+back

A term used by the Quake competitive community. It basically means to retreat and play on the defensive, rather than rush forward and combat the enemy. It comes from the command "+back" which is used to move the player backwards.

The antonym to this term is +forward

Player 1 took a beating after that fight so he needs to +back until he can get some health and armor.
