Nerf
,no edit summary
The word '''nerf''' is an adapted word from the MMO community, much like the MMO community adapted the word "zerging" from "Zerg rush". The meaning usually refers to changes in a patch where a class, race or other classification of the game has been lowered quality or efficiency. It could also mean that the price for something used has increased.
In some cases, "nerfed" can also refer to opponent components, such as a "boss" in an MMO.
For StarCraft, the term "nerfed" would be used if a unit got the production cost lowered or their statistical numbers in terms of [[HP]] or damage lowered.
The opposite of nerfing is [[buff]]ing.
