The Bruh Guides are a series of short guides to the VideoGame/XCom games created by Website/{{Reddit}} user [=SidewinderSerpent=]. They're characterized by comedic writing, listing of an enemy's abilities, and a trio of rankings: Pain, Tank, and [[TitleDrop Bruh]]. So far, he has done guides for the enemies of VideoGame/XCOMEnemyUnknown, and the enemies, [[CharacterClassSystem character classes]], dark events, and [[QuirkyMinibossSquad Chosen]] of VideoGame/Xcom2, with a list of guides to the items in the works.
The full list can be found on [[https://www.reddit.com/user/SidewinderSerpent/ SidewinderSerpent's user page]].

!!A list of the tropes appearing within the Bruh Guides

* FourTwentyBlazeIt: The Archon King's upgraded Blazing Pinions are referred to as such.

* AnythingThatMoves: Defied. The XCOM 2 guide for the Berserker starts off by saying that they're female, but that that does not make them good waifu material.

* BrokeTheRatingScale: The Alien Hunters guides extend to five levels of Pain, Tank, and Bruh, rather than only three.

* BystanderSyndrome: When fighting Berserkers and Gatekeepers, a good strategy is to stay away and let the enemies kill each other.

* CallForward: The Gatekeeper guide says that they didn't need [[VideoGame/XCOMChimeraSquad a five-year vacation in a Psionic gateway]] to go insane.

* ComedicSociopathy:
** One of the Hunter's weaknesses is listed as Gravity, with the description reading, "Watching people take fall damage is really funny"

* DefeatEqualsExplosion: Any enemy that blows up upon death has the ability referred to as such.

* EveryoneHasStandards: The [[spoiler:Avatar]] guide lists constriction as a viable strategy, following a groan.

* MookHorrorShow: The guides to the XCOM 2 classes are done from the aliens' perspective.

* RunningGag: In the XCOM 2 guides, each ADVENT unit has their weapon named differently.

* ShoutOut:
** The XCOM 2 Muton guide starts with, "EU Mutons that are [[Music/DaftPunk faster, better, stronger]]!"
** The Assassin's Mountain Mist is described as "Tossing a grenade full of [[WesternAnimation/KingOfTheHill pocket sand]] at some enemies"
** Additionally, Bending Reed reads, "After performing a melee attack, Manga/{{Naruto}}[[NinjaRun -run]] [[ScrewThisImOutOfHere outta this place real fast]].
** The Andromedon guide starts with "OH YEAAHH! Here comes the Andromedon, [[ThereWasADoor busting through a brick wall to get at your soldiers]]!", just like the Kool-Aid Man.

* SnakesAreSexy: Defied. [=SidewinderSerpent=] starts the Viper guide with "Okay, we get it. SnakesAreSexy", then later, in regards to the Crush and Bind so often depicted by the greater fandom as seductive, he says, "I need to remind you this kills people"

* SuspiciouslySpecificDenial: The Viper King guide says, "No, they are not wielding a blue magnetic Bolt Caster".

* TierInducedScrappy: Suppression. Expect it to get the short end of the stick whenever it appears in a guide.

* TitleDrop: The Chosens' random weaknesses and perks are called [[VideoGame/XCOMEnemyUnknown Enemy Unknown]].

* VideoGameFlamethrowersSuck: Said word-for-word in the Purifier guide, alongside a Pain of one half and a Bruh of one.

* WalkingSpoiler: The [[spoiler:Avatar]] guide is spoilered because of its status as one.

* WeakTurretGun: The turrets' Bruh is listed as a whopping one half.

* WeHaveReserves: The Chosens' Summon abilities say, "Summon some fucking idiots to go die"
