[Thor]

I miss the days when I could snipe like that.

 

[Shiznoe]

I miss the days where I could never ever snipe like that....

 

[curly.q13]

I wish!

 

[D3RP MCHERP]

I don't think that counts since you're on 2fort...

 

[jhnsn]

I used to be able to snipe, but then I took a school to my practice, and fell out of it

 

[Ledzo]

pretty nice quickshots!

 

[Nix]

Sniper takedowns were nice.

But what really impressed me was the medic. Nice job.

[Raynor]

That's the point. Hollowsoul, nik, and Snake are my buddies

Lesson: the movement comes as your about to snipe the person, not throughout. Dont try following the person, not as effective.

 

[JTM]

first two kills were alright, but the medic kill was quite nice considering he was already falling when you took the shot, rather than just stepping off the ledge. yours was the tougher shot to make, so really well done on that.

quality sniping in general takes a lot of practice- more practice than any of the other classes, really- because it's all muscle memory. and if you get away from it like i have, it can be just as hard to get back into as it was when you first started out. so KEEP WITH IT!


edit: also, what crash said ^^^

Nik did a sniper tutorial not too long ago (of course he decided NOT to take up my suggestion that he record it). His advice was to learn to predict where a player is going to move and place your crosshair there- basically, let the enemy run into your shot. this can be rather tricky to learn, but once you get the hang of it it's an extremely useful tool.

Anyways thanks for the advice I'm going to start working a little on that.

lol how did I get 4th?

What does count though is playing in a competitive scene (not tf2lobby) and still getting shots like that constantly.

Seriously though, those were some nice shots. I'm #111 on the HS leaderboard, but that will increase.
