So you have decided weither you should click on this guide or not. You have chosen to go in and ignored the deceiving picture. You thought it was going to be a joke guide and you expected the words "Screw y'all hats" but you're wrong. This is a serious guide and school that only the most disciplined can learn. I warn you that the art of Gibus-fu is not recommended for hatists and the arrogant lions. Read on if you dare to learn or leave like a coward. The art of Gibus-fu is one that takes years to master and to comprehend as it is a weird style of fighting. If you're still skeptical like the scout then don't be and venture further and you will find the experience rewarding.

In order for you to proceed and suceed in the art of Gibus-fu you must learn the backgrounds and where it began. There are 5 types of gibus hats and 5 stories of wonder that you will ignore because you hate reading.

The first gibus was the Ghastly Gibus which was released in the Haunted Hallowe'en Special in 2009. This hat was awarded to the first 10319 players that accessed the hidden page and entered in their Steam ID. Even though it was awarded to the first 10319 the hat can be earnt by dominating a player wearing the Ghastly Gibus. This hat is one of the most common gibuses you'll see worn by F2Ps and some P2Ps.


The second gibus was the Ghastlier Gibus, which was a upgrade to the first gibus, was released on the Scream Fortress Update in 2010. This hat didn't have a hidden page and was earnt by dominating someone with a Ghastly Gibus. This is uncommonly seen worn by most F2Ps.


The third gibus was the Ghastlierest Gibus which is also an upgrade to the Ghastlier Gibus (All new gibuses are upgrades to the predecessor one) was released in the Very Scary Halloween Special Update in 2011. This was earnt by dominating a player either wearing the Ghastly Gibus or Ghastlier Gibus and is also uncommonly worn by most F2Ps.


The fourth gibus was the Ghostly Gibus which was released in the Spectral Halloween Special and is earnt again by dominating a player with said hat. This is one of the most commonly seen worn by F2Ps and some P2Ps.

The fifth gibus is the Galvanized Gibus which was released in the May 17 2013 Robotic Boogaloo Update. If you want to know which one is the Galvanized Gibus it is the gibus built out of metal. This hat is not earnt by an achievement but instead is earnt by uncrating a Robocrate (which doesn't drop commonly these days) and is rarely seen by F2Ps (due to them for not having any keys and are hence F2P) and P2Ps. This gibus is respected by P2Ps as it can have an unusual effect if they get it from the 1% (Roughly) chance of uncrating. Due to it being able to have an unusual effect and being an all class hat it isn't very cheap to buy if you're looking for an unusual version. There is no dishonor if you want this and you are a P2P as this is like the Jesus version of a Gibus.

Now you've learnt the history and background of the Gibus hats. It is time for you to move on Gibus Trainee.

You've seen it said at least once in your TF2 career but what does it mean? The term gibus is commonly used to refer to players wearing the Ghastly/Ghostly gibus but it's not just that. It is also used as an insult to F2Ps and P2Ps for wearing it. Why insult them if they're P2Ps? It's because it's a very easy hat to earn and is free, P2Ps who have a basic knowledge in trading will understand that it's a free hat and isn't worth anything. But what does that have to do with using it as an insult? It's because of F2Ps (If you didn't know what F2P stands for it's an alias for Free-to-play.) F2Ps are commonly seen worn with a gibus and players usually don't respect F2Ps and claim them as "noobs" why would you make heavy cry P2Ps that's just saddue to them being a F2P and F2P are usually notoriously known for being bad (not necessarily all F2Ps are bad) so they label anyone wearing a said hat a gibus as a substitute for the term "noob". So "gibus" is used as an insult to F2Ps and players wearing the free hat but some player wearing a gibus are good but they will still use it as a weakness to try provoke them.

Some Preminium players will hate on P2Ps wearing it as it's worth absolutely nothing compared to their fancy "cool" "super-mega-awesomo-flashy-expensive" unusuals. This also has something to do with hating on Bronies I think they're like brothers but closer and not by law brothers and Furries I think this means people who like wearing lots of fur which I won't go into as I'm not either of those and I don't understand what they are.


