frag

To frag someone is to one-shot them in a video game, particularly as Zendaya in Overwatch. The origin of the term comes from the children's TV show 'Fraggle Rock', which was met with major controversy recently as it was revealed that the puppets were in fact expert assassins trapped inside an enclosure for entertainment purposes. They escaped this confinement eventually in 1987, by one-shotting their prison guards (or "camera-men") with rocks, which was very apt.

After the massacre of 1987, Fraggle Rock was discontinued with the explanation only resurfacing in recent years, causing the viral internet meme called 'fragging'. This eventually found traction in gamer slang and then in Overwatch forums and chats.

"Damn did you see that sick frag?"
