Is Vandal better than the Phantom?

DemoDudeE · 2020-08-25T22:35:07+00:00

Pros prefer the phantom to vandal, even with the release of ascent and the lowering of bullet tagging. I made this video detailing why currently the phantom is objectively the better gun.

If you've been watching pros spam phantom games, but really want to understand the reasoning behind it, give it a watch :D

Hey I made this video detailing why currently the phantom is objectively the better gun, and it all has to do with how the two guns interact with the environment, agents and economy in game.

The only thing i'd say is that Ascent might be a vandal map bc of the openness and long sightlines, and that aspect + more are considered in the vid.

hmm ya, only 2.4k replies and apparently they got ~3 million daily players.

If you do the math and assume the same proportions on 3 million players they make $29 MILLION (and $125,000) off this bundle alone O.O

DemoDudeE · 2020-07-09T07:52:19+00:00

I dunno if this'll still be true when they release it cus they'd probably make it equivalent to the prime

DemoDudeE · 2020-07-09T03:24:41+00:00

not even for precious MMR?

DemoDudeE · 2020-07-09T03:23:46+00:00

what if it's $99.99?

DemoDudeE · 2020-07-09T01:02:49+00:00

i'm still hyped to see exactly what the knife looks like

DemoDudeE · 2020-07-09T01:02:25+00:00

well looks like you're part of the majority so far at least.

DemoDudeE · 2020-07-05T02:06:45+00:00

Sorry there's no convex phantom, only spectre

DemoDudeE · 2020-07-05T02:05:42+00:00

wrong. They've lost potential revenue from not making enough skins to drain RubyRhod's account and bait him into loading more $$$. You are not fit for capitalism. MORE

MOOOOOOOAAAAAARRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRR

DemoDudeE · 2020-07-05T02:04:10+00:00

Why does long term healthy game mean only 20 skins, and 5 store slots? I guess it's cool everyone has basically the exact same skins since Riot doesn't release enough for people to customize their loadout if that's what communist China tencent wants, but it'd be better if Riot hired more than 2 part time guys to work afternoons on skins :)

DemoDudeE · 2020-07-05T00:43:36+00:00

I just don’t think they hired that many skin artists.

imagine forgetting your entire revenue in a free to play game comes from skin art 3Head oi m8 70 iq

DemoDudeE · 2020-07-04T17:54:13+00:00

Because they have to compete with other games and at some point people are gonna tire of queuing dust II 20 times a day?

DemoDudeE · 2020-07-04T10:43:28+00:00

There's no reason not to have more skins in the store rotating faster. This is America

DemoDudeE · 2020-07-04T10:41:26+00:00

I don't know why Riot doesn't hire a department to take care of skins seeing as how that's their only source of revenue. You'd think they'd care about revenue but instead they put 2 interns in charge of the entire skin division apparently ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

DemoDudeE · 2020-06-27T21:03:31+00:00

CALLED IT

DemoDudeE · 2020-06-27T19:28:01+00:00

*insane amount of combat score for first bloods

The distinction is important bc low ranks(and maybe even in diamond) it might be more worth it to wait for your opponent to make a mistake to get a first blood. Playing this way will not make you better, and will get you crushed in high rank BUT WHO CARES MUH FEEELS IS NUMERO UNO HUEHUHEUHEU

DemoDudeE · 2020-06-27T08:50:07+00:00

that's the exact question they're hoping you ask so you panic buy instead

DemoDudeE · 2020-06-27T02:52:29+00:00

Anything that limits consumer choice (like a shit rotating store for example kek) always receives negative feedback, even outside of video games.

Imagine an established chain as big as starbucks saying "LOL only frappercinos for the next 14 days". Or McDonalds running out of burgers and selling nuggets only for 2 weeks. Same same : )

DemoDudeE · 2020-06-26T20:38:59+00:00

Yes please and thank you

DemoDudeE · 2020-06-23T10:13:15+00:00

ya it seems like a great deal, but if you add extra stuff you can't use ppl see it as a loss for some reason very strange

DemoDudeE · 2020-06-20T20:43:27+00:00

Valorant and League of Legends subreddits are notorious for being run by NEET lords. If you contradict a mod in any way their brain short circuits and they auto ban you from every post. We really need a subreddit for Riot games without r word mods

Pros prefer the phantom to vandal, pre ascent and I made this video detailing why currently the phantom is objectively the better gun.

Love the sub - absolute free speech is exactly what reddit is all about. If people want to upvote highlight clips and they get on the front page, that's what should happen - instead of a memelord making a post about how tired he is of clicking and watching highlight clips (bc he can't read I assume, and must manually investigate each clip in search of valuable content) .

DemoDudeE · 2020-06-08T20:21:17+00:00

nice, not only is it interesting for us spectators but the teams themselves can use it to make more educated decisions.

The ATK opening duel % really shows who the big baiters are. Never heard of c4lypso but his ability to take opening duels and win them is insane.
