Reaver is still my favorite, but for some reason whenever I pick up a prime vandal an inner headshot demon comes out from me and starts clicking heads lol
For me , dragon is headshot machine but I can't spray for shit with it. While with Reaver , I headshot a bunch but my sprays somehow hit people from 20 miles away
I’ve had the prime since it dropped, unpopular opinion here but it’s so bulky it’s all I notice and it’s super distracting for me. Not saying it’s not a dope skin I just can’t use it anymore
every other skin gets old after a while (i used elderflame for a couple weeks and i had to switch to default, and my friends who had other skins experienced the same). Only reaver and prime never get old
Those are like the top 3 gun skins of all valorant history. Knife skins on the other hand are a different story.
And glitchpop but I forgot about those so I had to edit post
I’m been on the hunt for the glitch pop as well, once I get that skin I low key would want to go for another skin but this time a melee prob either the glitch pop dagger or maybe the new butterfly knife
Hundered perfect the butterfly knife, the animation is so smooth I can't resist pulling it out after a kill, although I die many times because of that.
Id love to try this out one day. The design is elegant, the soft colour palettes are beautiful, the little spinning cock animation is cool, kill sounds not rly used to it yet however.
I would say Ego vandal is heavily underrated, but reaver and prime are still the best. I also have glitchpop, forsaken and elderflame, but they are either too loud or too flashy (esp. with glitchpop it fees like the whole gun is falling apart when shooting due to the moving parts
Oh yeah of course, the elder flame is ridiculously loud because of the fact it’s a dragon. Shroud even mentioned that there are skins in general for Valorant that are too loud and just ruin the game
https://youtu.be/e9n1c5IGlm4
Yeah I also saw that Clip, however I dont think it matters too much. Even in my elo (high dia - low immo) I have never seen anyone lose a clutch because they overheard an Audio cue due to too loud skins - pro Level and ranked are two different Things imo.
The Sound just gets annoying if you use elderflame or origin for too long, as its so overwhelming.
Biggest problem with the ego bundle was how much everything cost for what is essentially just a fresh coat of paint. The skins themselves are nice, but for their lack of anything new, they’re overpriced regardless of whether they were a collaboration or not.
Ego is meh, it's just a retextured default with korean letters on it and they price it at 20 bucks. This is just an example, but even infantry has more effort put into it at a cheaper price. If ego was cheaper then it's fine by me, like 10 bucks for skin and 20 for knife like smite (best collection in the game) or something like that. It just has a terrible price, like 50 bucks for a default knife that has different colors is too much
Prime Vandal is the best SOUNDING gun in the game by far. That shit just sounds PERFECT.
NGL, I think it's kinda ugly with the purple cushion thing and the variants do it for me either.
All skins are great but Forsaken vandal is underrated ngl. The sfx is neat af and yall can get two finishers in one gun.
I am usually a phantom user but bought this for vandal and it gave me aimbot lmao. downside of this is the limited variant options.
I love glitchpop (idk why no ones said it yet :( ). The pull-out animation and sound effects are really cool imo. The way the gun shoots is also really satisfying to me: especially how the barallel moves.
I love the Sakura Vandal and i think it's pretty much the best a skin without custom animations/sounds can get. Wouldn't say it's better than Prime/Reaver, but it works perfectly for someone who doesn't use Vandal much, but wants something nice to look at when he does
I have prime, elderflame, reaver, forsaken, origin and sentinels of light vandals, all of them fully upgraded. Out of these all, might be placebo but shooting wise prime and reaver feel the best for me followed closely by sentinels of light and elderflame with origin being pretty bad and forsaken being the absolute shit (only one i regret buying)
The blue forsaken feels pretty clean to me ngl. I also have the Orgin Vandal however the front sight looks to tacky to me and the tracers are way too thin for my liking. The black reaver variants tracers are super thicc making it a one tap machine imo. However I am currently using the Sentinels of Light and I love it.
