7	[[https://www.youtube.com/user/phantomsavage?blend=1&ob=4 PhantomSavage]] is a Let's Player from the world of Youtube, with a moderate 23K subs as of March 2016. Definitely one of the crazier ones, as brilliantly demonstrated in his ''VideoGame/DeadRising'' LP (his most popular work). He's known for his tendency to [[NoIndoorVoice yell really loudly]] in his videos, as well as for not keeping a schedule. Recently, he started doing fandubs of random series and posting the results on his channel. Occasionally he will take requests.
8
9	He has also started a co-op channel with his friend, [=KZ=] (Website/YouTube name [=GoddammitJoel=]) called [=TheBasterdBrothers=]. He has an infrequently updated website (where he's uploaded longer, better quality versions of some LP's), [[http://phantomunderground.com here.]]

23
24	----
25	!!Tropes included in Phantom's work include:
26
27	* AxCrazy: Loves to act completely psychotic, as seen in his Dead Rising videos.
28	* BerserkButton: The entirety of [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BwqJvI3uMtI this video.]]
29	** [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3S29Lsq4YW0&feature=player_detailpage#t=569s Do not take his fedora.]]
30	** Game mechanics that force you to stop progressing in the middle of a fight, leading to death.
31	*** Otis from the original ''VideoGame/DeadRising'' drove Phantom so thoroughly nuts, he ''rewrote the plot of the sequel'' to have Frank ''[[KilledOffscreen track Otis down and murder him]]''.
32	* ButtMonkey: At least in most Skype calls, see: His Smurf Escapades, His Therapy Session (with WebVideo/DrunkenDan as Dr. Lipshitz), and the 90% of the times he impersonates UsefulNotes/AdolfHitler.
33	* EvenEvilHasStandards: [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=G0kR4p8ED-g This video]] had Phantom playing Super Khold World, a hard romhack made by Khold. His reaction [[BreakTheBadass says it all]].
34	* InstantSoprano: PlayedForLaughs in the Dead Rising LP when Isabella kicks Frank in the dick.
35	--> Frank (voiced by Phantom): Can't talk... testicles crushed.
36	* LargeHam: If the page quote doesn't give it away, nothing will.
37	** For someone who insists he doesn't have much of a vocal range, he sure can put on a lot of different emotive voices in the span of 30 seconds.
38	* RoaringRampageOfRevenge: [[PunctuatedForEmphasis "WHERE! IS! MY! HAAAAAT!"]]
39	* RunningGag: His love of funny headgear in the ''VideoGame/DeadRising'' series.
40	** His pathological hatred of survivors.
41	** In ''Off The Record'', Phantom redubs Frank West's lines himself (but not anyone else). As the game progresses, Phantom goes increasingly off-script, delivering much snark but also making Frank sound like a nut.
42	* ScheduleSlip: [=PhantomSavage=] doesn't have anything even remotely resembling a regular update schedule; videos come when they come. His LP of ''VideoGame/DeadRising'' took '''two full years''' to complete (but was worth it). Other games have not had it ''quite'' so bad – he got through ''Off The Record'' in just over six months.
43	* ScreamsLikeALittleGirl: Given the opportunity, Phantom can really go into this territory pretty easily.
44	* ShoutOut: When he first gets a flamethrower in ''VideoGame/DeadRising2'', we get a segment [[VideoGame/TeamFortress2 where the screen is tinted blue and "Do You Believe In magic" starts playing]] as he roasts some zombies. He also finds a Strange Eyelander (read: ordinary broadsword), and the Team Fortress 2 killfeed appears when one of the redneck psychopaths kills a survivor.
45	** He also calls a homeless guy Chester A. Bum.
46	** His lawyer used to be [[Franchise/AceAttorney Miles Edgeworth, but now it's Von Karma]]
47	* TrademarkFavoriteFood: Snickerdoodles come up a lot in his ''VideoGame/DeadRising'' LP
