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.
