For The Lulz is a worthier cause than For The Win.
From the skies to the ground, I'm the one that'll reign destruction down on you from behind the wheel and the flight stick. Keep your eyes on the rear view mirror, or you may be eating exhaust aside the road, riddled with holes.
My sniper is hungry for souls.
If at first you fail, fail again so that you succeed by wrapping your fail around the continuum into the win zone.

I do not have a horrible sniper. In fact, it's better than yours.
Check the numbers.
You have 2,478 kills and a 1.91 K/D. 84 sniper sprees, 7 sharpshooters and 1 be the bullet. 1,498 headshots.
I have 6,723 kills and a 2.30 K/D. 325 sniper sprees, 48 sharpshooters and 14 be the bullets. 4,526 headshots.
I don't think meags would claim his sniper is good either.
My sniper stats are a little better than yours, I would say, but I don't consider my sniper to be good. Better than the average thumbless kid that plays this game, yes. Good? No. When I watch players like Formal in action I realise just how much I suck.
"horrible" is a bit extreme though.
Comparing yourself to Formal is hardly productive. If your standards are that high, there's a problem. Of course big name people like that are going to make you look terrible by comparison. When I watch pro montages and such, I feel like I could never pull off anything they do. But when I'm playing, I'm anything but down on myself.
A good sniper, truth be told, is just one who gets consistent headshots and helps the team. Nothing more, nothing less. Honestly, as long as you're helping the team win, you're doing your job. If it's FFA, it's a little different. Are you consistent, and is your aim good? Then you're a good sniper. You don't have to get massive multikills to be a good sniper. Sometimes, a single kill can be more impressive than an overkill.
I'd say we're all good snipers.
If your K/D is over 1.0, you're above average with a weapon. If your K/D is above 1.5, you're good. Above 2.0 is great. Above 2.5...now you start getting ridiculous.
1.0 is the average. Same as general K/D.
Your standards are far too lofty, my friend.
So, to sum it up: If your K/D is above 1.5 and you get consistent headshots, you're a good sniper. Maybe not great, maybe not awesome, but good.
Are you Formal? No. Are you Best Man or Dutchy or Just Mad or whoever else? Hell no. But who cares?
