Getting in close to attack a Sniper is often difficult, especially when he's targeting you. The best class to kill a Sniper with is another Sniper. Switching to Sniper solely to counter an enemy Sniper may deprive your team of a useful teammate, however, and can lead to infamous "Sniper wars", where Snipers dedicate all their time to taking pot-shots at one another. | Getting in close to attack a Sniper is often difficult, especially when he's targeting you.

| − | The best class aside from Sniper to act as a counter is [[Class:Medic|Medic]]. His Super Shotgun can tear through the Sniper's weak armor, his Concussion Grenades are very effective against a class that relies on exact aim, and his Infection can prove very annoying. However against a skilled Sniper a Medic may struggle to get close, and often a Medic's time can be better spent working towards capturing the flag. | + | The best class aside from Sniper to act as a counter is [[Class:Medic|Medic]].

Snipers are often surprisingly effective at defending themselves at close range, as their Sniper Rifle does as much damage as it does at a distance, and they do not have tunnel vision while charging. Their Auto Rifle can deal out a respectable amount of damage, and their Frag Grenades are as deadly as those of any class. | Snipers are often surprisingly effective at defending themselves at close range, as their Sniper Rifle does as much damage as it does at a distance, and they do not have tunnel vision while charging.
