Did you hear that Henley got Nerfed?? It's probably because he handled the Parker account so poorly.

Get the nerfmug. A line that the character D.Va says in overwatch when she uses her ultimate and causes everybody to run for cover. D.Va's ultimate is self destruct and everybody in a certain radius gets dealt a HUGE amount of damage.
D.Va: Nerf this! {self and opponents}
Opponents: OH SHIT RUN FOR FUCKING COVER!!

Get the Nerf This!mug. Usually in first person shooters and RPGs, when game developers think a weapon is far too powerful, and threatens the stability of the game, and weakens the aspects of that power drmatically to rebalance it.
When diablo 2 came out, everyone played either a necromancer or a barbarian. Now necromancers is nerfed to a point where its intolerably difficult to duel against other players without people just dodging your summoned minions and shove a axe into your face.

Get the nerfmug. Nerfs are grumpy, antlered herbivores, resembling yaks, raised on many planets, including Alderaan, Gestron and Corellia, for their milk and meat. Herders of the beasts are well known for being as scruffy looking and surly as their livestock, and to be called a "nerf herder" (as Han Solo is by Princess Leia) is considered a strong insult.
"Why you stuck-up, half-witted, scruffy-looking nerf herder!"
