Snipers are excellent for Beacon defending and support fire in big maps, but only used in pairs or in single unite. Low DPS, but can fire as soon as weapon is reloaded and rarely misses.

I don't know where all this hate for snipers come from. PDBs have higher DPS than any sniper, sure, but what's the point of a high DPS when you have nothing to shoot at? Snipers can hit about any target that's not behind cover in large maps, while knife-fighters need to close in to fire.

Never use more than 2 snipers though. 1 is the optimal number, 2 is good, but 3 is awful.
