I loved when phantoms try to pretend to be dead in front of my face. Like you really think that i will forget about your existence the moment you use that ability
A fun thing about fantome is that smoke and mirrors doesnt cancel an active repair kit, so there are times i was able to pull off a covert heal up while i was also playing dead.
if you face a fantome and you don't get the kill sign, always do a follow up shot to make sure he is dead. if he takes dmg then he isn't dead obv. smoke and mirrors only works on new players. i don't have any ideas how it should work in future when all players aware of it
You don't know if your teammate killed him. Same as decoy. You have to waste your shot. This is especially useful in 2v2 or larger battles. It also works like smoke. You can be ambushed or capture a point by hiding your marker.
I think he has some nice standalone with his missiles. But i think he got nerfed hard on the dmg from beginning, for me he is one of the lower performing agents. The only thing i figured about fighting fantoms is, that their crit zones are very small areas though.
You don't want to aim first person in close combat with Fantôme. Aim in front, shoot and guide the missile by looking at its flightpath instead of using the aiming reticle. I got it to 10 and got rid of all the non-damage missile-enhancing upgrades. It got some weird behavior when launching them and unless you are fighting 200m+ all the time you don't need it. You can have some fun with the slow-speed missiles. At long range you wait till they fire and retreat, launch the missile and when they peek again it hits them in the face and you are back in cover before they can shoot back. The same technique works when you are chased around corners. The worst thing at mid to long-range is your teammates though. They tend to drive in front of you after you launch your missile and it goes wherever the game wants it to. I would like the ability to toggle them to dumb fire missiles but they might have an Agent with this mechanic (or only dumb fire missiles), like the Sheridan we can see in the selection ingame.
I tried to hide behind containers, folds of terrain and curbs, but the camera was not high enough to control the rocket comfortably. The easiest option is close combat.

Nice, will try and remember that
didn't know the Fantome had armor upgrades, that plus some of the silence and missile upgrades could make it an interesting brawler
