FLATLINE vs R-301 in Apex Legends

Download LEAP for FREE between 27-30th April HERE! - www.inflcr.co/...
Which is the best weapon in Apex Legends - the R-301 or the Flatline? Today I'm testing the best ARs in Apex with The Gaming Merchant in a race to see who can deal the most damage (one of us drops 4000 damage!) and crown the best AR in Apex... or is it? Comment which weapons I should test next and if you found the video funny, I'd love to do more of these challenges in Season 17!

[@freaktoefilms4512]

Longbow vs. Sentinel would be amazing

[@The_Angel_who_crys]

I think Both of the weapons are good in their own respectful Waze

[@argonthe_polygon]

P2020 vs Mozambique

[@myshortstopmotionvideos7887]

Do the r301 with the alternator

[@J2_hammy]

In ranking legends series can you rank mad Maggie next❤

[@Donie30]

Whenever your next load out video comes out, I suggest Rampage and Mastiff it sounds weird but goes hard. Just be sure to have thermites

[@ferdithetank7535]

Replace Mastiff with any other shotgun and we're cooking. Not even joking right now, since it came out of care package it has been the most inconsistent shotgun, Mozam is unironically better.

[@n0t_zat0ichi29]

​@@ferdithetank7535 delusional 💀

[@erikgonzales3178]

Running the flatline with a 1x red dot for close range and the R301 with a 2x bruiser for longer range is the perfect loadout

[@efafe4972]

idk man 301 2x andn car smg 1x red dot is kinda amazing

[@theburakshowreactions]

I dont know if people would understand me but I kinda like Flatline in close combats. It hits like a truck. But I’m 100% on 301 for long range fights. I cant hit from long distance with Flatline. But the best combi is easily r-99 & Wingman.

[@efafe4972]

Naaaaaaaah 301 and CAR or car and Pk

[@SemmahJVR]

R99 and mozam

[@hastyhawkeye]

Naw r-301 and Sentinel

[@emmettbunch]

weirdo@@SemmahJVR

[@SemmahJVR]

@@emmettbunch what? I find it a good combo

[@SK1llS3T]

Merch and Ashton a big w collab between two great apex content creators

[@StealthBomber422]

Didn't expect the TGM to be in this one. Love the Videos Btw I think you should try Flatty Mastiff

[@Kyle697]

Ah yes the The Gaming Merchant

[@stanky-_-bird8048]

Please use the L-Star with no armor as a challenge

[@sminooo]

you monster

[@christendavidson3774]

You suck

[@archerwhite5025]

This is pure pain not a challenge 😂😂

[@denodrizzshogun2569]

You are pure evil man

[@philswift-apexenjoyer]

Yeah what the hell? Dude you’re a psycho

[@atomicbrain9401]

cannot get enough of that Lifeline voice. Comedy gold.

[@Habesha-s7u]

I love how my two main guns are on the thumbnail 👍🏾

[@kingCLamB]

The collab i’ve always wanted!!! Love both y’all content creators!!

[@commenterYEA-jw1pg]

they were all running away cuz they saw your gamer tag + 1000000000 kills every 3 seconds 💀

[@huddletv1]

5:56 ultra instinct really kicked in

[@smokiefox5954]

Lets go !! Ashton and merch are a great duo ! You guys absolutely bullied that last team 😂

[@MRFANCY_YT]

Use the L-Star or as i would call the " W-Star" and the the wingman or i would call it the "The Cowboy Pew Pew Gun" Hahhahhahah now let my family go please ashton

[@ferdithetank7535]

Strongly recommend Devotion + Sentinel, my favourite loadout when playing Rampart. Works well on Loba too, since you can get the required attachments easier.