Anyways hopefully you've soaked in all of what I said young Gibus trainee as you will now move on to the art of dressing up as a Gibus warrior. There is much to learn young Gibus warrior and you are not ready to face the hatists. But I guarantee you young Gibus warrior that you will be able to defeat them in good time after your training is complete.

All honorable and gibus belt players wear their uniforms correctly or will be cursed by the Gibus Gods. In order to dress up as a Gibus you must have these items.

One you must wear one of the gibus hats. This essential to represent that you're a gibus warrior and aren't afraid of P2P hatists.


Second you must wear the pyrovision goggles (any quality) to hide your eyes and prevent your foes from seeing your fearif you're still a coward and to strike horror to your foes as they can't see your eyes but instead a horrific emotionless player.


Thirdly you must wear the Mercenary badge (earned by playing TF2 for the first time after April 22, 2010) if you don't have it then you will have to replace it with something else which I will tell you. The Mercenary badge shows that you are paid to kill and are a new challenger. P2Ps will think that since you're new that means you can't play but they're wrong as you will strike them down with the strength of a great Gibusi-cane kick.Which you will learn soon


For you people that don't have the Mercenary you can still be a Gibus Warrior (slightly less one but still a warrior) but you can wear either a flair, photo badge or clan pride with pictures of the gibus hat. You can also use the dueling badge instead as it's easy to acquire. If you don't wear these items then you have brought dishonor to your Gibus family and will be striked down by the Gibus Gods for this offense. If you don't own a Mercenary Badge/flair/photo badge/clan pride/dueling badge then you can wear nothing for the third slot and won't bring dishonor to your Gibus family or risk being striked down.

Since you are a Gibus warrior you are forbidden to wear anything that isn't a gibus or pyrovision goggle (with the exception of flairs, photo badges and clan prides with the gibus on it) but there are some items that are forbidden beyond forbidden and will stray you from the path. The Max head and Earbuds. These items are full of sin and tempation to the dark side.The P2P hatist unusual man If you wear this then you are no longer a Gibus warrior and will soon become a hatist brother. Any unusual will give you the same effect with the exception of an unusual gibus which is a blessed unusual. Max, earbuds, unusuals and any non-gibus hats are forbidden in the path of Da Gibus and will stray you away from the path if you wear it. Stay strong and fight the tempetation Gibus warrior.


Now you know how to dress as a Gibus warrior and now you know what is forbidden in the uniform code. Now young Gibus warrior you must learn how to fight.

So you have learned well and reached higher young Gibus trainee and now you are no longer a trainee you are now a Gibus warrior trainee and have earnt your white gibus, congratulations but do not party now as you have much to learn. A Gibus warrior must be able to fight his foes and win. These are some of the moves of a Gibus warrior.

The Gibusi-cane

What is the Gibusi-cane? Pronounced Gi-bu-sy-kane. It is a powerful fighting style that deals a devastating blow to your foes but it is a very hard thing to master as you will die if you cannot pull it off successfully. The Gibusi-cane is a very aggressive style of Gibus-fu and requires pure concentration and calmness in battle.

To perform a successful Gibusi-cane you must attack your foe head on and strike them hard. To survive a Gibusi-cane you must deal blows successfully. If you are using weapons that isn't a sniper rifle or ambassador aim at the body as it is the largest area and deals a high amount of damage to your foe depending on the distance. When you're close and hitting the enemy you will be damaging them and you're on the way to victory. You must keep moving and dodge your foes attacks. If he hits you then you will have lost the fight but don't despair that you're nearly dead but keep pressing on the attacks. Crouching and jumps can sometimes cause the enemy to miss his shot or aim at a weaker area. Predicting the movement of your foe is essential to dodging and survival. Now that you know how to aim and dodge you have perfected the Gibusi-cane.

