I propose merging Nuke (video games) into Glossary of video game terms, as the former is more of a dictionary definition than an article, and I don't see a way to improve it, so it would do better to be included in our game glossary article.

Support Seems extremely undercooked and a better fit for the glossary. ᴢxᴄᴠʙɴᴍ (ᴛ) 14:06, 5 September 2023 (UTC)Reply[reply]
support as well. the only real thing i think could maybe probably keep it separate would be the 1.5 definitions
so something like "A high-damage skill capable of defeating one or more enemies in one use, or the act of using any such skill." could work cogsan • (give me attention) • (see my deeds) 14:26, 5 September 2023 (UTC)Reply[reply]
Support, that article is indeed a definition with examples. I don't see immediate sigcov, but it's been a common term for decades, so I wouldn't be surprised if someone could dig something up someonday. Could leave ((r with possibilities)) on the redirect. —siroχo 04:01, 6 September 2023 (UTC)Reply[reply]

The term “pushing” as used in (but not limited to) battle royale games such as Fortnite, where a group of opposing enemies forces another group to fight in combat. E.g. “They’re pushing.” Any revision of my explanation worth adding to mine could be used in order to make the term more understood. 206.255.21.90 (talk) 18:08, 8 December 2023 (UTC)Reply[reply]
while t-bagging is typically used as a taunt, it is also sometimes used as a form of communication, the most common message being "I'm freindly, don't kill me" or, "yes" Metalclaw8045 (talk) 21:49, 9 January 2024 (UTC)Reply[reply]
"Dub" is an abbreviation of the letter W, and since the W can refer to a victory, it is often used to refer to winning in a game. NoobieMaxy (talk) 06:29, 25 January 2024 (UTC)Reply[reply]
Must be made know that despite its size, this list is not comprehensive[edit]
I propose that we mention that this list is not a comprehensive list of all gamer terms, and include the fact that game slang, much like slang or jargon in general, varies from game to game, and there are more specific slang terms that are used in some games that aren't used in any other game.
