send this shit to the dumpster

Yea this is mostly my point, its the only class that gets an advantage from not closing the distance. Also @OP if the best teams have realized that playing entirely around your sniper is the optimal way to win, doesn't that tell you that that class is more important and better than all of the other ones?

While I appreciate that you recognize that 2v1ing any class is how you beat them, and I think most newer or low div players still need to learn that, I think not having experience playing against the best snipers in the game doesn't fully inform your view. Spring rolls is correct that the mentality of "just hide and let your spy stab him" is really fucking stupid because all it takes is 1 engineer that hits half their shots to stop the spy.

Teams at the highest level of competition (at least in HL) have great difficulty stopping a good sniper from taking over the game, or they simply can't because the other sniper is having a really good game and killing 4-5 players before anyone can close the distance even if they do everything right on paper. There's no other class that can do this, because there is no other class that benefits from being very far away from the enemy. If you had jay on soldier, and he doesnt miss a single rocket, he will eventually run out of health because he has to be close range to maximize his damage, and other classes will do more damage to him as he is closer. The best snipers usually take over the game, the best spies & engineers & heavies & pyros do not. That's a class issue, not a skill issue.

well in the latter you have to play from a losing position every time but in the former you're stalemating while ahead

hydrogen bomb vs coughing baby

playing against SA snipers in NA HL is a very special type of cancer

banning sniper. going spy isn't the same because he is countered by the complex strategy of Turning Around. if pyro were banned, people would go heavy or engie to have a similar amount of stalling.

Concerning. Looking into this.

then why do you keep posting such unfunny things

why buff candy cane when its already OP if you can dodge explosives

This is the worst, most disorganized 'apology' thread i've seen and i've read actual pedophile apology threads. Why did you even post this when your ban was five years ago

probably a friend of Archaeology