Gibu-bushi

Gibu-bushi relies on attacking your enemy when their guard is down. You strike when the time is right and the opportunity is good. Don't attack immediately and don't make heaps of noise like the scout or risk your enemy turning around. This is a move that requires stealth and patience but is easy to master young warrior. Observe your surroundings warrior. Look at where enemies usually are and where they come out, hide where they don't pay attention to and keep out of their sight. If you see an enemy approach don't charge out and pump all your bullets into him yet, get out his sight and wait for him to pass and then shoot him. If you haven't been spotted and seen your prey you strike when the time is right. Look at the engineer, his prey is oblivious of him and is focused at something else so the Engineer will have an easier and good time to perform Gibu-bushi. Don't strike young warrior when it's a horde or be killed. If it's a group then always strike from the last guy instead of being infront of the last guy. Strike when it's one or two foes at most or risk being taken down easier. But you will need to aim, shoot and dodge. When you shoot them they might turn so move so that you're out of their sight again by moving around them when they turn or hide. The more you get out of their sight the more they will be vulnerable to your attacks. If you can do this then you have learned young warrior.

Gibus-nagai-renja

Gibus-nagai-renja is for the warriors who like to keep their distance and take out their enemies. This is for snipers and ambassador spies. Gibus-nagai-renja requires good aim and stealth. At least be a little stealthy snipers Stand away from the action, warrior and take out your foes with a perfectly timed bodyshot or a fatal shot to the head. If you want to take out your foes quickly you must learn how to aim at the head. It is small and not the largest area and will be hard to hit but practice and learn to shoot it. A fully-charged headshot can take out most classes compared to a bodyshot and is very powerful. But do not think you are safe because you are out of the action and are hidden. You have foes who will take you down. Spies will target you and will attack when you are scoped in and your guard is down. Keep spychecking and unscope once every few seconds and check around you to prevent them taking you down with a backstab. Other snipers will have just as great visibility as you and will counter you. When you see them don't stand still move to make their shots less accurate. Shoot, unscope and jump so their headshot will be unregistered if they don't predict that you're going to jump. Crouching and jumping during your unscoped movement will make it harder and they will be doing the same. Keep faith and shoot your foe until one of you are dead.

Gibusi Trickery

This time it isn't a fancy name strategy. It's straight forward and easy to do. When your foe sees you and they attack you can trick them into overextending or give yourself an advantage. The feigned retreat sometimes work. You retreat when you have at least 70% health and pretend you are going for health, your foe might think you're nearly dead and will go in for the kill but they will be surprised that you turn around and destroy them. Acting blind when they see you. When you see a enemy as a spy and can't fight him dead on you run and then try to trickstab them. You can figure out how to do trickstabs by searching on YouTube. Trickstabs can be very rewarding and hard to pull off. As a spy the pyro is your nightmare and if you trick them and do a trickstab you pretty much dominate him. As a soldier you can trick the enemy that you're going to run into them but you rocket jump and blast them with rockets. This is effective to airblast happy pyros. Again look up on YouTube on how to rocket jump.

Airblast 101 for Pyros

Now I've moved on away from fancy named moves but to basic game features that new players are unaware of. The airblast is a feature used by the pyro's primary weapon by pressing m2 and is very powerful. You will deplete 20 ammo each time with the exception of using the backburner in which you use 50 ammo per airblastyou use an airblast. An airblast if timed correctly will reflect projectiles in the direction you faced when you reflected it. Airblast when the projectile reaches about the flame reach on your screen and it should reflect. This is very powerful because when you reflect the projectile it will deal damage to them (with the exception of stickybombs) and will deal minicrits. But don't spam the airblast as they will fire after you airblast and you cannot reflect it but instead predict when they will fire and time it. Airblast can push your foes, use this to your advantage to push them into hazards but keep an eye on your ammo as the ammo shares itself with the flame ammo.

Gibus Sense

You should always be aware of your enemies even when they're not around and you're surrounded by your team. Gibus sense is when you predict when an enemy approaches or know someone is a spy. You should be alert to all sounds you hear on the battlefield and check your surroundings. If you see a person that's on your team acting suspisious then there're most likely a spy or a derpy player. If you see a someone suspisious then shoot them at most three point blank shots and if they don't die they're not a spy. Be aware that spies can feign death with the dead ringer and you should listen out for the dead ringer cloak sound. You should also predict when your enemy is going to trickstab or rocket jump. Counter them and you will have masteded the Gibus Sense.

