Nerf Bat

<N>
1. Liternally, it is a soft, foam-rubber bat, produced by Nerf(c), a subsidiary of Hasbro(C) Inc. Notoriously better at wounding the victim's pride than causing actual injury.

<N, Fig.>
2. Based on def. 1 above, "Nerf Bat" has come to refer to the implement that a game developer wields when reducing the effectiveness of a class in a computer game, usually an MMORPG. This process is also known as "Nerfing." See NERF for more info.

1. Ow! That...err...didn't hurt that much, but why did you hit me with that nerf bat?

2. This class was almost fun until they beat it to death with the nerf bat!

ninja nerf

The act of nerfing something without any forewarning.

While most nerfs are announced that they will happen before they actually happen, a ninja nerf is simply done, leaving the players to discover, usually being completely screwed over at the same time due to being surprised.

Player A: C'mon, let's go kill that boss. I'll get my shifter tank.

Player B: Ok, let's go. Those shifter tanks get like 2000 hp, so we should be fine.

*Player A and B get to the Boss*

Player A: omfg Wtf!? I've only got 800 hp!? *dies*

Player B: Oh Fuck... *dies*

Player A: Well wtf... I had 2000 hp yesterday... I didn't see anything about a nerf on the forums, did you?

Player B: Nope. Must have been a ninja nerf.
