BUT he is very good mid game carry, at levels 11-17 he can usually gank any non-tank hero 1 on 1, even without a big item or xp advantage
b) Don't spam shrapnel on creeps, you can use it at early game to slow down enemies that chase you, or that try to escape you. 1st level of shrapnel slows down enemies in decent area by 15%, which is absolutly huge, if they don't have much much higher than yours movement speed. So I'd recommend getting 1 point early on.
c) Hand of Midas is not necessary at all, if you're good, you can carry your team to victory in under 30 minutes, by that time Hand of Midas WILL NOT benefit you, so you should rush MoM instead, get it at minute 6-8 and then go Sange and Yasha, which makes escaping from enemies much easier, while it makes much harder for enemies to escape from you.
e) MKB is a good call, but by the time you get to building one, enemies usually get enough farm to burst you down, before you can kill them, so I'd recommend building some defencive item like butterfly or shadow blade (which gives even more ms)
Ignore this if you 5-man a lot and have some tanks, then you should build max dps.
P.S. Sniper is my favourite hero, and while I agree with some of the guide, I do think that you underutilise sniper's strengths (mid game potential) and underestimate your opponents(late-game initiation and burst can end a sniper in under a second)
