The Sniper

The Master's Yellow Belt is a headwear item for the Sniper. Released with Classless Update, it appears as a yellow cloth belt tied around the Sniper's forehead.

Trivia

  • This may be a reference to the movie The Karate Kid, in which the main character's master gives him a uniform and headband of his own design.
  • Disturbingly, yellow may not be this headband's original color. It may have been stained yellow as a result of Jarate practice. Although modern belts are colored with dyes, traditionally martial artists began their training with a white belt, which eventually became stained black from years of sweat, dirt, and blood.
  • In Japanese, there is a phrase that describes the act of putting on a similar headband, and is used as an expression to describe getting down to work. A Western world equivalent to that expression would be 'rolling up one's sleeves'.
  • Much similar to the headless hat item Ritzy Rick's Hair Fixative, if a Sniper taunts with the Kukri or Tribalman's Shiv equipped whilst wearing the Master's Yellow Belt, he will hold onto thin air in place of his no longer equipped hat.
