This is one of my favorite cards. I think this is still the best Viper out there. Wish it had better art though....

The immune to events and character abilities is perhaps the most powerful aspect to him. He's expensive but on more than one occasion he alone has won the game for me.

is there a single better character card?

Lord trait, noble crest, tricon with renown immunity and a non kneeling to attack effect, this with
Lost Oasis (AToT) and Poisoned Knife (ASoSilence) is a destructive force

or alchemist shop with venemous blade for surprise deadly

In my mind Meera is still better. She hard counters quite a few of the problem cards in the game right now. I tend to be more of a utility guy though.

well i'll definitly give you that meera is up there but meera alone cant get you 7 power in 1 turn and utility or not that makes this one of the most dangerous cards to hit the board

I agree with jackmerridew. I can't think of any better characters out there. This guy just seems to win games for me.

Well that's the thing. He's really good at winning games, but he's terrible at controlling the table. There are a ton of ways to deal with him too, people generally don't run them though. There aren't really any answers to Meera. Except immunity I guess? Its a bit of an apples and oranges thing, so a bit hard to compare them in terms of power.