These are some of the moves used by the black-hat Gibus warriors. Now you know some of the techniques and are now a Gold(No yellow :/)-Gibus warrior.

A Gibus warrior doesn't fight will no weapons he uses a variety of weapons in his situations. A black-hat Gibus warrior will know his weapon and its limits. Instead of me listing every weapon and telling you its pros and cons I suggest you look up on the Team Fortress 2 wiki and check out each weapon. Knowing the stats of a weapon and limits is very important for combat. The wiki also contains a lot of good information that I suggest you check out.
Link to the wiki: http://wiki.teamfortress.com/wiki/Main_Page

Read it and you've earnt your green gibus. Now it's time to move on Gibus warrior.

To be a successful Gibus warrior you must learn when to pick your fights and when to run. You may feel the urge to just charge in every opportunity to fight and never run but you should learn when to fight and when to run.

Always pick your fights on targets you can beat. Always take out important classes. Medics should be killed first as they can deploy an ubercharge and cause your team to lose a few good men. Spies should be taken down as they can take out your team from behind and take out snipers who will pick off your team. Don't target the heavy instead of the medic first unless the heavy is severely weaken then you can target the heavy. Also take out engineers as their sentries will prevent your team moving forward and his dispensers will heal his team. Take him out if you can but beware he is protected usually by his sentry and he doesn't dwell too far from his sentry. Remember to sap his buildings. Don't fight classes that overpower yours greatly or suffer a big disadvantage.

You may consider it cowardly to run but in the art of Gibus-fu you must use it sometimes and ignore the feeling to survive. "Rome wasn't built in a day it was built in two days" ~ Gibusocrates. Like the quote says Rome wasn't built in a day but in fact two days. What this actually means after our Gibus scholars studied this quote and discovered what Gibusocrates meant is that you have to run at some point to survive. It is a very wise quote and that we Gibus warriors use in our path of Da Gibus. If you have 1 hp and your enemy has 100% hp it's best to run than to die immediately. Go grab some health and return to battle when you have enough health. If you're out of ammo it's best to run and grab health unless your enemy is a crazy lunatic that will charge in with a melee then you can slamdunk his face with your melee. Run when you are at a severe disadvantage and strike with the moment of surprise.

If you have learned how to do this and are able to do this in your everyday assuming that you play 24/7 gameplay then you've earnt yourself the blue gibus.

As a Gibus warrior you are prone to the most simplest and idiotic mistakes. It is essential that you don't do these things in order to be successful.

#1 Jump off buildings. I've seen multiple new players jump off high buildings and die. Fall damage is enabled, keep an eye on your HP before you jump!

#2 Walk into the flames of a Pyro. I've seen several players walk into the flames of a pyro and they just die. Please don't walk into the flames of an enemy pyro as the flamethrower does severe damage if you stay in it.

#3 Blow yourself up. If you're blasting away and you blow yourself up then maybe you shouldn't do that. Don't walk into your own stickies, grenades, sentries or rockets or suffer damage. As they say "What goes around comes around" ~ Gibandi.

#4 Group up together with a bunch of camping snipers. Don't do that! You'll just provide a higher chance for an enemy to take you out and they'll probably lead you to death. Try to avoid cramping up together or you'll all be taken out by one spy.

#5 Don't except players to be honorable. Most players will ignore the melee honor system or friendly players. They'll shoot you still and try to kill you regardless of your friendly status.

#6 Heal spies. If you heal a spy then you have something in your glasses. Try avoid healing spies by spychecking for then heal. Or pretend to heal then stab him in the back with your saw. Gibusi Trickery right there.

#7 Ignore hazards. If you see a moving saw or a bottomless pit maybe it's not a good idea to walk into it. If you see a pumpkin with some bombs attached to it then it's probably not for show. Avoid these hazards as they will kill you.

#8 Believe he's your teammate. No that's a spy! I've seen players fall for the most obvious of spies and believe they're on your team. Spycheck always or he will get you.

#9 Forget to extinguish your team. If you're a pyro the airblast extinguishes burning teammates, please remember to extinguish them as they might die before they get the health. As a sniper don't think "It's jarate so I throw at enemies only so I mini crit!" No, don't think only that. Throw it at burning teammates to extinguish. Don't be chucking it out randomly as it might come in handy.

