Mixups

it can mean multiple things

It usually refers to hitting airdodge/shield as you hit the ground after taking an attack to get up quicker. It is also used less frequently describe things like wavesmashing or RAR (reverse aerial rush) or really anything that is a game mechanic that isn't in the manual/tutorial. It has also been used as a label for specific combos.

I blame meleetards for this. There commentators just say whatever and the half baked masses take it as word of god and it becomes lingo, when it was just nonsense from the drunk ass mother fucker on the mic.

Numpad notation is a universal tool that transcends common language barriers. QCF doesn't really work well in that regard.

games that use number notation use more complex notions, and it passes language barriers
play fighting games, stop posting here "you fucking retard"
pathetic.

Did you just never actually play a game of basketball in your life?

Why are you playing fighting games if you're not a fighting gamefag? Fuck off.

At least it's not fucking retarded Smash Bros terms with their Topsy Toms and Dittos and naming empty jumps after something one player did one time.

>do you see how "quarter circles" takes up more space than "236L"

>mfw smashers call wakeup DPs "mama mias"
pretty sure that other user ITT is a smasher, seems to be dumb enough.

There are no wake up DPs in smash. Where did you hear this?

No I used to play all the time.

>only motivation is to try to be his brother
So you like shitty 1-dimensional """"villains""""?

It's not complete and mostly refers to SF-type games but this is a good glossary.

This is true

>IS THERE A FUCKING DICTIONARY FOR FIGHTING GAMES SOMEWHERE?!
Yes
>Why can't fighting gamefags use normal words to describe things?
What single word would you use to replace each of those?

This might be fun, here's what I imagine they mean based purely on osmosis and literally never having played a fighting game. Anons can tell me how wrong I am:
>mixup
Variation on a combo that subverts or otherwise plays on your opponents expectations or prediction
>zoner
A character that benefits from or had the tools to keep their opponent at a distance or within a sweet spot
>rushdown
an aggressive strategy involving closing the distance with the opponent quickly and staying on top of them
>neutral game
The capability of a character to gain an advantage when the playing field is otherwise even
>footsies
A psychological standoff where both players are waiting for their opponent to initiate an attack, usually accompanied by shuffling back and forth.