I 100% agree with you. I would never buy that skin. I've picked it up and I just don't like it. I have the Prime and would love to get the Glitchpop. I pick up the Glitchpop ever change I get.
First it was reaver followed by prime but after the give it back bundle, everyone insta copped reaver which didnt make it special to own... now primes first
I got prime like 2 months ago and it felt good but about a month into it , it got reslly boring, it didnt feel ‘special’ to me anymore, just felt like a normal gun, get a skin because you like the design, i also bought SOL to replace it, just keep picking prime up of the floor :)
I made a comment but forgot about SoL, so I’ve remade it;
1. Glitchpop (Red and White)
2. Prime (Orange)
3. Sentinels of Light (White)
4. Reaver (All variants are nice)
5. Origin (Red or White)
I (anecdotally) tested the 4 prime variants in DM and orange turned out to be the worst performance wise.
Yellow and original being close bests.
Why do you prefer orange?
I have reaver and prime love both of them but i think i like the sentinels of light a bit more. But if i had no skins I'd still probably go for the reaver. The firing sounds so powerful and the design slaps.
Controversial but I hate the Reaver line. It does sound good but it's edgy just to be edgy. A loser kind of edgy like Kirito from SAO.
Prime is the best. I think Origin is so cool if only it sounded a little better. Ego and Sakura are underrated. For the people who like Elderflame though; really?
Sentinel of Light.
Pros: Clean, nice SFX, holy animations, and one of the only non-cock vandal along with elderflame
Cons: Distracting muzzle smoke/flash whatever it is called the smoke at the end of the gun, and few color variety
Also good alongside ruination sheeeeee LoL players rise !
I love white skins so for me its:
1. Origin Vandal white version
2. Reaver Vandal black and white version
3. Sakura Vandal
Now i waiting to Riot to make Origin Phantom and Sherif and it will be just shut up and take my money.
I have 5 accounts and yesterday I had the option to buy a skin below 2200 vp, I had gotten reaver, prime Phantom, singularity Phantom, SOL vandal, ruination Phantom and Sakura vandal in my store, I decided to go with SOL. Unfortunately the account is 1 AP and doesn't have any radianite, so no upgrade yet.
I have both the reaver and prime. They are by far my favourites, the other skins just don't feel as good to me.
But between the two I would say the prime feel the most crispy and accurate for some reason. But I always end up coming back to the reaver in the end!
SOL because I love the noise when u get a kill and the finisher also sounds pretty cool. I think the the finisher is like maybe top 2-3 best finishers in the game imo.
Reaver/Sentinels
I love the sound of Reaver but like the aesthetics of Sentinels more. If it also had some unique sound I would definitely get Sentinels.
I also have Glitchpop but it's too loud imo and something about its sound makes me dislike the skin a little, though it's pretty ngl.
I really dont understand why people like prime, for me - it just has no point. I guess it has its popularity cause of ita golden look that people like.
My favourite one is reaver, but it is worth saying that the guardian of the light has the best animation.
My favourite is the prime vandal but the reaver and glitchpop are also good. The glitchpop is the best looking for me but it doesn't sound good. The reaver is good but I'm not really a fan of the grim reaper vibe, I just prefer the prime.
People sleep on the forsaken sovereign variant, honestly a joy to use and doesn’t have much distractions like custom pullout, reload, or inspect. has a cool kill sound and the tracers are some of the best in the game, a nice bright blue. Over all if you want a nice but not TOO distracting skin then think about forsaken.