[@babybrentgaming1675]

Gamer dad loadout

[@XIIIOmega]

TGM as the ☀️ had me 😂

[@wowow8925]

This is a question I needed the answer to, so thanks Ashton. Also when is the next loadout video coming? I need you to try R99 + Devotion, best combination in the game

[@Dariusaurs]

Same it's Godly devotion with turbo

[@wowow8925]

@@Dariusaurs I actually love fully charged devotion for some reason

[@Dariusaurs]

Fax it's op

[@alexseisimonetti1382]

tbh devotion aint even close to what it used to be, its dps is frankly terrible unless its at full charge and even with turbo it still has a charge time, just outclassed by the havoc

[@TXboi98]

Yep the devotion rapes the armor shields

[@Astro-vt3bx]

Let's take one moment of silence for that lifeline impersonation for a second 😶

[@KitsuneHimeR]

R-99/volt. Love both the 301 and the flatly. I prefer the 301 a little bit more, but I’m better with the 3x on a flatly. I suck with the 3x on the 301, Evernote though I know it’s suppose to amazing

[@elijnr]

This might sound funny but I can control recoil better on the flatline than the R301

[@Doctor_dragon]

Ashton: Imagine missing every shot. Also Ashton: misses every shot on the next clip😂

[@rockostall1653]

Tbh i go for R-301 when i can. i dont really play high damage so i play easy beams and go for wins for R-301 but you know people like the flatline so yea. Love you Ashton great video like always

[@brawlstarstrickshots1302]

At 3:50 when it said we will be right back and ad come on at the same time. That’s crazy

[@adamlangdon8781]

R301 if you can control the recoil for quite long distances but overall flatline heavy damage takes time between each bullet so more time to move your crosshairs saving you bullets same goes for hip firing you can adjust and not waste many bullets because it shoots slower

[@ShummaYT]

Bro you are the best editor

[@RheanneFerguson]

Why not try the nemesis vs the prowler😂 or what about g7 scout vs hemlock but just in single mode🤷🏾‍♀️ Commented this on a previous video but I’m gonna say it here again😂 Best loadout: r99 and nemesis, r301 and flatline, volt and prowler, r301 and triple take Worst loadout: charge rifle and 30-30, melee and grenades only 😬, single longbow, devotion and mastiff Love the videos Ashton!❤

[@Epicdom14]

Would it be different if Ashton got the flatline?!?!

[@aaronabraham2079]

Next Battle : CAR vs R99

[@Sigmamonkey1512]

I liked when lifeline got kicked for talking about the nemesis

[@craigbeare3439]

you should do bronze to pred next season because there is no ranked split

[@Finless_]

To be honest you don't need an editor, these silly edits is what makes you one of the best apex content creators

[@qwertyg3666]

Right after the brb music the video lagged. I thought it was a feature.... also your long range r3 beam is so impressive for roller.

[@Pluxei]

I mean you shoulda let merch have a go with the 301 aswell for the vid, another game like that where you both pop off. Good vid anyways, the intro was amazing.

[@scruffletrucks]

I just got my first 20 bomb but we should have let the last guy heal so I could get a 4K

[@patrickfalvey5420]

You should do r99 vs car

[@timelestog906]

Both are good they just have diffrent usages were they outshine eachother

[@GTLGamer.Gaming]

I used to not think Flatline was good when I started Apex and always used R-301, but now I like using flatline

[@chelseaanais8018]

Post more please I love your content

[@Know_Mondo]

Please continue this duo 🙏

[@James_Nicol]

Season 17 is here!

[@killerqsthird1001]

This video is so much fun! Do more like this!!!

[@jlc8004]

I was so confused in the first Half of the video until I realized you were switching between you and Merchant’s POVs

[@DakotaofRaptors]

That Pokémon music at the beginning hitting me in the feels

[@yos-alt]

3:50 i got an ad right after that, what a coincidence

[@ZeldricxZoldyck]

Fire rate versus damage that’s kind of what I’m feeling right now

[@Squishy_mellow]

Or R-301 and wingman

[@_ed21]

The age old question ⁉️

[@Christian-pi8dl]

3:02 One letter away from being cancelled

[@grade_c]

You should do longbow vs G7 scout or you will become complicatedly Ashton (ah ha ha ha haaa)

[@treefiddy727]

I prefer the R301 because it's easier to use but according to the weapons challenge thingy I have 300 more kills with Flatline. Flatine - hipfire/close range to medium with 1x holo R301 - everything else with 2x and 3x

[@myshortstopmotionvideos7887]

Plz do the r-301 with the alternator

[@freaktoefilms4512]

Thanks for the vids

[@Squishy_mellow]

Or sentinel and devotion

[@mrmilkshake9824]

Hemlock is my personal favorite. In mid range fights that thing shreads.

