Sniper counter?

[goldstein "ownage"]

Other than saying: Dont feed, my personel counter to sniper is using clockwerks flares from spawn to farm instead of having to get upclose and personal with him at mid. On another note what is snipers MAIN counter other than idle farming....

slark with blink or shadow blade sniper = dead

The counter to Sniper is the same counter to Drow and Viper (if Viper is not mid lane): harass out of lane. In the early game they are extremely squishy, even Viper. Don't let them farm and don't let them get XP. A lot of people are scared to be aggressive against them even early game because they project the late game versions into the hero instead of the circumstances.

Crystal Maiden with a few normal hits + freeze + a couple more hits will send Sniper back to the fountain. Really, just any support can scare Sniper away. The key is that for the first few levels you don't want to over-extend to try and get kills because you yourself are just as squishy. When you hit level 3, the harass on Sniper should keep him at level 2, and someone comes and ganks and you get a kill.

You don't need a specific hero to counter Sniper. You just have to keep him in check early game. This comes more from teamwork than anything else.

try pudge:D

Hes a very slow hero so having your supports ganking him often is a very good way of stopping his "pub domination", but if youre team wont gank or you dont want to ask your team because they are a bunch of ♥♥♥♥♥ then any hero that can close distance really fast and is able to absorb harassment while dishing out a lot of damage (I find QoP, Pudge, and Ta work very well against him)

its not enough cause probably he is not that good in skill to ask for counters and pudge needs skill to be effective

I mean pudge can beat him in mid lane.

guys he cant "try" Pudge...
he has to learn Pudge very good to counter him or Sniper will own him with only a ward

[Shadezzz]

any hero that gets you up close and personal with him. I liked silencer since sniper doesn't have much spell so the Curse of the Silent will drain him. The damage and the mana drain will leave him useless. If he is solo mid, then you have an easy kill.

clockwerks blink

[BipedalBob]

Spirit breaker used to counter sniper until that ultimate nerf. Now, I'd say centaur or slardar(don't pick void because a good sniper will always stay the heck back).
Oh and also tusk does the role pretty well too.

[chaotea]

best counter for sniper is blademail. Stick it on if he ults you.

[Nestcave.]

Any heroes with:
Blink skill, such as: Phantom Assassin, Puck, Anti Mage, Clockwerk;
Heavy tanker using blademail, such as: Centaur, Axe, Undiying;
Early nuker, such as: Silencer, Zeus, Tinker;
Fast chaser and stunner, such as: Spirit Breaker, Slardar;

nyx assasin

[SUPER IDOL DE XIAO RONG]

He is squishy. Pick Pudge and use your Hook/Rot/Dismember combo. This should rape him.

Axe,Legion commander, clockwerk, slark, pudge, Bounty,spirit breaker can **** with him early

[Taweret]

phantom lancer is awesome vs sniper and any illusion hero, dont forget sniper is single target hero.
