Guns Of Icarus Slang
Commodore Phoenix:
So I was playing with this guy who was playing squid he was called "Pakkela" and he said after the game that he was "Ganking" our ships and I was confused as to what this means and even after being told what it means I was still confused, so I decided to make a thread to discuss Slang in this game and the meaning of the Slang
Grogmiester:
ganking may be a slang term taking from games such as dota 2 and lol.
To repeatedly kill a virtual game character after they get resurrected aka spawn rape in WoW.
Or when one high level player does the same action to a player way below his or her own level
HamsterIV:
My favorite GOI slang is:
Gungineer - an engineer who is shooting a gun for most of the match but can be relied upon for emergency repairs.
The Trifecta - getting three guns shooting on one target
Boinking - ramming with the intent of moving an enemies guns out of their fire arc.
Helium uppercut or Shoryuken - Using helium while under an enemy ship to increase the damage dealt by a ram.
Kiting - flying backwards with long range guns to prolong the length of time you ship can shoot an enemy before it can shoot back.
Lifting out/in - using helium/chutevent to get out of an enemies guns to give your engineer time to repair.
N-Sunderland:
Gatflak: the gatling/flak combo, usually on the Pyramidion
Blenderfish: a Goldfish with a carronade on the front
Keon:
Metamideon: A gatflac pyra.
Raspberries: The enemy's gate armor is down
Zill: Slang for OP. :P
