*Sniper's high burst damage is useful in the early-game, while serving as okay damage towards the mid-game. Use it to pop high-HP Bloons, especially the [[Blooming Bloon (BCS)|Blooming Bloon]]. Notably, it can one-shot a Blooming Bloon except if buffed by the passives of [[Amelia (BCS)|Amelia]] or [[Zee Jay (BCS)|Zee Jay]]. It has greater damage-to-gold ratio to single targets than most early-game Monkeys.

**Compared to the [[Bomb Shooter (BCS)|Bomb Shooter]], which costs 1 less Gold and has Armor Piercing, the Sniper has one less reload, has 10 extra ATK, and counts as a Military Monkey (mainly impactful for [[War Bonds]]).

**[[Night Vision Sniper]] costs 1 Gold more with 10 extra ATK than the normal Sniper. In [[Striker Jones (BCS)|Striker Jones]] decks, having both of these Snipers is useful to survive early-game more consistently.
*While a decent candidate for [[Try this!]], and serviceable in newbie decks, most other Monkeys are preferred for the early-game once unlocked. As a Common, however, the Sniper can be drawn more likely than more popular early-game cards such as [[Barrel of Monkeys]].