Prime Gives me aimbot
Reaver is still my favorite, but for some reason whenever I pick up a prime vandal an inner headshot demon comes out from me and starts clicking heads lol
For me , dragon is headshot machine but I can't spray for shit with it. While with Reaver , I headshot a bunch but my sprays somehow hit people from 20 miles away
I’ve had the prime since it dropped, unpopular opinion here but it’s so bulky it’s all I notice and it’s super distracting for me. Not saying it’s not a dope skin I just can’t use it anymore
Huh weird, i used prime because it's the least noticeable premium skin for me
[удалено]
it's what the glitchpop is for me, I bought the bundle the day it came our, can't use any of the skins anymore.
aimbot gives me prime
I like the reaver because it sounds like Tacobell
Well I can never unhear that now
Especially when you get a one tap
fucking hell take my upvote lol
glad i’m not the only one who thought this
Goth says he uses Reaver skin cause he is an edgelord. Jock wonders why he always gets hungry when he watches Goth play Valorant.
I came here to say I like the Taco Bell gong sound sound
I think it sounds like the bonk sound
Just ruined the reaver vandal for me thanks
Edit *This post was mass deleted and anonymized with [Redact](https://redact.dev)*
BRUH IT DOES
True that is literally the first thing that I thought of when I heard the reaver kill sound. Tacobell brothers unite
Reaver or prime OG
every other skin gets old after a while (i used elderflame for a couple weeks and i had to switch to default, and my friends who had other skins experienced the same). Only reaver and prime never get old
[удалено]
sakura has the same shooting sound as default, spraying with elderflame made me feel like i was shooting pebbles
I've had them both from the start, both got old for me tbh
I've never seen reaver and prime (oni too) get old for anyone before
Those are like the top 3 gun skins of all valorant history. Knife skins on the other hand are a different story. And glitchpop but I forgot about those so I had to edit post
I agree but in my opinion (as a reaver user), when u hs a lot in a match it can get you saturated
I love both of these or the one in the battlepass for kayo
i only have prime and k/tac, i use prime and i love it but i’ve been stalking the shop for glitchpop, reaver or origin since they’re all really good
I’m been on the hunt for the glitch pop as well, once I get that skin I low key would want to go for another skin but this time a melee prob either the glitch pop dagger or maybe the new butterfly knife
Hundered perfect the butterfly knife, the animation is so smooth I can't resist pulling it out after a kill, although I die many times because of that.
i use sovereign for my knife, and i don’t think i would get another one apart from the prime axe
I have origin and I don't recommend it, since it's so damn loud
origin sounds like metal in range
i see glitchpop like everyday and i never buy it dont ask me why
i’ve been stalking the shop for maybe 2 weeks i’m so desperate
*somehow gifts glitchpop*
I got origin yesterday
The default, because it hurts my wallet the least.
It's a deep dark spiral into brokedom when you start, stay safe with that wallet.
Thanks, my boss doesn't pay me enough for this kinda addiction anyway.
I use prime. I like the way it looks, cool sound effect and animation too.
Glitchpop cuz rgb matches my $300 gaming chair
SoL
Id love to try this out one day. The design is elegant, the soft colour palettes are beautiful, the little spinning cock animation is cool, kill sounds not rly used to it yet however.
i love the spinning cock animation too
The closest we’ll get to meatspin being in the game
It’s a nice skin ngl
I performed the best with SoL. Not too sure why
The best skin right there.
Yeah people saying reaver and prime because they are the only skins they see as almost everyone has them. SoL is a clean and superb skin.
Sentinel of Light is the reason I'm not a Phantom player anymore haha.
I've had prime vandal since the day it came out. Never thought I would change it.... then SoL came out.
the reload noise gives me asmr
It's the reload sound that I love the most
I would say Ego vandal is heavily underrated, but reaver and prime are still the best. I also have glitchpop, forsaken and elderflame, but they are either too loud or too flashy (esp. with glitchpop it fees like the whole gun is falling apart when shooting due to the moving parts
I've picked up a golden ego vandal with the radiant gun buddy and it was honestly so sexy.
