- Recon - super clean kill banner sfx, you can literally only hit headshots with this skin. Used by aim goats, Texture, Bang, and not Zellsis. Despite the lack of special vfx, it remains a very popular choice for most phantom users.
- Oni - a classic phantom skin, everything about the kill sfx and vfx is clean. Every single variant looks good to use. Spray transfer is 200% easier with this skin. Plus, you can t-bag the finisher.
- Reaver - one of the only 2.0 skins that were actually good. I don't see it used much in vct but there is that one Mako spray transfer. Past this phantom, there isn't too many good options :(
- Ion - Like the oni, multi-kill transfers is very clean with this skin, however, if you had to choose between this and oni... there is only one right answer.
- Protocol - was going to put champs 2022 but protocol just seems cleaner, the pull out animation is unique, and the spray is very light sounding. Used by my goat Rb. The kill sfx needs more impact/intensity though.
HM's - blastx - similar sfx to recon, but not everyone wants to use a dumbass nerf gun.
Singularity - personally, one of my favorites but I don't see it used too often and the spray feels more random and hard to control.
RES - remember when this was super popular and then it died because ppl got tired of the gimmick?
Glitchpop - for the one derke lover of vlr.
The rest of the 2.0 phantom skins are garbage.
Now your turn pls or degrade my opinions.
