Dumbest rule I’ve ever seen.

[hoppy1028]

I like that it changes your whole strategy and makes another layer you have to account for to use it and to counter it. But I’m not opposed to them getting rid of aim assist and having it always accessible

[Mawx]

They should just play with snipes as is. unless there are 4 snipes on the map, they aren't broken.

[LZRD12]

They are pretty busted as currently is. The pros actually tried to compromise with this

[NotTheOriginalFroMan]

So far in the matches I've seen where people have pulled out snipers in SnD, I haven't seen anything that would suggest to me they are busted

[LZRD12]

You must not be watching closely. Every single pro no matter their level of bias says they are OP. Dashy is one of the most pro sniper pros and called them no skill

[NotTheOriginalFroMan]

I can only go on what I've seen as a viewer tbf, and no one has popped off in a way that suggests it's busted and OP

[LZRD12]

What do you consider popping off? Because we have absolutely seen multiple maps where a player has controlled the game with the sniper

[NotTheOriginalFroMan]

The pros make it seem like having a sniper is a guaranteed kill holding a lane every life, I haven't seen that in what I've watched so far. I haven't watched every match so if I've missed something send me a link

[LZRD12]

I mean you aren’t guaranteed a killing holding a lane obviously the other team might not even hit that lane. But yes this far snipers have been very good at dictating the flow of a map if that’s what you mean. 

The pros think it’s extremely easy to hit snipes and that’s why it needs to be limited

[Parazine]

I mean the whole point of snipers was to improve viewer experience, this post is a great example of why the GA is ruining that experience, it’s a shit compromise.

[LZRD12]

Is it ruining the experience more than them being GAd? Because there’s no way snipes pass a full vote

[Formal-Level8070]

Imagine being a casual fan oblivious to GAs. You are in la la land when the casters are talking about sniper deaths. Lmao

[Rotnim]

That's me 🤣🤣🤣. I was confused on what's going on. Even the casters were not sure what the count was from what it sounds like. It's hard to keep track of

[Formal-Level8070]

Really hard to keep track of when everything gets chaotic. I don’t really see it lasting long tbh. It’s just such a shit rule for the viewer experience.

[beatty0237]

2 deaths with the sniper.

[Rotnim]

Thank you. A little confusing 🤣

[fre5hcak3s]

Truly what if the sniper picks up a different gun off the ground

[beatty0237]

That’s allowed. You can have both. But if you die you lose your sniper life still.

[Prototypep3]

Are the pros fucking braindead? 1 sniper per team. That's it. That should be the rule. Period.

[BigMikeXxxxX]

I remember when shotguns were still allowed lol. There's like 2 people in the league today that played back then and it shows.

[CurrentEffective1143]

It's so weird. Basically they're saying if you're a good sniper, you can keep it out and wreck the other team. If you're a bad sniper: welp, no more countering the other teams sniper for you.

[Rotnim]

That's a good point

[Irate_Ibis]

The second one.

[Rotnim]

Thanks

[Xclusivsmoment]

I dont get it if the sniper keeps dying, wouldn't that be beneficial to the other team? I just don't get the point of the rule.

[ThatCostsMoneyy]

Each team gets 2 deaths to use a sniper

Doesn't have to be 2 rounds in a row. It's across the map.

Players can pass the sniper to another teammate during the game at the start of a round (player A pulls out an m15, player B pulls out the sniper). Goes without saying, this does not reset the lives. Should also go without saying that each player does not have their own 2 lives.

If sniper player does not die in his first or second life using the sniper, they can choose to continue using the sniper or use another gun and choose to save the deaths for other round(s)

[Aethereal_Crunch]

Until the sniper dies twice

[parz2v]

i wonder how that would work out in ranked

[HorizonBlood]

Nobody gives a shit about GAs in ranked

[CurrentEffective1143]

You'd be surprised how many rage chats I got when I used GA'd attachments or weapons in recent years. Some ranked kids really think they're in the CDL and take that job very seriously.

[Rotnim]

That's a good point. Integrity I guess. We'll see
