two headshots > any fan the hammer damage
If you throw a flashbang just above a reinhard shield you can stun him
Two headshots = 70 * 2 * 2 = 280 damage
Fan the Hammer = 270 damage
Fan the Hammer vs Armored Target = 240 damage
use m1 all day every day
he's implying against reindhardt specifically
two fan the hammers 480 against armor which you can finish with a melee
you can get 2 headshots for 280, which by that time reinhardt won't be flashed and will be able to clobber you
i agree that m1 is better than m2 in most cases but for reinhardt, m2 sounds like a good deal
