Sando's Guide to Sniper

+1 nice guide as always, hope you keep writing guides

One comment on Silver Edge. Silver Edge debuff is very strong against passive reliant heroes such as Bristleback, who is definitely a current meta hero. If the debuff is applied before Black King Bar is used, even casting Black King Bar will not remove the debuff. This is very strong and a possible reason why to get Silver Edge over say, Blink Dagger

Thanks for all the nice comments guys, fixed a few typos and mistakes based on the feedback.

Really nice general guide indeed, despite some small imprecisions! Nice to keep up the pace of writing new guides for every hero :) +1

Deso is not a UAM. Still, guide is very good, easy +1.

Aaaaaaand he's back :)

Thanks for making more guides Sando, we all appreciate it! :D
Plus, we need some good quality guides to balance out the ones I've been seeing lately haha

One small thing - headshot reduces movement speed to 100, not 0.

+1, no brainer.

The guide is interesting, and I like how it focuses on the strengths and weaknesses of the hero. Just let me point out something about his Aghanim's Scepter upgrade. By default, Assassinate deals a fixed amount of magical damage, but when upgraded, the damage is replaced by an instant autoattack (think Stifling Dagger) with a guaranteed 2.8x crit (and Headshot proc). This means the damage becomes physical and scales with your farm, and also procs on-hit effects like Desolator or Eye of Skadi. This doesn't make Aghanim's Scepter core or anything like that, but I think it's worth keeping in mind for certain situations.
