forget you phantos the landmine launcher a single mine takes out your shield and theres no way to get rid of them and they have a stupit burn effect
reminder that the landmine did 0 direct and explosive damage and its burn dealt 1.5 damage per second, making it the lowest DPS weapon in the entire roster. compare that to warhead which did 90 explosive damage and 150 direct. i recorded stats for weapon wins and landmine launcher had 13 tournament wins* ranking it slightly above sniper rifle, the de facto worst weapon in the game
landmine really was the most 'meta of the day' weapon considering how terrible it was but because everyone played the game with an entirely fixed mindset and refused to play against landmines in a strategic way it was considered the best weapon
*in tournaments with less than 4 other landmine users
