    Sniper has been buffed for almost 3 years now and its disgustingly OP, there is no reason for a spell that does aoe damage & slow, give vision and has 2000 cast range to have 3 charges. He's at almost 60%wr in TI so far. Everybody who said "lol just jump him' was completely wrong, his stats and survivability have been too overtuned. I cant wait for the post-ti patch when he gets nerfed to smithereens and i can go back to playing mid in a skillful manner against other midlaners and not have to sit in lane and stare at shrapnel for 6 out of the first 8min of the game.

      @@mikerochalopez8301 I often go yasha and kaya along with euls. If I'm supporting I tend to go mana boots, that I disassemble and turn into bots. If I'm core I go boots of bearing instead because the build up is really nice and sniper loves it's active.
      I tend to start with a wind lace and three branches and build into yasha first, from there I might go for brown boots into tranqs and another wind lace or I go into mana boots, to later disassemble and build into bots. It's been a while since I've done support sniper, so I tend to go tranqs these days.
      after tranqs and my 2nd wind lace, I build my kaya and then I then to go euls next followed by a 3rd windlace, this last one is to finish the boots of bearing later.
      If I ever feel like I might want more right click damage, I just go Maelstrom, which I later turn into Mjoliner.
      I tend to play him off-lane and, as crazy as it sounds, my final item is usually AC but the swift blink isn't bad, either. If I'm supporting I often build octarine and/or aghs instead
      The point is not to be like a drill to just hammer enemies down. The idea is to me more like a sheep dog. You dance around the outside of fights and try to corral the enemy team. With positioning and shrapnel. It's more of a tempo build and the timing of items is important. That's why I use a lot of cheap items, like tranqs, euls, kaya and yasha along with maelstrom. Done right from the offlane and, after a few levels and items, the enemy carry won't be able to walk within a city block of the creep wave.

      As far as hero matchups go sniper is like lina - he doesn't really lose mid (brood and bat excluded, but bat would have to be played correctly, and that probably means divine+ at least). So unless they have insane catch, if you feel you have heroes that can do stuff and you can chill and just use their plays he can be picked.

      @@laurnero8399 I go full stats at the start 10 agility 4 strength. 2 Wraith Bands. 3 Bands sometimes. I mainly play 0-4-4-0 that gives me a lot of physical DMG and distance. Dragon lance is a must. Madness is a high risk high reward item because of the silence. Sniper had no mobility I almost always buy shard as 3rd or 2nd item I feel like Shard can be even better than a bkb in some scenarios, it's faster at reposition than hurricane for example when BSJ died vs Luna bkb just do nothing for him.
      Something that I agree with BSJ is blink dagger, it extends your range from 1200 to 2400, so you can just join the fight at the best moment, for example after void using Chrono or 1st skill.
      If my HC is someone like Ursa Slark or Void and it's dominating, I buy a scepter to help him, because he will make me win.
      I hardly believe that better positioning surpasses BKB on range HC, specially on Sniper and I only build BKB on very hard games, but that doesn't mean I go full DMG I often buy shard manta hurricane satanic and dagger.
      Sniper best friends for me are the strong dispellers like LC Abaddon and Omni. If you have enough DMG and can perpetuate your survivability you will win the game.
      So this is commonly my way to go, it obviously can change based on the game
      Dragon Lance
      Cheap DMG Item (Maelstrom,Madness,Crystalis)
      Shard
      Survivability or Stats item (Manta/BKB/Hurricane/Satanic,Skadi)
      Second Survivability item
      Full DMG Item (Deadalous, Silver, Butterfly, Moonshard, Mjolnir)
      Sometimes I just go nuts MoonShard + Deadalous and dagger, that's when they don't have someway to approach me and I go full DMG+ Shard and reposition items

      @@ДаниилТемный-ю4ь I got those results when I returned to college in April. So I didn't play a lot. I think that's something important. 3-4 Good matches a day is way better than 8-10 a day.
      I reached Ancient V before in 2018. I came back to dota in December 2021.
      Yep I insta first pick sniper when mid. That's a fact too, spamming a hero gives you more opportunities to succeed because you become more proficient.
      In late game it's all about position.
      You have to check who in the other team can catch you and how easily and also who is looking always for you. For example an Ogre Magi can reach you but it's not easy for him, you can see him coming, you can dodge his stun with manta or shard. He takes a big risk going for you. Spirit breaker is very similar, he has Q but you have shard, you can just shut him down with that. I can guarantee you that with decent reflexes you can outstand almost any non BKB initiation from the enemies if you have shard plus hurricane, even an spectre can't menace you if you make a good use of your survivability items.
      So in a few words. Shard and hurricane are your best friends you almost never want to use those ítems offensenly, for sniper due to his insane range, reposition surpasses spell inmunity.
      And also like BSJ says. BKB denieds your DMG.
      Playing sniper is playing with the constant idea that they would make efforts on catch you. You have to denied those efforts while trying to hit enemies, so you can take advantage of your partners too.
      And in the middle game you can denied very commonly those efforts with just a shard and great DMG output, at least on divine bracket.
      Another way to denied those efforts is with blink dagger in late game. You just hidden yourself until the enemies spends the skills and items that can trouble you. For example if I have insane DMG + blink against void. I just wait for him to either his Q or R and the shut him down of force him to retreat.
      In conclusion. Sniper needs DMG items, but he needs more a good positioning, you main goal is to never lose your position and to denied enemy efforts to catch you. If you need to buy 4 items to do that then do it.

You kept throwing out all possible scenarios at every point of decision making you were talking about. As a viewer I find this really overwhelming. It would be better if you stick to one idea at a time. For example, a certain build for sniper on a certain lane with a certain teammate against a certain opponent. This will allow the viewer to follow along with this isolated sample scenario and then they would start experimenting with possible situation variations on their own such as what if the opponent was a different hero or had different items, etc.
