Location

1. Location
Your location is probably one of the most important thing to keep in mind to being a good sniper. For example... Say ur in a low point on the map and your forced to shoot high (THAT IS BAD) Experienced shooters in real life and video games should know that shooting up is alot harder then shooting down. Another example... Say ur in a spot with no view of the battle field.. (BAD ALSO) how you suppose to shoot dem heavies and medics? Too far behind the frontline... same for the one above. Another one... is that your in the middle of a open area and ur sniping.. (BAD) Your looking through scope and BAM a pyro finds u and sprays u with flames. Those are some of the many ways of how you will not support your team by being a plain noob.
Now it is time to take a look at good locations. One good location would be a spot were you can see the main battle field and see whats going on (i dont mean in the middle of the open). Another one would be to have a high vantage point which basically helps with the same one i mentioned above. Also Being semi hidden for the pesky spies wont find you and stab in the back (such cowards). A good spot would to have ur back to a wall and in a corner. These positons will help you shoot all the people giving ur team trouble.

Honestly this is based on personal opinions. But ill tell u mine
Primary: Stock/Hitmans heat maker (Why? Because the stock is strong and the hitmans focus i like and that the heads blow off)
Secondary: Razorback (Most spies are stupid noobs that will stab anything giving u the chance to pull out your kukri to kill the dummy)
Melee: Strange kukri (Just strange cause i wanted to have a cool thingy but otherwise bushwacka or a regular kukri)
Personally i think these are bad things to use.
Syndey Sleeper: Meh never thought of it as much
Machina: Tracers easily followed and then them spies come after you like bees and honey also no unscoping
Bazaar Bargain: You basically need aimbot to use this.
Cozy camper: You heal sooooo coooll. Wont protect against back stabs and other wise does nothing good
This sections is based on my personal opinion every one has there own though and i respect that.
3. Things to keep you safe
1. Spy checking (Pull out that kukri and slice at everyone near you)
2. When vs another sniper (dont sit in one spot cause your dead but instead move around side to side
3. Spies(More pests than actual threat if you have the razor back but if there experienced they will shoot u in the face)
4. Never trust a spy..
5. See noobs easy to pick off? (Well pick em off dont pass up a target unless your being attacked)

Well that concludes my first guide to tf2. Hope you learned many things from it. and may your sniping be better than it ever has before. THE END

P.s. This is my first guide sorry if it isnt that great

P.P.s. Anybody have the hat the Anger? if so im willing to trade for it and friend me if u want to trade.
