Too many snipers

Can every Elimination and Crimson Doubles match I drop into not have hunters body chaining sniper shots the second your slightest pixel peaks into the opening? Like come on. I barely see people using Auto, Pulse and Scouts anymore. It's just solar crayon eating Guardians zipping across the map and killing you before you can even respond. At least make it so that if you have like a quarter of an overshield up, you can survive it. I don't know, just something to help counter that crap. If you guys have any suggestions on how to hard counter snipers, can you drop so advice. The most I know to do is to use your emotes to peek instead of actually looking.

  • Snipers are the fastest way to take out opponents with the safety of range so when it comes to low number fights such as 3v3 and 2v2, you can really focus on lanes and do that sort of stuff. As scummy as it is. A tip thats worked for me is usually they will be hardscoped, so they arent paying attention to radar. try to keep one person may emoting to check their position while one makes a flank. Once they notice to check the other lane then make a move or play a scout to get flinches. Maybe cast a decoy shield or rift that looks like a defensive peek and make a flank. But usually theres always a way to draw them in to more favorable situations for you. Just because they are posted up on a lane, doesent mean you have to fight that lane right now.

    • Whining about hunters when every other class can do that more effective.
