Watching Puppey's stream is hilarious for me because the way he complains about his teammates sounds exactly like me. Haha!

Sniper itembuild? Treads->lifesteal->manta feels really weak... even with good farm pace

Maybe phase and drums?

http://www.teamliquid.net/forum/viewmessage.php?topic_id=378964

edit: Don't go lifesteal that early. Lifesteal is an item that is stronger the more damage you do since it gives you a % of your damage. Early in the game you do little damage, so lifesteal gives only a little back to you compared to other items.

It's situational but treads + aquila + deso + manta would be a decent item progression. Maybe chuck in a drums in the middle of that if you want a little more survivability.

Treads are horrible on sniper IMO. Phase give better damage for last hits, and better movespeed to just get away from people. If they get to you as sniper you will die, doesn't matter if you have treads/phase by then.

I also prefer Phrase (to a lesser extend, Transquil Boot) to Tread on Sniper.
It's because that although it's nice if you can position yourself right in the first time to maximize the damage, but since you have limited information about the enemy's position, most of the time you have to re-position yourself on the go. Tread don't give you that ability, if you get caught out of position, you'll most likely die because tread only gives you 150hp, and a wild spells from heroes can negate it.
Moreover, it's not like sniper is the fastest hero around or anything, in this game, sniper is only faster than morphling, pudge, shadow shaman, viper, crystal maiden, invoker, technies(7 heroes), so if he get caught out of position, he's done.

What an annoyance, these random dota 2 freezes (ones that last for like two seconds) are starting to become a slight bother. Hate when it happens at critical times.

Dota 2, why you be no nice to me, why!

As for being on topic, I much prefer Phase boots over treads as well on sniper. But I prefer the boots over treads in general. Always seems like people will have their own preference.