#10 W+M1 Pyros. We may be Gibus warriors but we do have standards. Don't hold down W and M1 at your enemies. That's not the best way to win a fight as a pyro. Press M1 when you're close with the flamethrower and use the secondary when they're out of reach. Also try strafing in battle. It helps.

#11 *Beep beep* What's that beeping noise? Defiantly not the mysterious ticking noise that's for sure! Most players will ignore the sound of the mysterious beeping. This beeping is a sentry gun. If you hear a beeping noise in your TF2 gameplay be cautious and look out for the sentry. Don't walk out into its detection.

#12 Minigun is win gun. No it isn't. Please don't hold down m2 and walk on forever as a heavy welding a brass beast or any minigun to be in fact. If you hold down m2 forever then you are an easy target to your enemies.

#13 ÜberCharge?! YES I'M INVINCIBLE! No you're not. You're only invincible momentarily with the medigun. Please don't drop all your training when you receive an ubercharge. Or you will die of course. Also if you're a medic using an ubercharge it won't give you the effects once you switch weapons. So no solo ubercharge medic saw rush.

#14 Pop it. Don't drop it. A couple expression said in the TF2 community to medics. The expression "Pop it, Don't drop it" means if you have an ubercharge and you're about to die then you might as well use it instead of wasting it. Please if you're a medic remember this.

#15 Ignore your behind, sides, below and above you. This is Team Fortress 2 enemies can attack you from the behind, sides, below and above you. Keep an eye in the sky and check around you.

Pictures : TBA To Be Added in this case

A Gibus warrior must understand all of his foes are different and won't fight the same. You must understand your foes and exploit their weaknesses and block their strengths.

Scout:
A fast mobile class that can take you out in a couple of good shots. He's quite a fast guy isn't he? But he is very fragile. A scout with the exception of a Pretty Boy's Pocket Pistol scout will have 125 health max and if you can take him out easily with a couple of good shots. Learn to hit him and follow his movement and predict his next move. He will most likely jump several times to make you miss but aim first then fire.

Scout's secret weapon. The sandman. This weapon gives -15 max health but in addition a ball which can stun players for a period of time depending on distance and thus leaving enemies powerless. Some scouts will pair this weapon with the cleaver which has 100% critical hits on stunned players. A good scout with the sandman will aim where you're going to walk just strafe and it'll probably miss.

Soldier:
A mobile class but walks slow. He has 200 health with the exception of 220 max health with the battalion's backup equipped. He deals a lot of damage with his rockets and can take a few hits. His rocket jumps is what makes him mobile as he can surprise you or catch up with you with a good rocket jump. Always be aware of this foe and dodge his rockets and he is no match for your Gibus-fu.

Pyro:
A fast mobile class that walks fast but not as fast as a scout. thank god The pyro is a demonic beast that is very powerful in close quarters combat. With a 175 max health he/she will take a few good hits to down. His/her flamethrower will devastate you as your health drops to 0 if you stay in his/her flames for long. He/she has weapons that grants him crits on burning players which is a big pain. His airblast is what makes him/her a beast as he/she can make your rockets useless. Keep out of his/her reach and dodge him, avoid getting close as he/she take you out in a second. Fire rockets at hard places for him/her to reflect and don't let him/her push you off cliffs.

Demoman:
What makes me a good demoman? Well demoman you have a stickybomb launcher. The demoman is a slow mobile class but is a very destructive beast with his grenades and his stickybomb launcher. He has 175 health max with exception of 200 for wearing the ali booties. He's a dangerous target up close as his grenades deal high damage. A demoman is also going to be your bane with his stickybomb launcher m1+m2 spam. This is commonly used by players as you deal good damage and can detonate when you need to. This can be countered by getting up close as the time before he can detonate any stickies is quite long. He can set traps with stickies so watch out for corners.

