The Ebon Armor definitely need to be built around to maximize their effectiveness, although starting with 4 figures with 4 attack gives them an advantage in starting fire power at the very least.

Okay, compare away to Cyprien. Cyprien destorys Viceron in a head-to-head fight almost 70% of the time, nearly 80 if Sonya is also around. The Vampire Lord can potentially double up on life drain in a turn and 8 move + stealth flying gives him insane reach and versatility.
Viceron shines brightest against squads, particularly lower attack squads where his defense can hold up. Cyprien otherwise outstrips him against all but soulborg heroes and can still do well against squads (that is not to say that Viceron is useless against heroes either, but he is strictly worse than someone like Siege in a duel).
