen. When Viper needs to retake against Omen, success requires overwhelming numbers and utility coordination — never attempt equal-number retakes and absolutely avoid solo retakes. Omen should play post-plant positions confidently, knowing Viper struggles to clear them effectively. In clutch scenarios, Omen has a significant statistical edge that Viper cannot overcome through individual skill alone.

Economy management becomes critical for Viper in this matchup. Force buying against Omen is mathematically unfavorable — the defensive gap compounds when utility is limited. Viper should advocate for full saves, ensuring full buy rounds have maximum utility to compensate for their defensive disadvantages. Omen can confidently force buy, knowing their defensive kit provides advantages that partially compensate for economic disadvantages.

Overall Side Analysis

Omen demonstrates commanding superiority on both attack (52.2%) and defense (56.7%), comprehensively outperforming Viper across all phases of the game. Based on our analysis of 20 competitive matches, this is one of the more one-sided agent matchups in Valorant, with Omen holding advantages at every stage.

Map selection and team composition cannot fix Viper's disadvantage in this matchup. Omen outperforms across all map types and team structures. If you're playing Viper into Omen, your team composition needs to compensate heavily: strong fragging agents to carry Viper's weight, utility-heavy supports to cover their positioning, and coordination to avoid leaving Viper in isolated Omen encounters.

For ranked climbing, avoid playing Viper when you expect to face Omen frequently. The 17.9 combined percentage point disadvantage across both sides is too large to overcome through individual skill improvement. If Omen is meta in your rank bracket, strongly consider adding them to your agent pool or playing agents that have more neutral matchups.

Final verdict: Omen decisively wins the Viper vs Omen matchup. This isn't a skill check or a "play better" situation — Omen has systematic advantages that manifest across thousands of games. Viper players facing Omen should adjust expectations, play more supportively, and recognize that direct confrontations are statistically unfavorable at every stage of the game.

Controller vs Controller Dynamics

Both Viper and Omen fill the Controller role in Valorant team compositions. This role mirror means teams won't face composition issues from having both agents — the question is purely which Controller performs better in direct competition. Our data clearly indicates Omen is the stronger Controller pick when these agents face each other.

In Controller vs Controller encounters, similar ability timing and usage patterns mean both agents often use their kits in comparable ways. The winner typically comes down to which player uses their abilities more efficiently and wins the mechanical duels that follow. Omen's statistical advantage suggests their specific Controller kit translates slightly better to winning these mirror encounters.
