• Push out the lane with Shrapnel prior to rune spawns.
• Look to stack the nearby big jungle camp with Shrapnel whenever you can.
• Sniper doesn`t like to rotate too much, so focus on farming and pressure the tower if opponents` mid rotates.
• Don`t let opponents see you at the start of a fight. Let them focus on someone else.
• If you feel you might be ganked, Shrapnel the wave and move out.
• Sniper is really strong at defending buildings with Shrapnel and his long attack range.
• When in trouble, often times the correct play is to press Take Aim and stand your ground.
