    Its not that easy to avoid pools if they're all over the place, which is true almost everytime in the narrow CTF hallways.
    You are comparing a non-crit aimed shot with SnS damage while including the factor that SnS crits. That is hardly a fair comparison. When SnS does not crit, it will not do more damage than a non-critical aimed shot. Similarly, if we factor in aimed shot crit and SnS pool crit, the pools will not out damage an Aimed Shot. Furthermore, Aimed Shot's second hit is always higher than it's first so Aimed Shot always > SnS Pools.

    If they did, I would be using Aimed Shot second and SnS pools first.

    600-800 damage is the non-crit calculation. Your video shows it.

    Okay, it still does not prove that SnS deals more damage than an Aimed shot. I explained that this is because the second Aimed Shot always hits harder than the first. So, Aimed Shot will always outdamage SnS pools.

    By what? 100? 200 damage? Does aim shot hit multiple people? No sir.

    Wow, I just realised, it has potential to do =< damage equivalent to 5 aimed shots.

    No, the second hit of aimed shot is always considerably more. My first hit will be roughly 1.4k but the second non-crit hit can be 1.8-2k uncharged.
