1. PING - Ping plays an enormous role in how effective a player is with the current sniper, since the weapon is hit scan and the mechanic is point and click. Lower ping will automatically make you a better sniper, as you will not have to predict the movement of your target as far in advance. This means that snipers who are effective with higher pings would be that much better with lower ping.
In conclusion, if I had to pick some standouts when it came to sniping, I would say Lanthus is definitely the most impressive sniper to me. He consistently plays with 100+ ping, is extremely consistent, and when I cap it's clear that he understands all of what I discussed above. There are others who are impressive as well: Envy, Kryst, Hannibal, BLS, Nept, etc. The main difference is all of them have much lower ping. Just my two cents.
tl;dr - Lanthus is the best.
+1Envy and Lanthus have to be the best snipers I've ever seen. Don't know any other exceptionally good ones that can snipe in 20-150 ping.
Lanthus.
Did I mention Lanthus?
exactly, Nept is the best...obviously everyone only thinks about the ppl that they see in PUGs or ppl they see almost every day on TS, but that doesn't mean the ppl that don't play competitively couldn't beat the crap out of those that do....I could beat lanthus any day, and Nept could crush lanthus any day, anytime, anywhereSeymour thinks all of the players listed are decent snipers (except PWA, he can only hit Seymour when Seymour's typing or AFK), but out of all the snipers I've met, it's probably Nept who's raised my blood pressure the most.

He is actually pretty good, but people notice that too much because all he does is snipe.Ares.

hahah that's really funny cause im sure i've pwned your horrid capping routes a bunch of times, you just didn't know it was "me"I doubt that. All the times I've played against you, you have been terrible. What has changed now? I'm 100% sure nothing.

exactly! I hardly ever play as Dacil anymore!Or you know who I've been. You have no clue that I've been faking 80% of times I've played Legions. Always nice to see that you can trash talk but next time base it on facts so you don't get caught. Have a nice day.