Demoman's secret weapon. The Eyelander. It's a melee longsword with a 37% increase in range, no critical hits and -25 max health. This weapon is usually combined with a splendid shield/chargin' targe for the ability to crit. Don't underestimate this melee as it will get you if you're too close and take it in account that any kills with the eyelander gives 15 more max health and 7.5% faster speed bonus which is capped at 4 kills. To counter simply keep out of reach and dodge their charge with the shield.

Heavy:
The beast with 300hp. This guy carries a minigun and can heal himself with his sandvich. With 300hp he is a tank and will take several good hits to make him fall. His minigun is powerful at close range and will tear away your health but he is very slow so you can escape him easily. He is easy to defeat at close quarters if you keep out of his sights and dodge his shots. But beware that he might have his medic buddy which will give him a max overheal of 450. Keep dodging him and shooting and you will beat this guy.

Engineer:
"Lets do this texas style" Not very "Texas Style" of you engineer to use machines to fight for you. Anyways this guy has 125 health with the exception of 150 with the gunslinger. He carries a shotgun, a secondary and melee. He can build sentries which is his main source of damage and he can build dispensers to heal players. He is easy to take out when he's away from his sentry and isn't very good at close quarters combat with his low health. Be aware of his sentry as that will kill you.

Engineer's secret weapon. The gunslinger. This weapon is a melee and grants +25 max health, no random critical hits and the ability to build a combat sentry called the mini sentry. The mini sentry is weaker in health compared to the normal sentry gun but has a faster build rate, faster fire rate and only costs 100 metal. It's a pain to take out and face but it's no bigge. The strange thing is with the gunslinger is that even though you have no random crits you are always guaranteed a crit on the third consecutive punch. He's still an Engineer and should be easy to take out.

Medic:
"Interesting..." This guy isn't a fighting class he heals. He has a max health of 150 and regenerates health. He is a fast mobile class and carries several types of mediguns which a player can unlock. He is the main source of keeping his team alive with his healing. He's easy to take out but be aware of his melee as medics seem to have a high chance of crits.

Medic's secret weapon. The ubersaw. It's a melee that gives +25% ubercharge on hit with the penalty of -20% slower firing speed. Don't underestimate this weapon as it can give the medic an ubercharge quicker. Keep out of his reach and don't let him touch you.

Sniper:
"Sniping's a good job mate" This guy will usually be seen away from the battlefield. He has 125 health and has a sniper rifle. He will be quite annoying if he can land shots on you from a distance while you're fighting someone else. He's not exactly a close up fighting guy and you can take him out easily. But be aware of jarate and the bushwacka as that is a pain to face.

Sniper's cheaty weapon. The Darwin's Danger Shield. This weapon replaces the secondary slot with a shield that gives +25 max health, +15% bullet resistance and 20% explosive vulnerability. You'll wonder "Hey, why didn't that sniper die when I shot him in the head?" it's because his 15% bullet resistance lowers your bullet damage. This can be a pain but charge up the sniper a little bit more and he'll fall. The Darwin's is usually worn by campers and several P2Ps so other snipers can't quickscope OHKO them. Just charge it up and shoot theim or quickscope and shoot them unscoped.

Spy:
"I am the spy" This guy uses deceit to trick players and kill them. He has 125 health and changes his speed depending on what he is disguises as. He carries a primary which is a revolver that isn't very accurate. He's very easy to take out in close quarters but be aware of his ambassador and trickstabs.

The spy's secret weapons. #1 L 'Etranger is a primary with the stats +40% cloak duration, +15% cloak returned on hit and -20% damage penalty. This weapon is more powerful than you can imagine. A dead ringer spy will last longer and can gain back his cloak from a couple good shots. Dodge his shots and spycheck like normal.
#2 The Enforcer is a primary for the spy with the stats +20% bonus damage undisguised, -20% firing speed and no random critical hits. This guy will usually use this when his cover is blown and is pretty much dead. Even though it does more it's not very accurate to players holding down M1. Remember to dodge and he won't be very successful.
#3 The Diamondback. Oh baby this weapon grants stored crits on a backstab and buildings destroyed with the sapper with the penalty of -15% damage and no random crits. If you see a spy with a glowing gun then he has crits and is most likely using the Diamondback. Luckily for you he has to aim it precisely or he'll waste a shot so dodge and his secret weapon is no match.

