| The sniper is a long-ranged class with the ability to one-shot any enemy in the game. They are valued for their ability to get key picks without directly engaging the enemy team. In a typical 6v6 format, the sniper is considered an [[offclass]], played only when a situation presents itself, most often when a team is at an uber disadvantage, or holding the last point. The main downfall for teams running a sniper, however, is that during an [[uber fight]] snipers are practically useless, and that they have very low direct combat abilities. Snipers primarily target the enemy [[Demoman]] and [[Medic]], due to the ability to change the direction of a game through key [[picks]].

| As one of the most potentially dangerous classes in the game, the sniper relies heavily on sight lines in a map, and their own team's ability to call the positions of enemies. This combined with the inability to protect itself in direct combat with a [[scout]] or roaming [[soldier]] forces snipers to play defensively, usually staying as far away from a choke point in between pushes as possible, and waiting for the chance to punish enemies who over extend.
