The Devin Effect

The Devin Effect is a term used in the League of Legends community given to a specific circumstance in which a game can be lost due to a disproportional amount of kills given to one player. Although a team can technically be ahead in kills, if the majority of the kills have been given to one specific champion, they will ultimately lose the game for the rest of the team due to the lack of spreading of gold, kills, assists, and resources. If said champion were to die during a team fight, the rest of the team would stand no chance against the opposing team.

Devin got all the kills during the first half of the game, so the rest of us were left at level 12 without upgraded boots and I began to reverse snowball. We lost the game because of the Devin Effect.

dumb effect

When your peers attempt to communicate information, but do so in such a convoluted and confusing manner that you actually become dumber by interacting with them.

Afflicted by the dumb effect, Sydney finds it increasingly difficult to engage in everyday intellectual conversation with other adults outside of work.

The Fredy Effect

The result of being coerced into “1 to 2” alcoholic beverages after a night at work. These 1 or 2 beverages then become an evening/morning of intense intoxication with drug usage. This effect will indefinitely result in multiple “afters” and wanting to die or quit your job the next morning.

I got hit with The Fredy Effect last night. I was 2 hours late to work and I want to die.
