"Wave goodbye ta yer head, wanker!"

(these groups are to see which class is most popular.)

The Sniper is the class for players who love to hang back and pick people off from a distance. Perfect for hiding in hard-to-see areas, the Sniper can pick off slow moving classes like the Heavy with ease. The Sniper is also ideal for eliminating an enemy Medic healing a Heavy or Soldier, giving your team a chance to advance.

As for the Sniper's weapons, the Sniper relies primarily upon his Sniper Rifle which charges in strength the longer the Sniper remains zoomed in. Unfortunately, the Sniper has very little close-combat defense because he only sports a weak, but rapid firing Submachine gun and a Kukri. However, the Sniper can earn three unlockable weapons that allow him to have increased functionality. The Huntsman is his Primary replacement and is an excellent mid-range weapon with a quick draw but requires more skill to use in long range accurately. The Razorback is a passive, one-time use item that saves the sniper from one backstab. His other unlockable, Jarate, allows him to throw a jar of piss at an enemy which makes them susceptible to mini-crits and can also extinguish any fire effects from himself or his allies.