Now you have learned the bare basics of every class' strength and weakness. Congratulations you have earned yourself your brown gibus.

A Gibus warrior must know the traditions of a gibus. Always respect your foes before the battle and when you defeat them you taunt and disrespect them all you want. Each time you kill someone in battle you taunt in honor and scream at their dead body. What does taunting even do? It pleases the Gibus gods and will bring you luckmaybe But don't taunt for each kill, the traditions state that you have to taunt at least once in battle.

Also Gibus traditions require you to respect certain types of players. Friendlies and semi-friendlies. Friendlies are people who don't attack their foes but give them gifts and "Love thy other team" are usually killed by players. Most of the traditions say you should show respect and let them live but some say you kill them. I say give them respect and leave them be... unless they kill you of course then by Gibus law you must kill them. The semi-friendlies are people who kill but if you're friendly to them they won't kill you. If they respect you and don't kill you then respect them back and don't kill them. Unless they became a traitor then you kill them.

If you see another Gibus warrior in battle and they are on the other team respect them and taunt after killing them as a sign of dominance. If they taunt when they kill you then they show respect to you and you must taunt back. But if a Gibus warrior is on your team then respect them and help him when you can. If a Gibus warrior on the other team is friendly then you cannot kill them or you will anger the Gibus gods.

If you see someone wearing an unusual then you must taunt after their death and kill them at all costs. The Gibus gods hate these players unless they're nice unusual players who aren't complete hatists and will smile and be happy at your success. They will grant you in the after life a reward greater than what you can imagine in Gibus heaven. The Gibus gods will let you return from the dead sometimes if you're a good Gibus warrior

Remember the traditions and do not break them or risk the chance of being striked down by the Gibus gods and turn into a hatist.

So you have learned young Gibus warrior. I have seen you start off as a young blind confused peer pressured player and now you are a strong independent Gibus warrior who knows his battlefield. You have learned the history of the gibus hats and the term gibus. You have learned how to dress properly, you have learned how to fight, you have studied the weapons. You know when to fight and run, you know what not to do in battle and you know your enemy. You have understood the traditions of a Gibus-fu warrior and folllow it faithfully. I am proud of you so you have earnt yourself the highest rank of Gibus-fu... The Black Gibus. Congratulations and be honored that you have reached higher than most students and now well respected in the Gibus-fu arts. You're ready now to go out and dominate those hatist, go teach other blind players the art of Gibus-fu and remember your training warrior. Never give up and be the best you can.

Thanks to Affenhitze for the support and providing some of the pictures If I didn't provide any pictures you probably would of left already and helping me use SFM.

Update 22/4 ~ I've received some messages regarding about painted gibuses is the weapon of Hatists. It is but only if you paint those max heads and unusuals. I only used "Black Gibus" as a rank in Gibus-fu with the exception of using it in SFM to represent high rank. It doesn't necessarily mean "go spend money and paint gibus black to show you high ranking" it's just a rank. You don't even have to paint it. You're still a high ranking Gibus warrior assuming that you aren't one of the three hatists that just posted saying F2Ps suck and gibus are for noobswithout the so called "Black" gibus. Also if you really have a thing against players with a Gibus/pyrovision goggle then maybe you should play Call of Duty Tryhard Spray and Pray No Hat Edition. ~DaF2P

Update 22/4 #2 ~ Greetings or Grüezi mittenand from Switzerland! I am the secondary contributor to this guide about Gibus-fu and I've noticed the sprung up of hate comments. I don't like hate comments because they're biased. So I've deleted some of the less "friendly" users' comments. Merci. ~Affenhitze

Update 22/4 #3 ~ Grüezi mittenand again. So I've just read some of the most recent hate messages against F2Ps and Gibuses. I'm finding most of them highly amusing and have deleted most of them. Don't worry "elite' hatists your biased comments have been sent to the "Hat" Factory also known as the rubbish bin. ~Affenhitze

Update 23/4 #1 ~ And another batch of anti-gibus/anti-F2P messages have been deleted. ~Affenhitze
