    -Such as sitting in the enemy base, and sitting outside the enemy base.
    -Yes, I want to sit in my base they entire match and not help my team push by destroying turrets and killing bots out of their spawn.
    -Easily flak blocked hallways that you can't enter during the flak animation
    -Annihilator in the middle of the map next to the enemy base and were 300 bots converge.

    Also you can't sit on the ground BECAUSE OF THEY ANNOYING *** BOUNCERS/cap rage, so you have to sit on a bridge. And there's no good bridge to sit on.

    The reality is that if your team doesn't control mid-map, you can never move up effectively as a Sniper on any map. This one is no different.

    If you are an effective Sniper, though, you will be a big enough help to your team so they control mid map, then you push up with them and get a view of their entire side of the map. Mid map control is imperative on Spunky Cola (like the other arenas) so that should be your first priority anyways. This map gives Snipers very good architecture to help gain that mid-map control and do it from relative safety.

    Yes, it's all about pushing past mid map. But that's too hard to do because of the random spawning bouncers making ground movement impossible, and the other fact that the bases are so close. And you can't go on the bridge because EVERYBODY goes to the bridge. So there's not much you can do besides camp in your base like everybody's raving about, which is retarded. I want to destroy turrets and bots to help my bots take down the money ball.

    first time I jumped into this map, I had a sniper on my team who threw down traps constantly.

    On an almost constant rate, I heard the traps go off and realized the person caught in it was an ice man (enemy).

    I'd wager to say this constant trapping gave us an edge in mid map control. They were typically in those tunnels too.

    I love how Spunky Cola shuts down defensive snipers. It's the best map ever.

    I'm surprised people don't spam them more. They're amazing.

    IKR! When he was doing that, I told him I had never seen someone use the traps like that.

    It's funny cause he has only been playing this game for a week or so.

    They seem to be very useful. I'm also surprised more people don't use them like this.

    I was playing last night, on Spunky Cola, and a Sniper on my team Ice Trap the crap out of the place. I was just minding my business clearing the center on bots when, right in front of me, I notice a trapped Assassin. Without thinking I wasted her. The Sniper raged at me for taking his kill. Throughout that match I think I killed 6+ players frozen in traps and every time he got mad. I just laughed and said "It's wasn't my kill, It was our kill." :lol:

    Haha, should have told him to kill them faster if he wanted the kills!

    My guest didn't care about the kills he didn't get. He was doing it mainly in the bot lanes.

    Trap em then flak em. He's not very good at head shots yet. :)

    Spunky cola is awesome I love it, it's like the de_dust of MNC for me so far, maybe I will get bored of it but it's so fast, hectic and you can approach it in 20+ different ways and counting. :cool:

    O_O! First time I sniped on that map I went 30-0. I LOVE it for sniping. So many awesome vantage points. Oh, and the Bouncer/Gremlin problem? Stay off the ground ;)

    It's easy to go 30-0 with a Sniper, I just don't like how this map makes you stay up on your side of the map.

    I have to agree.

    But when I snipe i'm usually set up in the halls in the top middle. Idk if that's a good explanation, but I always have two ice traps right there so as soon as anybody walks out from there spawn (atleast up top that is) they get frozen and then blained. <3

    Or ill be on the annihilator just killing bots and the occasional gunner who goes to the ejector.
