A woman's erect nipples seen through her clothing. The verb "to snipe" originated in the 1770s among soldiers in British India in the sense of: “to shoot from a hidden place.” Likewise, while often covered and camouflaged, nipples can take down a target from great distances.

a remarkably skilled marksman in real life, or in a video game
1)in the video game scenario, he/she is usually considered "cheap", a "noob", or a coward
(s)he usually pisses off those of the other team by sniping them from halfway across the map from a very covert location.
although (s)he is a threat from far away, one can strafe back and forth to avoid being shot while closing in on his/her location, and if the player gets to close enough to the sniper, the sniper is rendered virtually useless because "unscoped" shots are particularly hard to pull off
2)a sniper may also piss off his teammates, too, by shooting the person the player is sneaking up on, therefore making the sniper a "kill stealer"

for professional school students (med school, law school, etc.)
like a gunner, but instead of letting everyone know he/she is a gunner, this person silently works hard, but appears very chill; in the end he/she kicks everyone's ass when the exam grades come out.
