      I get what you mean, but let's say there's more essential stuff in there which you need to learn what it is in order to do or just to understand the game in a deeper level.
      I personally don't know what the first two you mentioned mean, and god like has been used in pretty much every game. Anyways, I suppose you can suggest stuff, I'm just not sure how would that enrich the dictionary there.

      "Sex Kick - A certain style of aerial attack in Smash Bros. where the character politely sticks their leg out and holds that pose for a long amount of time. Sex kicks have very fast startup and a huge amount of active frames, making them great neutral tools for approaching, since a hitbox is basically always active as you're flying through the air."

    Infil is a hero. His KI guide was an amazing achievement and this is a tremendous piece of work. The man loves fighting games and the FGC and his contributions to the KI forums over the years just elevated the knowledge of anyone reading them.

    i hope more unique smash terms come around, we have a lot of really funny ones that aren’t on there right now.
    also the sex kick is called the sex kick because it’s a very common animation for a kick that’s used for smash that “starts off hard and ends soft” hence the name sex kick.
    also doctor mario has a reverse sex kick and i think that’s funny :)

    Max is 100% on point with his sports analogy here, even the regional name calling or naming of technique after players. here is some examples that make no sense if you don't play Hockey:
    -Icing
    -boarding penalty
    -forecheck
    -Savardian Spinorama
    -Datsukyan Toedrag
    -The "Lacrosse" or "Michigan"
    -playing the "Zone"
    -Butterfly position
    - 1-3-1, 1-2-2, 2-2-1, 1-4
    -"Sean Avery" Penalty
    -Diving
    -Gretzky's office
    -Blue paint
    -Dump'n chase
    -Playing the man
    etc. etc.

    If it's Mexican, it does a shitload of damage.
    If it's Canadian, it does no fucking damage.
    If it's American, it was an accident, but it worked.
    If it's Korean or Japanese, it's frame perfect or mathematically insane technique.
    These are universal gaming terms, not just fighting games.

      Well there were popular af back in the days. It's just one genre overtook another due to people moving from one to another. Yes I see your point but it's more so a natural progression thing imo.

  • @TigerBears11

    So glad someone has made something like this. Fighting games feel completely inaccessible when so many guides throw out random terms and expect everyone to know exactly what it all means.
