Pretty much what the title says, I’ve been wondering what nicknames people have come up with for the various skills/ults.
My own would be : Bloody balls for the Trackers from the Mechanic. Not entirely sure if it’s original or where it comes from but I just called the “Bloody Shrapnel” skill that at some point not remembering its name. Eventually I just ended up calling the entire ability that because it sounds better and funnier than referring to it as Trackers all the time.
So what are yours?
I call Marcus’ ult Aimbot most of the time because I can’t for the life of me remember it. I also refer to Kaits ult as “U Can’t C me”
You think they will add the five knuckle shuffle to the execution moves?
I will literally melt
Artillery = air strike
Dropshield = bubble shield
I used to call them blue balls 
I guess they would transition into bloody balls eventually.
Del’s balls!? 
Actual footage of Del charging up his ultimate:
I call Bairds Dr-1 Troy as a callback to judgement
You would get a good static electric charge by rubbing those things 
Fun fact, the dropshield in Gears 5 actually works more like the bubble shield in Halo 3, taking an infinite amount of damage until it expires. The dropshield in Reach would only take a limited amount of fire and also heal players in it(to a degree).
I refer to Baird’s DR1 as “Google”.
Used to call Marcus spammers “Skippy” after the kangaroo…
Usually I call that dumb DR-1 Ult “Robo” as it further disappoints me by not attacking targets. Been calling Nomad’s Fear as “El Miedo” due to a hispanic friend of mine, just sounds funnier in spanish to me.
Right, so I have a new one, even if it may not seem particularly original, for the Demo’s ult :
Seriously though, I decided to finish leveling it to 20 today on Frenzy and good lord is it ridiculous. Even with level 2 bleed(18% per tick), once I put some levels into cooldown I had to just drop it on a boss and it would just ready itself up again from the extreme damage. Some GL rockets also would do the trick otherwise if I didn’t have it but once some bosses showed up on wave 8/12 it was basically self renewing boss obliterating ult.
They will give the Swarm blue balls with the bleed. Heh heh.
