Sniper is absoultely useless
his hp is way too less
one stun and one cleave from Centaur can confirm the kill anytime
with Sniper you have to survive for 30 mins against them (and i personally have my vengeance over those heroes such as sniper ,DR and huskar etc.,)
and you have to farm like hell and do join in ganks too

The reason Sniper is useless because he needs a lot of uninterrupted farm to get into flow. Also, none of his abilities can be counted as a team fight skill while Drow has her passive bonus damage for range heores, slow shots and an AoE silence, which makes her a better hero in all aspects. Sniper too have a AoE slow, but one can avoid it by mere common sense.
Some more heroes you may try are
Venomancer
Crystal Maiden
Centaur Warrunner
Lion
Sand King
Vengeful Spirit
Sven (supportive role)
All the heroes I mentioned are support heroes by default . Venomancer, Vengeful Spirit and Sven can carry the game too (meaning with good items, you can actually be the damage dealer in team fight). Their main role is to help your allies survive the battle or make a team fight easier to your team. Thats why they are also known as "baby sitting" heroes as they help the carry heroes get their farm.
Also, take a look at this post *www.thinkdigit.com/forum/gamerz/155817-dota-2-a-31.html#post1888364

Have u guys updated your DOta 2 ? For me its 652 Mb update and i am sure my game was fully updated since this morning because i was playing it then...
I checked the changelog. There is some minor changes in UI, spectator mode features and support for XboX360 controler and Linux. No new heroes introduced. Here is the changelog
Do you think this warrants an update which is 1/6th of the entire game's size ? Or is it that it is supposed to be few Mbs of download and my game is kinda messed up ?

Which server do you guys play on .. and how to connect to that ???

Select SEA server only ...select region->click on SE Asia->save settings
resaons for not selecting other than SEA
1)More Russians that 90% of them tries to communicate with me with their own language..
2)most other region players have headphone and they are always speaking instead of chatting
(not be a problem but some of the voices gonna be unclear)
