League of Legends.

Okay I've played both and prefer League, DotA just isn't as smooth and user friendly. But I do play DotA as some of my friends started playing DotA.

I've been playing Phoenix, the Q is just so awesome. And it's a Phoenix.

I'm actually looking for a burst/assassin type character. Something like Riven or Katarina from League.
If you're looking for burst magic damage, I suggest lina because she has a reliable aoe stun, optimal aoe damaging q, a nice passive that increases attack speed and movement speed depending on how many spells you cast, and a large damage ulti.  If you are looking for a solely physical damage burst assassin, I suggest Phantom Assasain, who has (I believe) the highest crit in game as a passive ulti, and many ways to make the chance to crit practically irrelevant.

Also why not skill shrapnel?  It's quite viable, even though it deals no tower damage anymore.

My personal favorite is ancient apparition, simply because of ice vortex and the global ulti of doom. 😈

I don't bother to skill Shrapnel because from what I have found, it's not that relevant with last hitting. I believe that since my goal is to get a Desolator first, I'll need the headshot procs first followed by the extra range on level two. Plus, once I get my Desolator, I'm in business. In the late game, Sniper becomes a machine gun on drugs because of the Desolater followed with the bonus 30% attack speed granted by Mask of Madness and the chance to chain lightning from Maelstrom. It's quite effective. Believe me. And there's also the 30% crit rate from Crystalys. As well as the Shadow and the Lesser Main from Silver Edge.
True, and I see your point there, I just like it because sniper has no real escape mechanism if ganked, so shrapnel tends to delay them with the slow.  And it gives vision, which is really good when heroes try to escape through the trees.  Might I suggest 1 point in it at level 12?

Thanks for the advice. I'll try out the build.

It was funny, I was playing with a friend, who hadn't played an moba before.  And he was practicing for awhile, so I queued up with him, and he chose earth spirit like right off the bat.  I wondered why, and then it turns out.

He played earth spirit better on his first try then I ever have been able to 0_0
Which sucks because I really have been trying to learn.

Yeah. He's really hard to use. :P.
