Yup, exactly. Those are the precise steps I took. Its important to get the unusual before you start playing sniper - that way you can not only feel cool but also feel guilty when you dont play sniper with your cool loadout so you force yourself to become a sniper main :)

1:18 sniper mains be like: what do you mean the razorback is a stupid item design that severely cripples a classes most important feature? I think its fine the way it is.
Agreed, people are saying they should nerf the damage but that won’t do anything except nerf sniper into the ground as the most useless class. Especially in comp/highlander. Maybe increasing the quickscope time to like, less than half a second but more than just a couple of milliseconds would do something. It wouldn’t really help sniper duels though..
this is a really bad argument because you have to have a good reaction time and a well disciplined aim and focus. seeing a lot of youtubers playing sniper on tf2 and doing good at it really doesn't mean anything because in reality the majority of players can barely play sniper in the first place. the class gets mastered and is then very overpowered at that point but that goes for any class and then you could make the same argument that soldier or scout is too op because of the movement speeds they can pick up and the amount of damage they can do if they hit all their close range shots.
@@glitchr572 What do you mean? no matter how many hours, soldier and scout have limitations so nobody has any problems with them. sniper is still powerfull in the only situation hes suppose to be weak, doesnt matter how much skill you have, the point of a class is be good or weak in different situations
Ok I’m just gonna give my two cents here since I see a lot of people talking about this recently. Everyone always talks about how the best players prove that sniper is overpowered - but its actually the opposite. If you look at the best 6v6 teams right now, none of them run a sniper full-time, even though they have some of the best players in the world - if sniper is as broken as people say he is when used by the best players, why is this the case? Well its because sniper is immobile and has a lot more counterplay than people think; you can coordinate a bombing soldier and a flanking scout simultaneous (so even if the sniper has godly aim and headshots one of them, the other one will kill them straight after), you can wait to push until you have uber negating the sniper any kills and then rushing him etc... The issue is that in casual people don’t communicate or seem to know how to play against sniper at all, but as someone else said this goes for other classes - this isn’t an issue with sniper its an issue that casual games put people with 4 hours against people with 4000 hours. In casual, peoples movement is a lot more predictable, they might not know the common sniper sightlines, they don’t communicate with other players to take out the sniper etc... In other words, sniper is not really overpowered, he is just strong in a casual setting and perhaps is the class that abuses the lack of knowledge/experience of enemy players the most.
I think regardless of how good you are at sniper, it always feels kinda crumby to be DRAGGED out of the game and be forced to play excessively safe and passive just because someone’s decently consistent at sniper
The thing that sets kick and twitch streamers apart is their TOS that practically gives twitch streamers a forced attitude to stay nice or you get booted off a 100k per year salary because you swore 3 times 😭🙏.
i feel like the reason spies whine about the razorback so much is because half of them continue to stab it and stun themselves for absolutely no reason whatsoever (1:18). it's so confusing. entertaining vid though, i always find this stuff entertaining and reminds me to keep my cool and just chill out when i play.
I love how most people don't even bother to put in the effort to improve the movement tech to at least throw off the sniper aim or game sense to avoid sightline, flanking the sniper, they just run in a straight line, stand still and look at the sniper then get headshot and complaining about the class
I have a question, recently I watched lazy purple's video on sniper, there was this part where he claimed that it was better to wait for the enemy to put their heads in their crosshair and that it was kinda bad to ''guess and quickscope'', which is what I do and you seem to do, ofc you seem to have more experience with it but now Im confused, is it really better or is lazy just different, I dont know
Actually, I use "lazypurples technique" like 70% of the time, the only difference is that usually i place the crosshair already very close to their head, so the "waiting until they put their heads on their crosshair" only takes like 0.5 seconds. Essentially, the more practice you get the faster you do this. I only use flicks if either the enemy went in the direction that I didn't expect, or if i meet someone (usually a flanking scout or a spy behind me) thats really close range, in which case i need to do a fast flick and just hope that my muscle memory was good enough to hit the shot.
I've seen many people make statements defending sniper but consider this. Sniper can make a sightlines anywhere even in your spawn so when casual players try to play the game it becomes infuriating. I agree a sniper can be countered but depending on the snipers skill how you counter can become a hassle since it could take 4 or more teammates working in unison just to get past the snipers team and get him, even then in a 6v6 setting you shouldn't have to work with your whole team to take out one class, at best just a spy and another sniper to take care of him, but if the sniper has 3,000 hours or more you bet your ass it won't be easy to counter him at all even with a soldier trying to dive bomb him cause he has teammates(the sniper in question). All in all when you look at it sniper needs a nerf one way or another, but I would just prefer maybe making none charged headshots only do 130 damage instead just so medics don't have to deal with a sniper just camping somewhere and bodyshotting the whole game cause that's just stupid
I feel like if sniper did a little bit less headshot damage he would be more fun to play as. Why hasnt there ever been a sniper that has less sniper crit dmg? It seems like an idea that would take a lot of skill.

From what I've observed in order to become a sniper main. I've concluded that the steps are...
1) Play osu!
2) Get an unusual.
3) Click on heads.
Yup, exactly. Those are the precise steps I took. Its important to get the unusual before you start playing sniper - that way you can not only feel cool but also feel guilty when you dont play sniper with your cool loadout so you force yourself to become a sniper main :)
4) miss
5) equip huntsman

The balance of the sniper is that he is an amazing class at long range, but really shit at close range. It is unbalanced, but not OP though.
