How do you professionals counter head glitching snipers?
Since the rise of snipers. And now that everyone uses them.
Tell me mlg professionals how do I counter head glitching snipers?
For those of you who don't know. Head glitching is when a sniper pokes his head out from behind cover, however, only the top most part of the snipers head is visible making it nigh impossible to damage him back.
He however has full view of you.
It also covers the sniper scopes reflection so you can't see them hardscoping.
I'm not the best player out there but I'm decent.
So I'm just looking for some tips

13 RepliesWhat BUNGIE should do is do what battlefield did. Make the gun fire from the actual barrel. No more head glitching
-
Run away, then flank him/her from a different route
-
If I see someone headglitching, I'll normally go another route to get the drop on him or look for another target if he's pretty hunkered down.

1 ReplySame tactic for anyone hardscoping. Don't challenge. Flank around or throw grenades. If someone is looking at an area scoped in with a sniper rifle the only way you're winning a toe to toe battle is if they're absolutely poop.

1 ReplyUh dont challenge
-
Get the first shot off while you know he's hard scoped. Flank, don't challenge, nade that hoe. If you get popped from a sniper and you know he's camping, going and trying the same route will only end with you getting rekted.

360 blink no scope

Nades

Throw a solar/void/pulse grenade, the core of it can get their vision blocked, damage over time as well makes them want to move out of the way Nightstalkers can throw a smoke in the hallway
-
4 RepliesDo not fight them. Try to throw q grenade bear them to scare them while you flank
-
Never challenge from a place of weakness. If they are head glitching they are immobile. You should use that to your advantage. Always attack when you have the upper hand. It's for this reason alone I always run max recovery and agility. I'm fast and nimble.
-
Nade them out, and finish with the snipe

JUMP JUMP JUMP JAAAAACKEEEEEE CHAAAAAAAAN!!!!
-
You learn spots where you can see them and they cant see you. Map awareness is key.
-
Drag scope HARD step out with it level to a head I the far side of the guy and hold your stick the opposite direction and shoot, assuming the right level (height) the reticle will stop on his head long enough for you to hit him without noticing, or flank if you want to play safe but that's no fun
-
Head glitching snipers are a stupid bunch, best thing to do is either wait them out or flank them with something close range. What I normally do is have a teammate distract them while I come around, they can usually only focus on one person so no matter what happens me or my friend usually kill the bastard. If the head glitching sniper has some friends watching his back you should probably get somebody to come with you to help you get behind the sniper and take out his little team.
-
Don't challenge. If he headglitches he probably isn't really good at quickscoping so just flank him.
-
If you don't attempt flanking / throwing a grenade , the best way is to stay calm , don't think about the fact that they have an advantage , and move side to side while lining up the perfect shot to blow their brains out
-
3 RepliesShotgun to the back of the head, as they are usually scoped in and have no idea you're there.
-
It's not called head glitching because of that. It's called that because your gun is actually behind whatever you are using as cover, thus, when fired should not go through a wall. The bullet actually comes from your face lol

Armour piercing rounds im not mlg just useing common sense

I suggest using a grenade to make them move. I personally hate using snipers, so I just throw a grenade towards them and see if they move. If that doesn't move them, either blind charge at them using springs for feet, or go around.
-
Crouch or slide in and drag scope em

7 RepliesComing from someone who considers themself a GOOD sniper, the best advice i can give you is to not challenge us. You dont have to go to them, make them come to you. But if you do choose to go to them NEVER walk or run around cover, we have our cursor aimed at head height at that spot, run and jump out, if they miss their first shot hopefully you can stagger them. Or best yet, have a teammate rush them from another angle and hit them at the same time. He can't snipe you both.

Snipe... Better
