verb.
In either a sequel or patch to an existing video game, this term is used to describe when
the game developers weaken a skill, class, attack, character, item, or any other game element (ab)used by players in an attempt to balance
the game, to the point of rendering said elements
useless.
1. Sonic is WAY too fast in Brawl. They seriously need to nuke that shit.
2. Great...They nuked the most
popular armor in
the game. Now I have to find a way to get rid of all this junk sitting in my shop.
3. Valve nuked the Scout in the Source version of Counter-Strike. It was SO much better in 1.6.
