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
- 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. Or maybe in this case, something else...
- 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 equipped whilst wearing the Master's Yellow Belt, he will hold onto thin air in place of his no longer equipped hat.
- The yellow color on the Masters Yellow Belt is a reference to Jarate. Does this mean The Sniper practiced urination?
- Even when painted a different non-yellow color, the hat still retains the name "Masters Yellow Belt."
- It is possible that the sniper used this as a bath room rag used to clean up "messes" and was later mistaken for a head band by the sniper.
- The Yellow Belt is a symbol of the snipers Jarate training and in a way the yellow belt would be the black belt of karate in the arts of Jarate as it is a sign of numerous veteran experience in the arts of pee filled jars of Jarate
