collateral benefit

a military act with an unintended favorable consequence
every landmine the invaders laid turned out to be duds which were eventually harvested, recycled, monetized and repurposed by the oppressed victims into arms they were able to fashion into

The area of land bombed by their adversary was host to an invasive species that threatened the livestock of the entire region providing a collateral benefit to the survivors in the aftermath.

Collateral Damage

Getting multiple kills with a single bullet since the bullet passed through one enemy and hit the other(s). Originated from the military term for unintended consequences of military operations.

In some shooters, this is either completely impossible or only possible under certain circumstances. For example, you can only get collateral kills in Splatoon 2 with charger-class weapons.
In some shooters, certain weapons might still qualify for collateral damage despite having splash damage. For example, the Spartan Laser in Halo qualifies for collateral damage because the laser can pierce through players.

Alternatives: Pierce Kills, Penetration Kills, Chain Kills, One-Bullet Combos, X Birds with One Stone/Bullet
Shortened: Collateral
(from a YouTube video)
Oh, baby a triple! Oh yeah! And that was my triple collateral in Free-For-All.

(custom example)
Would you believe that some player with a charger got insane collateral damage on us?! One shot with the E-Liter, and my team was wiped. We lost that Turf War HARD.

Collateral

Using a watch to make sure you pay your debt. Losing that watch if you dont.
