#tf2 sniper

LIVE

Sniper gets so much shit in almost every Meet the Team video. The way he burns to death in Meet the Pyro is heart-wrenching. His corpse is the campfire in Meet the Engineer. He gets his ass handed to him in Meet the Spy. He dies dramatically in the Meet the Medic outtakes. He’s shot in the eye through his own scope in a Mann vs Machine video. Even in Meet the Sniper he can’t catch a goddamn break.

This is Sniper’s right thumb I’ve seen in various sfm photos. Did he hurt his thumb or something? His thumbnail is all black but the rest of his fingers/nails are fine looking.

Please explain?

His sniper rifle has a manually operated bolt action on the right-hand side. The bruise (a subungual haematoma) is caused by trying to reload too fast (too many people wanting him dead on the battlefield?) and getting his thumb caught in the sliding mechanism.

Watch how his right hand moves to pull back the handle, unload the spent cartridge case, and slide the fresh round into the breech:

The bolt-action mechanism looks something like this (source: wikipedia) - it is allegedly quite painful to get your fingers pinched in it:

That’s Valve for you - completely ridiculous canon, perfectly detailed character designs.

DEEPEST LORE
