    I think it's situational, if the site you're going will have more close angles, the phantom's much better. If there are gonna be some longer range fights def get the Vandal also boils down to playstyle too. I normally try to switch it up sometimes. If i am performing well with the spectre on the lower buy rounds, i'll get the phantom. But if i feel a little off with my sprays, i'll get the vandal for sure. The Vandal just feels more accurate sometimes :)

      no shit this is why we are comparing both of vandal and phantom because there are situational but what is the weapon you should use for all the ranges you can't change guns mid round to get the best from the ranges and you don't play a specific like I am just gonna stay away from the enemies and use my weapon or I am just gonna push the enemies or shorten the distances you can't do that in your will of doing or you die, I prefer vandal as it supports all ranges not the best in spray transfers but if you have that weapon most likely will your skill you are gonna win

    Nice video I would definitely focus on recoil as well, but till now I think best way is how I use both guns. I use vandal on long range with max 3 Bullet burst I don't spam vandal only rarely on the other hand if I know I'm gonna play on short range I use phantom as it has much higher fire rate and phantom is better ik short ranges much more than vandal that's what I found out in my experience

  • @Sinrix
    @Sinrix Před rokem +2

    Imo, i think everyone takes fights differently, let’s say you’re really comfortable taking fights long range, but you struggle close, i suggest doing the opposite of what you think you’re better at and instead of choosing the vandal trying to get those long range engagements, use the phantom because it’ll help you with close since you are so comfortable taking long, if you’re bad with long but good with short, choose the vandal, i myself use the vandal and it’s been much easier taking fights because i suck at long but short is where i excel at, so i just makeup for my terrible long range with the vandal helping me out

  • @kushgupta2962

    what i used to do wrong was use a vandal as my main gun because my friends told me to and was still using phantom combos like crouching and all which made me terrible at the game so if you are not good with your one taps you should first try using only sherrif as warmups in deatmatches and range then you should hop in with a vandal but if u cant do that just improve your sprays

    I prefer phantom and tbh those times when u x2 hs the enemy makes you love the game more! Sometimes it's frustrating but you know the rifle you pick and it ain't that hard to play around it's "weakness" especially if you play controllers or cypher or anything that denies vision and let's you push in, cause suddenly there is no weakness but only advantages. Other than that with all the blinds, smokes etc that exist in the game phantom is just better you don't get your position revealed when the enemy team does. Many times i've been called a cheater getting kills through smokes when the enemy just spays with vandal and get their position revealed.

  • @peptoyo
    @peptoyo Před rokem +1

    Wait does this happen to people switching back to the Phantom? I notice the opposite switching back to the Vandal. Thus, I no longer use Prime or "pew-pew" sounding skins... anything that significantly dampens the sound throws my brain off and find myself at the end of the round like it's not a Phantom. The bigger the sound the more likely you are to distinguish the difference when it counts after the buy.

    Best way to improve this is to just learn both and buy the gun that is beneficial for your playstyle for a certain map, for example on ascent i'm always buying phantom because i'm gonna be dashing as Jett onto site which will make medium range phantom better but if i'm playing fracture i'm gonna play vandal because i'm gonna play more aggresively with longer angles where the 1 shot headshot will be more beneficial

  • @mephisto2812
    @mephisto2812 Před rokem +2

    actually, the secret most spectre and phantom user have is to make it easy to aim. you can do that by binding your crouch with your left click. it takes 3 bullets shot before you actually do a full crouch which will auto correct your next 3 bullets to be closer to each other but do remember that you will still have to move your mouse down on the 6th bullet. thing about this is its more work a bit longer time to kill than vandal .

    Wait it's literally the other way arround though. Phantom gun recovery is 35s and vandal is 375s. tap firirng (fast) with both guns if you let them reset the phantom will always reset faster then the vandal. It would not make sense for a rifle that deals less dmg to have worse recoil reset. Here's how you can look at it: Vandal big pp dmg hard to controll recoil, Longer reset time.
    Phantom although silenced, Less dmg, Longer time to kill, But easyer to controll and faster recoil reset.

      @Gravity_304 Před rokem

      phantom has much faster time to kill because it shoots a lot faster. Thats 350ms recovery time you are talking about works when you tap fire bullets 1 by 1. With vandal you can shoot 1-3 bullets at a time and it'll recover much faster, but in the same time period that you shoot 3 bullets with vandal, phantom shoots like 5. Thats why Phantom's recoil stacks up quickly and even though it has lower insividual bullet recovery time, it has a higher revovery time overall. Even if you tap mb1 once you fire like 2-3 bullets with phantom because of its fire rate.

    Basically same as Vandal, but worse.

    As someone who is relatively new... The vandal just feels so much more accurate? I dont hate the phantom but it just feels objectively worse than the vandal. I'm not saying it is objectively worse but it certainly feels like it to me.

      a phantom user defeats a vandal user close quarters any day of the week. Actually, a Phantom probably defeats every single gun in the game in 10-15m range. Phantom has a "sweet range" that is between 10-15 meters, where shotguns and pistols cant really kill you, longer ranged guns have problems and Phantom can still 1 shot people. Lets think about it. All the below fights are occuring in the 10-15m "sweet range"
      Phantom wins against any pistol in 10-15m range, maybe except sheriff. Sheriff can win but they need to land a headshot which is very hard in close range especially with that the Phantom user can just spray them down.
      Phantom wins against both smgs in 10-15m range. SMGs can win but if the Phantom user manages to headshot they are dead anyways so it comes down to aim
      Shotguns deal max damage till like 5-7 meters so its not even close
      Bulldog, wins easily
      Guardian, has to headshot the Phantom user otherwise dead
      Vandal, dead but its a close 50/50. Whoever lands the headshot wins. Phantom can hit the head easier in close range because of its superior accuracy and fire rate
      Marshall, not even close. Op wins if they hit their shot but the Phantom user can play around them if they know what theyre doing.
      Finally the MGs. Wins again because MGs dont 1 shot headshot and they are most effective in 20-30 meters.
      So in a perfect world where the Phantom user can hit the head all the time, Phantom is just statistically the best weapon in the game in 10-15m range. And it still holds its own till 30 meters because its also statistical that over 80% of fights where the Phantom user dings the enemy for 140 kills them afterwards anyway. But after 30 meter Phantom really falls off, and Vandal is still slightly better in 15-30m range so it should only be buyed if you are going to fight in close quarters.
      It feels bad to use at first after using vandal the whole time but once you get the hang of it and buy it in proper times just the gun itself will win you many fights that you otherwise wouldnt have won.
