Am I in the minority? (phantom vs vandal)

For context im a consistent low immortal raze/sova player with an immortal 2 peak. I have a consistent about 14% headshot percentage however about a 25% vandal and a 21% phantom. I dont switch back and forward between the two weapons. My early immortal seasons i only used phantom and now i only use the vandal.

I find that vandal is way more effective on me because i feel that the vandal is easier to spray because the lower fire rate allows me to adjust the spray way better than the phantom. I also feel that recoil reset is much faster on the vandal. I like the vandal more because of the way bang damage and no fall off damage, meaning I will kill someone faster with bodyshots faster on the vandal at every range above 15 meters and since i wall bang a lot the vandal does more damage and the damage wont fall off at range. I find it harder to wallbang someone with a phantom because it can get up to about 7 bullets to kill.

Am I the only one that feels this way? I am asking because i believe the majority of the community associates phantom = spray and vandal = taps.

You spray with the phantom because it shoots faster and you can get more bullets out. Phantom spray is more effective than vandal spray at most distances because of the firerate and spread

Well yea i enjoyed watching other raze/sova mains like sinatraa and old zekken. I know sinatraa basically only uses phantom and zekken uses vandal in ranked but phantom on stage

regardless of the output of bullets vandal kills faster with body shots at every range above 15 meters

The reason it happens is because you are used to Vandal spray not Phantom spray (they are different) so the phantom feels worse to spray since youre not used to it.

You shouldn't be spraying beyond like 20 meters anyways so it shouldn't really matter

Probably true

Yea i probably shouldnt, i also feel when I burst someone with rifles. I can send out two more accurate 3 round burst at the enemy way better with the vandal and phantom. I feel the recoil reset is much better on the vandal. Im not too sure if its true but I think I heard that recoil reset is faster on vandal under a certain amount of bullets while the phantom is faster over a certain amount of bullets.

dont know who that is

I've spent so much time practicing vandal taps that when I switch to a phantom my brain just disconnects if the spray doesn't immediately connect