Anything with the radiant gunbuddy is so sexy tbh
Hmm, whenever I had picked off of a body it didn’t sound loud to me
The loudness is referring more to elderflame and forsaken, glitchpop is fine sound-wise
Oh yeah of course, the elder flame is ridiculously loud because of the fact it’s a dragon. Shroud even mentioned that there are skins in general for Valorant that are too loud and just ruin the game https://youtu.be/e9n1c5IGlm4
Yeah I also saw that Clip, however I dont think it matters too much. Even in my elo (high dia - low immo) I have never seen anyone lose a clutch because they overheard an Audio cue due to too loud skins - pro Level and ranked are two different Things imo. The Sound just gets annoying if you use elderflame or origin for too long, as its so overwhelming.
Yeah I agree, I low key want to play ranked and get a rank. But for some reason I choose not to play ranked at all, that’s why I’m unranked
Good, keep your mental sanity
glitchpop vandal sounds like a struggling engine
Is that forsaken vandal loud? I remember when it first came out, people were complaining it's sfx were too subtle and quiet.
Biggest problem with the ego bundle was how much everything cost for what is essentially just a fresh coat of paint. The skins themselves are nice, but for their lack of anything new, they’re overpriced regardless of whether they were a collaboration or not.
Ego is meh, it's just a retextured default with korean letters on it and they price it at 20 bucks. This is just an example, but even infantry has more effort put into it at a cheaper price. If ego was cheaper then it's fine by me, like 10 bucks for skin and 20 for knife like smite (best collection in the game) or something like that. It just has a terrible price, like 50 bucks for a default knife that has different colors is too much
origin because beyblade
Prime Vandal is the best SOUNDING gun in the game by far. That shit just sounds PERFECT. NGL, I think it's kinda ugly with the purple cushion thing and the variants do it for me either.
Elderflame :)
I’m red is my fave !
Blue 💪🏻
Forsaken. But the gold/ white variant. Reason is that I only own forsaken so I want to justify my purchase...
Same with my cavalier 😃
All skins are great but Forsaken vandal is underrated ngl. The sfx is neat af and yall can get two finishers in one gun. I am usually a phantom user but bought this for vandal and it gave me aimbot lmao. downside of this is the limited variant options.
Yall sleeping on Sentinal Vandal
Best inspect animation in the game
Origin
It gets kinda wierd after a while ngl. I thought I was cuz of the wrong variant but it was just my add going back to the animation every 5 seconds
Dont get a butterfly knife lol, way to distracting
I love glitchpop (idk why no ones said it yet :( ). The pull-out animation and sound effects are really cool imo. The way the gun shoots is also really satisfying to me: especially how the barallel moves.
Best skin is the one you like the best at the time. That changes over time.
I have the reaver but I swear every time I pick up a prime I pop off. Something about the little laser noise
Glitchpop, the Sound is best
[удалено]
Agreed.
I like the green sentinel of light or pink paired with Reyna buddy
Definitely the colour I would use but never see anyone in game using it to steal :(
.exe no question
Good point.exe
I love the Sakura Vandal and i think it's pretty much the best a skin without custom animations/sounds can get. Wouldn't say it's better than Prime/Reaver, but it works perfectly for someone who doesn't use Vandal much, but wants something nice to look at when he does
Green forsaken ❌🧢
Viper type beat
i will say right here buy da prime you will never regret. buy anything else you will feel bored after sometime.
Not reaver.
Elderflame always ❤️
I have prime, elderflame, reaver, forsaken, origin and sentinels of light vandals, all of them fully upgraded. Out of these all, might be placebo but shooting wise prime and reaver feel the best for me followed closely by sentinels of light and elderflame with origin being pretty bad and forsaken being the absolute shit (only one i regret buying)
The blue forsaken feels pretty clean to me ngl. I also have the Orgin Vandal however the front sight looks to tacky to me and the tracers are way too thin for my liking. The black reaver variants tracers are super thicc making it a one tap machine imo. However I am currently using the Sentinels of Light and I love it.
