I hope you enjoy my long essay about the balance of the sniper class!

I'm going to keep it real chief the analysis in this video is really bad. Lot's of things I could say about basically every point but the fact that a highlander player in big 2025 nonironically said "just don't peak the sniper and get your spy to stab him bro" is a little insane. This mentality is how ppl just autolose every koth map.
Also there's something really funny about trying to rebut the idea that sniper has no counters (outside of another sniper) by providing a counterexample that requires two players.

The point of that section is that the counter to sniper is teamwork and positioning. He can only look at one place at a time and so anyone from literally anywhere else can kill him easily. The same example would've worked with scout, soldier, demo, even heavy doesn't matter. The problem with all of those however, is that they can't steal his identity and his tax return... Making it far less profitable to do so.
