by MaxQ
Do you feel like being Rambo? Then you should choose Sniper be your hero. He is all about killing from a great distance with deadly accuracy. Headshots, criticals, you name it Sniper has it all. You just have to adopt the right play style and buy the adeqvate items and your suited for the massacre.
Kardel Sharpeye - The Dwarven Sniper
This hero is suited for damage dealing and killing many and fast. No chit chat they wont even see you coming or shooting but they will feel you in the game for sure when they start falling (apart :P).He is all about agility, so more agility means more damage, more critical hits, and faster attack rate. This is just awesome.
Headshot "The shot deals bonus damage and stuns for a short period of time", well i must this will be your primary spell that you will have to lvl up early in game at lvl 4 it will deal 50 bonus damage, "in 40% of time", and 0.2 second stun. So this way you can easily disarm any opponent you may encounter. And if you have a Sange/Yasha and a Crystalis to aid you in critical and speed ... then you wont have any problem at all. Don't forget this is a passive skill.
Take Aim This is another passive spell which will enhance the range of Kardel`s rifle by 220 range at lvl 4, this way you can keep on shooting them from far back, but they wont be able to touch you lol, the noobs.
Scatter Shot (C) "Fires a ball full of shrapnel into the air, which promptly explodes, showering the target area in explosive pellets, each doing 10-25 physical damage in a 200 area of effect. Deals damage to buildings. Cast range of around 750. 1 second cast time." Well this spell is very useful to if they are many heroes in one place because this deals damage in a huge area. This spell is most useful for farming, i must say. But you can experiment and see which spell works best for you. At lvl 4 there will be 20 Pellets and don't forget these deal piercing damage. The cooldown is ok 12 seconds but mana cost is 120.
Now .....3.....2....1..... tadadada...!
Your Ultimate Assassinate (T) "Take time to aim, and then deal a large amount of damage to the target at a huge range. " at level 3 this deals 655 damage at an astonishing 2500 range, it has 1.5 seconds casting time. Take care because this will need mana, 375 it is, but only 12 seconds cooldown, so you can hunt them down fast.
Try to get items that will give you critical and damage so you only need 1 shot to kill 'em. You should constantly watch the battlefield and buy boots of travel, this way you can teleport fast near any low hp enemy hero and TAKE HIM DOWN. p.s. check back soon.

The sniper as I had experienced it is only second to the drow ranger.
At the end of the game, with all the 30%-40% faster attack rate items with it, the guy shoots like a machine gun, taking down level 25heroes like they were just creeps.
And you can't really run away from it. The stuns prevents you from pretty much doing anything, the sniping outranges you.
is good to have a mkb with him... you gain ministun chance, attackspeed and damage 8)
Butteflies work well with him too, and put him a MOM, works great in early game.
Don't get caught up with scatter shot early. Although this ability is great for farming the large waves that come late game, it is a waste of mana early on. Try this skill order: Max out head shot first, with take aim as your secondary. At six get his ulti of course. After you have 3 points on take aim start to level scatter shot.
With regards to items i like to get chicken and ring of regen right off. Then build treads starting with gloves-->boots-->elvenskin. Here you have a choice, conservative players go for Lothars (a great choice) or more agressive players may go straight for mkb. Either way your next item is hyperstone followed by crit strike. Very nasty combo. Good hunting.
A Deso is much more affective, and if they run a lot, just get a skadi. Lothars is great for pushing, and butter is good coz he has low Hp
For me the best items should be:-
1) Tread
2) Mask of Madness
3) Lothar
4) MKB
5) Manta Style
6) Butterfly
