Competitive Overview

Vulcan 1 and 2 see no competitive play as Vulcan 3 is strictly better.

Vulcan 3 sees very limited competitive play as it tends to deal low damage and is difficult to confirm. Using Beast Out to add +30 damage is an option but it would rely on the opponent being uninstalled for the damage to land.

Super Vulcan is a pretty strong chip. While on it's own it deals 200 damage and is difficult to land, it becomes a very powerful option in Beast Out if combined with a Chip Icon 6 Standard 192.png WhiCapsl and/or an Chip Icon 6 Standard 197.png Atk+30.

Landing Chip Icon 6 Standard 193.png Uninstll is another way to confirm Super Vulcan as it removes the SuprArmr Navi Cust part.

Counterplay

Super Vulcan can be difficult to land against an opponent moving up and down. The attack can clip the opponent causing one hit to land but with the remaining hits missing. The enemy can dodge more reliably if they have an Chip Icon 6 Standard 189.png AntiDmg up and they hold a direction upon landing.

Defensive chips such as Chip Icon 6 Standard 184.png LifeAur can potentially deny the full combo. Tomahawk Cross is another threat as the Cross has Status Guard which can stop the paralysis effect of Chip Icon 6 Standard 192.png WhiCapsl.
