[General Winter]

i can undertsand them doing a lot of DMG, but instant death makes the bulk obsolte, any advice im noob who likes tank-ish classes in general

I guess... move a lot? I don't know, I'm a non-noob-but-still-beginner, probably the wrong person to be answering.

Have a Medic behind you with Uber ready. When they are coming up close (I'm assuming the sniper is using a huntsman) Go out and tell the medic to use Ubercharge.

Oh right. I mostly play 1v1 (terrible internet) so I don't know much about medics.

well most snipers and spys are bad so you really have nothing to worry about unless you find somebody really good as sniper or spy then just simply choose another class that can counter them like scout which moves very fast.hope i helped

I'm a heavy main,
crouch and uncrouch, so they cant headshot you while firing at them

thats right but if the sniper is good he can easily headshot you also that doesnt help with spies

if you are serious about getting good at heavy, turn you're sensivity to high, this way if you hear the decloacking sound, you can flick you mouse quickly behind you to kill spies

Don't stand in an open area where they can easily spot you and take you down. Instead, use alternate routes to avoid direct sightline of the Sniper. Then, when you're relaitvely close to him start shooting. Constant flicking from your bullets will make it very hard for him to aim, which will save you a lot of trouble. As for Spies, just turn around a lot. A simple 0,5s look behind every couple of seconds is enough

Not exactly. You can flank around the cart, kill the enemies, let the team secure the area and then push the cart. Also, you can crouch behind tue cart, not letting the Snipers shoot you. However, if you're crouched, spinning up the minigun completely stops your movement, which can be dangerous, so it's good to have a shotgun.

It's pretty hard to reallt suggest a good way of dealing with Sniper and Spies, since they were designed to counter Heavy. You should coordinate with your team for them to engage and/or kill the Sniper, letting you do your thing in peace
