Sniper Meta mistake

Making long range fights more prominent with a super buffed sniper Meta is a horrible mistake in a movement oriented game. Every game is so dull and boring when you get shot from 5 directions by 5 te...

@E9ine_AC 

I see what you mean and occasionally one may have the per se best position and at the same time worst because they are surrounded by teams and all the teams focus them for some reason. 

Yup there really is no escaping that. But really how often does that happen, in the past and now. for me in the past maybe once or twice currently in the new season not yet. 

The OP suggests that this is happening repeatedly to them. All I can say to that, is game sense and positioning is king and knowing when to retreat instead of stay for a losing fight is the thing to do and that is, in truth, generally the case, yes there are outliers and situations that are non escapable and beyond planning but that is not the majority of cases. 

I almost never have been pinned down without the possibility of being able to escape and reposition. 

Thanks for your reply.

@Asmodeus566 This season it happens to me if i was to put a range on it 80% of my ranked matches. 20% being 3v3 or even 3v6. It def is not an isolated game. It happens nearly every match just that extra 20% that's how many times I'm able to escape it. So I agree with OP it happens nearly every game. I am not one to comment on these type of posts but I will say I personally in my lobbies see a mass load of snipers.

    @E9ine_AC 

    I agree that there are a mass load of snipers right now compared to last season, @chiefthunderball is correct about that. It is not easy to deal with.

    I disagree that it is so bad that one constantly finds oneself surrounded and sniped in a 3v15. 

    Maybe the degree or severity of the situation the OP is stating is somewhat lobby type driven and or even playstyles from server to server and region driven along with time of day/night. IDK it just seems to be not all that bad at all for me as of yet. German servers, late evenings/night time and Gold lobbies. 

    Thanks for your response, I value it, especially since I do know you do not post that often.
