What I've found out from personal expirience, Pyro's can be a real B**** to a sniper. With their little Incindiary Rocket Launcher, it can burn the frail sniper, AND hamper their vision.
Spy's work also, their pills also create fake fire and can simulate a hit, so their aim gets rattled around.
Sniper war is always fun to watch, but you have to be better or more cunning then the other person. Luck plays no role here.
Eng. = Target practice, but their Railgun can be a nice little pointer, so you know where to shoot.
HW's can't really go Anti-Sniper, especially at long ranges. They'll get killed before they can toss a grenade or fire up the AC.
Scouts are small and fast, so they're a hard target. Throw a few conc their way, and you can pull the entire team in.
Soldiers are slow and big, but they have a rocket Launcher. I say it's 50/50, depending on the sniper.
Medics are like scouts, but slightly bigger and have real grenades and that med-kit. I was infecting everyone last night in 2-fort. What Fun! Go medic if you want some dead snipers, or their spawn is far away, so they have more distance to travel.
A good way to kill a sniper is to find the alternate route. In almost every map of CTF (Cap the Flag, not a TFC typo), there is another way to get into or behind the enemy. 2-fort has the water ways, and you can enter and exit either way. Well has that too, and so do a lot of others.
There, a lot a Anti-Sniper stuff.
GET TO IT SOLDIER! |

Sneaking doesn't work all to well. Me and a few of my sniper buddies who like to snipe from the entrance on 2fort 'know' when an enemy will come through the ws, and so just listen carefully, and that's one baddie taken care of. |

Meh. If I play as a scout on 2fort I just ignore them and head for the waterway. Same goes for most CTF styled stages. Take the long way around
However... On stages like Dustbowl. I simply snipe them back. |

Meh. Mirvs are overkill when it comes to snipers. Just use a few normals and be on your way.
Course. nail grenades on the otherhand. All good there =D |

Not really an opinion because im usually the annoying sniper.
Hw works very effectively for awhile. When he's shooting you, even at long range, a sniper cant keep his xhairs still. I just run away when a HW comes near me or i take pot shots and run. |

Likewise. Though when they are focused on a cadre of sollies or somthing it can be pretty easy to get a good headshot in. |

Indeed. Though I still screw with them once in a while. It's all in good clean fun. |