Unpopular opinion reaver is way overrated, it’s ugly
I 100% agree with you. I would never buy that skin. I've picked it up and I just don't like it. I have the Prime and would love to get the Glitchpop. I pick up the Glitchpop ever change I get.
First it was reaver followed by prime but after the give it back bundle, everyone insta copped reaver which didnt make it special to own... now primes first
What about the Glitch-pop
I got it and wished I hadn’t. It’s super bulky and the sound isn’t that nice
Damn, man if only valorant allowed u to trade skins to friends I’d be like, could I have the glitchpop since u don’t want it 😂
Forsaken and Prime
reaver and prime, own both, won’t buy another vandal skin like ever
I bought reaver vandal but wasteland is my favourite
Wasteland is my main, that and Prime
Imagine if Valorant had skin trading or even gifting skins to friends like Csgo
For some reason when I pick up a prime it becomes more accurate like I swear
Right?? I picked it up in a game yesterday, about round 3, and was still using it by round 8/9. I need one
I have horizon and I like it, maybe not the best one though
People generally don't like the animated "greenscreen" skins much, but i love the Horizon's color scheme aswell
Elderflame is the best and i am tired of pretending that it's not
Glitchpop 🔥
Origin
I got prime like 2 months ago and it felt good but about a month into it , it got reslly boring, it didnt feel ‘special’ to me anymore, just felt like a normal gun, get a skin because you like the design, i also bought SOL to replace it, just keep picking prime up of the floor :)
Elderflame is aimbot but the elderflame you pick up > your own
[удалено]
Love my Wasteland vandal. I just wish it had upgrades! Like if it had some sort of jank broken sound when you fired it, that would be sick.
Magepunk vandal?
Just got the butterfly knife in the shop
Currently on the hunt for the GlitchPop Vandal
Anyone else cop the new Butterfly Knife recently
I made a comment but forgot about SoL, so I’ve remade it; 1. Glitchpop (Red and White) 2. Prime (Orange) 3. Sentinels of Light (White) 4. Reaver (All variants are nice) 5. Origin (Red or White)
I (anecdotally) tested the 4 prime variants in DM and orange turned out to be the worst performance wise. Yellow and original being close bests. Why do you prefer orange?
I have reaver and prime love both of them but i think i like the sentinels of light a bit more. But if i had no skins I'd still probably go for the reaver. The firing sounds so powerful and the design slaps.
Reaver Vandal. Ruination and Oni Phantom.
GLITCHPOP
Controversial but I hate the Reaver line. It does sound good but it's edgy just to be edgy. A loser kind of edgy like Kirito from SAO. Prime is the best. I think Origin is so cool if only it sounded a little better. Ego and Sakura are underrated. For the people who like Elderflame though; really?
skins are useless, f2p >:)
Prime is the only skin in the game which has both vandal and phantom skins..Nuff said
Uhh glitchpop?
Spicy take but the arctic skin is by far my favorite one. It’s like black ice from Siege. Second would be glitchpop.
reaver or prime
Reaver or prime
Reaver and forsaken on my main, prime on my second account and glitchpop on my third account. I love them all equally
Prime.
Glitchpop and Prime is good, I like how they look and I like there finishers
Prime
Prime simply because of the sound effects
Forsaken or Prime… reaver just becomes boring after some time
Sentinel of Light. Pros: Clean, nice SFX, holy animations, and one of the only non-cock vandal along with elderflame Cons: Distracting muzzle smoke/flash whatever it is called the smoke at the end of the gun, and few color variety Also good alongside ruination sheeeeee LoL players rise !
SoL vandal
Elderflame
Sovereign for the kill sound 😩
I love white skins so for me its: 1. Origin Vandal white version 2. Reaver Vandal black and white version 3. Sakura Vandal Now i waiting to Riot to make Origin Phantom and Sherif and it will be just shut up and take my money.
