Chinese Firing Squad

A term used when referring to you or your teammates death in a videogame, most often a shooter game. The term is used when all of a sudden, out of nowhere, the enemy unloads sever bullets into you at random and kills you insanely fast without a second to react. This term is often used to convey anger and frustration over the form in which you were just killed. The term derives from the form of execution used in China in the 1900's where a line of 10 to 20 men with rifles would repeatedly shoot one or more targets as a form of execution.
