Ghost1237 Posted May 18, 2014 Share Posted May 18, 2014 Not sure I understand this. Why is flies considered so good on the sniper? Just look at the Anger, where flies is priced higher than Roboactive, Ghosts, and Circling Heart. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Grimes Posted May 18, 2014 Share Posted May 18, 2014 Combination of being themed (Sniper = Australian, Australia has lots of flies), and flies being a good effect for sniper gameplay as you don't stick out like a sore thumb. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rambro Posted May 18, 2014 Share Posted May 18, 2014 Its themed like he's camping out in the wilderness and he gets dirty or something, idgaf. Flies is still ugly on most hats. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

knavesmith Posted May 18, 2014 Share Posted May 18, 2014 Isn't this the same thing with engie and nuts n boltsPractically, but Engie w/N&B seems more obvious IMO. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Seminal Inhalation Posted May 18, 2014 Share Posted May 18, 2014 Because the sniper literally lives in his own filth. He pisses in jars which he keeps with him and wears clothes made out of dead animal skins. He can't move in order to not be seen by enemies. Also well liked due to low visibility which is needed when you're a sniper. And some flies sniper hats are double themed: Bloke's Bucket. Swagman's Swatter. Snaggletooth.

Is this a thing, that people overpay cancer unusuals just for the sake of having an unusual? I mean, in like 2 years of comp. sniper I've still not met a sniper wearing an unusual.

RazQ Posted May 19, 2014 Share Posted May 19, 2014 I mean, in like 2 years of comp. sniper I've still not met a sniper wearing an unusual. Yes, many competitive snipers have unusuals (my friend for example has burning belt) they just don't wear them in matches, they use them only in public servers.

CrimsonWarlord Posted May 20, 2014 Share Posted May 20, 2014 If you play the game seriously with sniper, you want an unusual but don't want to affect your performance, flies does that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
F CHARLIE Posted May 20, 2014 Share Posted May 20, 2014 Personally think its crap. There are better liw visibility effects than flies. Steaming and smoking. Overclock. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dtn Posted May 20, 2014 Share Posted May 20, 2014 I understand why flies in sniper is themed, but personally I think this is not cool :S Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