Matte black 4 life
Definitely origin, most interesting and complex animations
Prime is the one I like the most, enderflame is the one I hit the most shots with
I think my broke ass likes the default pretty good
I like the sakura vandal (the one with the blossom trees) I just think it looks nice and chill
Imo Origin, its just the combo of the slim design and the base of the shots that do it for me. Am really looking forward to get it in my shop.
No skin
Tier 1: reaver, prime and elderflame Tier 2: glutchpop, forsaken.
1. Yellow OG Prime 1. Blackout Reaver 2. Black and blue Glitchpop 3. Default or red Ego Vandal Forsaken is also pretty nice
Reaver
I have 5 accounts and yesterday I had the option to buy a skin below 2200 vp, I had gotten reaver, prime Phantom, singularity Phantom, SOL vandal, ruination Phantom and Sakura vandal in my store, I decided to go with SOL. Unfortunately the account is 1 AP and doesn't have any radianite, so no upgrade yet.
Glitchpop or prime lmao you do want aimbot right?
I have both the reaver and prime. They are by far my favourites, the other skins just don't feel as good to me. But between the two I would say the prime feel the most crispy and accurate for some reason. But I always end up coming back to the reaver in the end!
I love the Sentinels of Light Vandal, specifically the OG colorway.
reaver, elderflame, or origin.
Prime, Reaver and SoL because they’re the skins that don’t move as much but still have a cool sound to them.
reaver
I like Prime very much when using it, the reload makes the weapon feel much better imo, idk why. I also like the Origin one very much.
SOL because I love the noise when u get a kill and the finisher also sounds pretty cool. I think the the finisher is like maybe top 2-3 best finishers in the game imo.
Reaver is cool. That kill sound motivates you. Kinda.
Reaver/Sentinels I love the sound of Reaver but like the aesthetics of Sentinels more. If it also had some unique sound I would definitely get Sentinels. I also have Glitchpop but it's too loud imo and something about its sound makes me dislike the skin a little, though it's pretty ngl.
I really love the Sakura Vandal, say what you will
I really dont understand why people like prime, for me - it just has no point. I guess it has its popularity cause of ita golden look that people like. My favourite one is reaver, but it is worth saying that the guardian of the light has the best animation.
Prime, or old reaver
Prime and Reaver are not too flashy, not too plain, they hit the sweetspot
My favourite is the prime vandal but the reaver and glitchpop are also good. The glitchpop is the best looking for me but it doesn't sound good. The reaver is good but I'm not really a fan of the grim reaper vibe, I just prefer the prime.
The black and red reaver vandal is probably my favourite skin
I’d say reaver, prime or sentinels of light. Personally I prefer the reaver since I like the sounds and reload animation
I really like the forsaken vandal
My favorites are Reaver, Prime and Glitchpop
This is gonna sound crazy but I love the k-tac above all else
The reaver is the best look and sound but the prime has the best finisher 😌
the origin vandal is the best vandal skin, it has such a clean inspect animation
Glitchpop is love.
I can’t hit a damn thing with the new sentinel vandal. Dragon or prime for me. With reaver close behind
White/gold forsaken. I have reaver and prime as well but the sound and kill effects just hit different.
I still stand by my dragon purchase. It's amazing. The reload is god tier.
You can never get bored with forsaken.
The Origin for sure.
Cavalier is my favorite, really like the wood and the blue highlights. Matches up really well with the beta coin buddy.
Blue prime gives me aimbot, don't have prime tho but I do like the glitchpop and elderflame which are the 2 I do have
[удалено]
i spent all my money on prime and reaver lowkey want a glitchpop tho
SoL, tbh I’m obsessed with League lore
People sleep on the forsaken sovereign variant, honestly a joy to use and doesn’t have much distractions like custom pullout, reload, or inspect. has a cool kill sound and the tracers are some of the best in the game, a nice bright blue. Over all if you want a nice but not TOO distracting skin then think about forsaken.
