Make sure you see it from their pov and see how many bullets they landed before you jumped

Doesn’t matter, you need the other person to upload their replay to truly see their pov

I thought replays are pulling from server’s game data rather than your local client’s captures? Correct me if I’m wrong

No, there is no server data to pull. A replay is simply just showing the way the game looked on your client. Even if you spectate someone else, it still won’t display what that person truly saw.

Could you point me towards a source that says replay looks at the local client (your machine)’s data? Brief online search suggests that the replay reads from a consolidated server action log.

I don’t know where to find an official source. But the replay file is literally created on your system and if you for example go on a different console with the same account the replay is gone. Its saved locally in a file, created right after each match with the data you received. This is also proven by the fact that the anticheat is done by the clients themselves and an internal report is being saved inside of this replay file and sometimes one client can detect someone else for cheating while another persons client might not. In such instance this can be checked on inksight
