I love chasing down a sniper

[GreenKirby]

You see a sniper on higher ground trying to earn some free hits and hinder your team’s progress. And you decide to ambush him by crawling up the wall for a sneak attack. Or even better, when they’re trying to aim at you, but since you’re in the wall, it’s futile. But they do it anyway HOPING that an ever loving God gives him a miracle. Panicking, the sniper decides to flee but you’re on his tail like a predator on the hunt. You shoot him a bit to whittle down his HP. And the sniper realizes he trapped. There’s no more ally ink for him to swim too. So he decides to escape by foot… while he’s on enemy ink. And it’s like watching a wounded animal on its last legs in desperation. So you decide to go all Leon Powalski and say “I think I’ll torture you for awhile!” And when you’re done you pull the final shot and watch him explode. Your ink marking yet more territory as his remains devolve into nothingness.

And then you taunt and hear the Inkling girl’s cute cry of “Yaaaay!” and giggle at another kill well done

That got dark real quick.

I share your sentiments on this. I'm definitely a close-combat type of person, and I always chase and hunt down Chargers/Snipers when I get the chance.

Seeing them freak out and try to run/swim away or shoot recklessly at you before you splat them is so rewarding. :p

 

[Hope]

The good snipers go for shots if you don't immediately kill them and they are still running.

Surprising them with is also pretty satisfying. Along with rollers. When you trap a roller, then they try to splat you, but then you bubble, its great.

One of my main weapons is the Carbon Roller Deco. I personally favor going around [hopefully without them noticing] and coming up from behind them, swatting them like a fly. :P It's also quite fun on certain stages to recklessly jump in front of them and swat them before they can shoot their weapon. Reckless because if they shoot first then I'm dead first haha. xP

Since Bubblers were mentioned... Rollers really do need to learn not to take a Splattershot Jr head on in Turf Wars. You're almost always going to get hit with it. Instead, it's quite satisfying to go around and get them from behind. 'Course that doesn't work if your team isn't winning and you don't have any ink to sneak in. :c

Being a Splattershot Pro user, I love it when snipers forget that their weapons aren't the only ones with good range... Anyway when there's a sniper stopping my team from progressing, I like instantly turn into a terminator and my main priority becomes killing them.

 

[Elecmaw]

You guys are cruel, you know that?

I get the feeling nobody likes us chargers anymore.

 

[Pteropine]

The feeling of getting a sniper from behind is really nice omg yes

Thats basically me when I'm maining the Custom Jet Squelcher in Ranked and some Charger is preventing my team from advancing.

The Suction Bombs are also a nice way to quickly drive them out of their camping sites. ;)

nice fanfiction

 

[_clementine]

I feel like this too, but maybe not as... intensely.
And don't worry chargers! We still like you... when you're on our team. :P

I can't deny snipers are the most satisfying players to splat, especially one that gives you trouble for the entire match. Splatting one with an inkzooka when they think they have you pinned down is also a magical feeling.

Remember that thread I made where I talked about showing mercy to low level players? When they use chargers, I throw that sentiment out the door. If I can potentially discourage another person from becoming a sniper, then I have done my duty for all the other close range players like myself.

I remember one time I was being chased at the warehouse, kept throwing burst bombs to defend myself as I tried to get away. I think I was saved by a teammate at the nick of time, don't remember who they were though...

Anyways, one thing I've kind of wondered is why people hate chargers so much?

 

[warghoul]

Proficient charger users are the worst, unless they are on my team, :)

Love snipping chargers with the inkzooka. o_O

 

[shy]

Every time I chase down a sniper they always throw splat bombs at me then we both end up getting splatted.

It's not that people hate chargers, it's just that we dislike it when the good snipers are on the other team because it usually results in a loss for us lol

 

[Dish]

loln thatll never work against a decent charger that knows how to super jump

Aw~ We still like you guys who use chargers. :3 We just hate you when you're on the other team lol. :P

 

[nishijimagi]

I remember chasing down this charger throughout the whole match so much they ran away from me every time they saw me. I felt so good about it. After that they weren't a problem to my team c:
