2. Uber
Term with literal meaning of "above" in German.
Brought to the mainstream in the early 80's by hardcore American punk band, the Dead Kennedys
when using the term in the anti-Californian government song "California Uber Alles", which
is a take off the German motto of "Deustchland Uber Alles", which translates
to "Germany above all." The term was picked up in their native California stomping grounds
by the typical surfers and "punks" and extended from there to many teenagers,
the majority of which use the term online. That was uber-lame.

Which would be better?
With Master Marksman, I'd have +25 more ranged accuacy and +15 more ranged speed. Nice. Downside - no medic and -10 Ranged Defense.
But with 0400 Rifleman, I'd have improved conceal shot. Downside - -25 accuracy.
Which way should I go?
