Sniper (Team Fortress 2)

"Crickey, mates! I like that sniper. His sniping skills are so cool as it should be, am I right? Well... he's an Australian. And if I were you, maybe you'd get a headshot of his own."

--Su Ji-Hoon, The Fortress Team

Hailing from New Zealand and raised in the unforgiving Australian outback, the Sniper (real name: Mr. Mundy) is a tough and ready crack shot. The Sniper's main role on the battlefield is to pick off important enemy targets (aka the guy with the best hat). He's effective at long range, but weakens with proximity, where he's forced to use his MAT-49 submachine gun or his kukri. As a result, the Sniper tends to perch on higher grounds or in hard-to-see places, where he can easily pin down enemies at chokepoints.

Although he's typically known for instantaneously killing enemies at a distance, the Sniper can use the Huntsman to get closer to the enemy. Additionally, the Sydney Sleeper and the "mysterious" contents of Jarate allow him to take on a support role by causing enemies to take mini-crits.
