[TF2] Headshotting Streamers 

the fact he was abt to re-queue xD

also TTV

I was like "what?"

????????? What lmao So everyone playing scout rn is tryharding? Ok.

@@lord6074 not all scouts are tryhards but all tryhards are scouts

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

Professional have standards.

Dont forget ugly ass cosmetics and stupid rifle names

@Duck Go Quacks what is the unusual

while trying to kill a taunting player like his life depends on it

Really though

why wouldn't anyone be salty? sniper is a bullsh1t class to fight against, cuz of his 150 dmg headshots.

@@overlord3481 Hahaha bodyshots go brrrrr.

So what? Someone just loses all the time to be better at something to play bad? It requires skill and time, the 150 headshot is hard to hit.

And extra props to the people who complimented him too. Sometimes I compliment but if they keep on doing it all game I’ll get salty but keep it to myself.

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.

@@euugh8877 yea how balanced. He can one shot you from the far and you can’t do shit unless you get really close in. That’s not fun to deal with

@@euugh8877 uh, no he's still really good up close. instant 150 damage even if you are in his face, and his jarate bushwacka combo does 195 consistently. he is absolutely not shit up close.

@@euugh8877 Not for people that are really good with the smg, smg shreds for anyone that can track and aim.

@@UsoTeaMor unfun to deal with on turbine and maps that are too open, if these streamers were actually dodging well the shots would’ve be harder, plus its a highlight so its only the times it worked out.

If you are talking about the spy at 2:20 he actually didnt have the critical hit indicator on his head. Reason I meleed him there was because he had gone through that exact same path before, so I just predicted it and hoped for the best, and I managed to time it perfectly :)

@@sizzle3409 noice

Honest to god drop shots shouldn’t exist. Need to make it so you unscrope if you get launched

@@twin_towers_destroyer "I hate very difficult high-skill shots that are almost entirely useless to perform!"

sad , tooooo many things in game make spy weak

While playing scout aswell and literally sweating his hairy homeless ass off to kill a taunting player

Your ass jealous​@@yowfx-offline3396

is balanced

He is, its just the player that makes him "unbalanced"

sniper players when someone doesnt want to mash every key on their keyboard at calculated intervals while randomly going in circles so they can be at marginally less risk of instantly getting one shot

I will give you 50 dollars if you would survive a sizzle encounter

@@baglespelledwrong8159 There's exaggerating for humorous purpose, and then there is this. Just don't.

@@tappajaav the only exaggeration was the word calculated

Tf you expect him to do? He also needs to aim you know

Hunstsman is literally even worse. At least sniper rifle takes skill

@@hussar7733 I prefer "funny jank haha" over "so, I'm using an aspect of the game that is completely broken to my favour."

@@severketorskeleton3759 idk this junk isn't so funny when an arrow that visibly missed me headshots me. Hell even if it's a bodyshot 120 is a lot and screwd me over many times

@@hussar7733 it's simply the Ishida family technique smh smh

skill issue

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

@@glitchr572 Take a look at the bot, when removing all human error, they can completely stomp the game

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.

Heavy update out yet?

No

Not yet

any sniper above Main can beat him tbh

what

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.

@@sizzle3409 Ah thank you so much! Keep up the great content btw

have you considered that the sniper has to react and move their aim to a specific part of your body? if you think about things in a void like this everything is overpowered

Why Zesty viewers deserve less. Example:

@@itsasecrettoevery1 The irony in hating a RU-vidr with Jesus in their name 😂

@@itsasecrettoevery1Also, Sniper’s headshot mechanic was detailed in the TF2 developer commentary over 10 years ago. Just because some RU-vidr you cry about said it doesn’t make it any less true.

People seem to forget that the Sniper has 0 pushing abilities, escape or even a proper way to defend himself at all

@@yikes216 exactly

@@yikes216 Jarate + Bushwacka or SMG with good tracking. Also quickscopes

@@desko2041 I said "proper", that didn't include trying to melee someone as Sniper while having an extra 20% damage vulnerability or using a weak secondary while a fucking power class is onto you, or relying on a mechanic that you have a 90 percent chance of failing.

@@yikes216 I would argue quickscopes are a pretty proper way of defending yourself, 150 dmg isn’t anything to joke around

Oh no its you...

@@shaadengaming Shaaden you suck

probably didnt see it

(Assuming you are asking for tips in casual play) One of the best tips that I think a lot of snipers don't do properly is to constantly change position. A lot of snipers stay in the same spot for a long time and whenever they die they go back to that spot. This makes it easy for snipers, spies, bombing soldiers and flanking scouts to kill you. The element of surprise is just as effective on sniper as it is on spy - if you change your position constantly and use uncommon/weird sightlines, you will catch a lot of players walking in a straight line as they dont expect you there. As a general rule, dont stay in the same spot for more than like 30-40 seconds.

@@sizzle3409 When you said the element of surprise works on sniper too yeah that's a really good tip when I play scout and come out of nowhere people don't have the time to react and boom their dead! I will keep this in mind thanks!
