alns 

ALNS, or "All Luck No Skill," is an acronym used by salty online gamers. Typically, the acronym is written into the in-game text chat, usually after an opposing player performs an action that they got lucky with, but proceeded to insist that it was pure skill. A natural habitat for this acronym is the 3v3 Rumble mode in Psyonix's Rocket League. A lucky af haymaker off the wall for a point or the opponent just "happens" to have a plunger to pull it in, even after the ball is smacked away by a power hitter. Flying magnet goals too. Plus, there just always happens to be someone sitting in net, ready to block every shot. But the most common trigger for this acronym is the universally loathed "spike goal." If you've ever played Rumble online, you know the feeling.

Orange Guy 1: "Wow dude! Nice spike goal!"
Orange Guy 2: "Ha thanks! That was all skill!"
Blue Guy 1: "Oh please. ALNS."
blue Guy 2: "It takes no skill to do a spike goal."
