I understand your fustration Sue. That is why you make clans this day and age, to make a group of people the best that they can be, by using each of their best qualities. You all know that in a team slayer game, i would much rather hold the BR then the snipe, but due to the lack of good snipers playing, i will take the snipe and try to do well with it. If Sue or Glory is playing, i will gladly let them shoot it if they feel up to it. I will then proceed, like titus said, to protect them at all cost. Now, if one of the other guys is having a hot night, then we usually let them grab it. Halo runs in waves for most of us. Some nights we are god and others we are not. Thats why it is important to play with people you know and for people to step up and admit when they are having a bad night and give other players the opportunity to use certain weapons. For example, i would like to say that the most important stradegy on relic is getting both snipes by the downed pelican. If you get both snipes, its pretty much over (as long as the other two are at the teleporter waiting).

Now, i think team snipers playlist is helpful for the people that arent that great with the sniper. I blame alot of what happens in team slayer on that, but it has improved my skill with it. For the sniper during the game, i will waste alot of the ammo if i am getting shot and know that i am going to die. If i have a buddy with me, then ill pull out my br or smg and try and survive, but try and hurt the player that is sooting me so that the buddy can take my snipe. No scopes are for showoffs and most importantly, people that dont know that u are there. Most of the time, out of team slayer, peopel will try the no scope when threatened. In team salyer, more and more peopel will try and sticky u before the no scope.

I have used the sniper in all aspects of the game. But like sue said, give it to the better sniper becuase it is that damn important.

Side note- Sue remember that game we played (the board with the tank and train (i cant remember it right now)) and u and me both got the snipers behind the tank and rocket guy. We powned so hard that game.