[@sarabyers3053]

Simply Ashton is simply the G.O.A.T🔥🔥🔥

[@Squishy_mellow]

Or L-star and flatline plz answer me

[@Squishy_mellow]

Do the R99 and the p2020

[@michealjacksonsstepbrother5711]

How the hell do you crouch strafe on controller? What settings are you on!?

[@ddwalker3744]

Both great guns but my fav is Flatline

[@snippper9013]

Can you please test which guns better car or R99

[@Vergils_Blade]

Flatline and 301 is an insane loadout. Prep for some high damage

[@vazra0933]

Bro i love your videos they are the best and Cheer me on you are a perfect day maker

[@ApexCouncil_00]

Can you rate my loadout? Havoc and mastiff (Its better with turbocharger)

[@f30hank98]

Why does the flatline have sniper attments and 301 has a sniper stock and extended energy mag?

[@tonixweb3237]

The "Hey everyone" caught me off guard

[@TibertSeptim]

Hey man great content, next time you could hide the damage numbers so that we discover them at the end

[@masibulelemnguni6554]

Lifeline voice is the best😂♥️

[@Toxicplaysxdxd]

Is anyone gonna talk about how on the thumbnail the flatline has a 4-10x digi threat 😂

[@opdjole4496]

CAR smg(1x holo) + Spitfire (3x holo)

[@hermanrampersant9389]

Love your videos and memes

[@cjcharles602]

Charge rifle v longbow with special guest... RAGGTAGG

[@wintersea5509]

Ashton, please realize what you are getting into with these kinds of challenges, people are going to abuse this power you are in trusting them; anyways ima abuse this power, can you see if the Car or R-99 is better?

[@Coppah-px3nm]

I love them both so most of the time I will take them

[@kyuu_09]

would’ve been nice if you guys did second game where you swapped guns

[@reedstuckert6010]

My weapon choices would include the CAR and the Peacekeeper or the (Mastiff for a different shotgun)

[@Eclipse27864]

Hey Ashton, can you use my weapon combo in your next video? Its my favourite... R-99 and Mastiff

[@x-penguiny-x]

Day: ? of asking simply ashton to use r99 and wingman

[@ASIAN-HERO-2]

1:05 Waluigi Pinball by TypeHeat

[@sabastianmartyn7627]

Please try out the Nemesis and Peacekeeper

[@tmac4life702]

next time you do a testing best weapon loadout plz do rampage r99

[@Shxrpy__]

Concept for anyone who wants: when using the loba ult you can collect teams banners

[@BagheadDaBoi]

Hear me out vid idea best gun in apex tournament where you and game merchant find out what the best gun in apex really is. So guys do this video but just as a series

[@brandongarcilazo8008]

Liked solely cause of the Pokémon into song absolutely fire

[@Cakeyflames]

I would love to see volt vs r99 or car vs r99

[@KityareachKoy]

Can you do R-99 vs Prowler Burst

[@Pancakess2106]

Anyone gonna mention the perfect ad transition after the we’ll be right back, no, just me?

[@Pepsiisgood]

Triple Take vs G7 👀

[@ALEJANDROGARCIA-no1bm]

Havoc vs Devo or R-301 vs Nemesis

[@khanggamervn4868]

Can you try use R-99 and peacekeeper with no choke please ?

[@SliceofCheeze]

YAYYYYY MERCHANT, MORE COLABS PLEASE

[@liltunchijrjr5145]

Flatline + r99 from long range with flatline you have to single shot but you can spam the single shot with less recoil

[@tobycann6944]

We love you keep up the great work

[@namelessq1996]

C.A.R VS R99 VS Volt smg

[@quackss6384]

Volt is my favourite but it's R99 > volt > car

[@growingoaks]

*Obligatory comment for algorithm to boost this awesome content* This was a fun watch ngl. Maybe spitfire vs rampage next time?

[@zenthartstad6245]

Flat line

[@queru1ous]

Flatline or R-301? Yes. Whatever I find first, honestly. _Even if it’s an R9._

[@suicidalcoffee4399]

I simply would like tgm to bring back the store series......dip dip potato chip

[@wooly_]
