Backshot Barry
A term used in Counter-Strike's superior video game counterpart "Valorant". This playstyle is often adopted by players lacking confidence or by cypher/sova mains who are inherently prone to baiting.
The essense of this playstyle is to instalock the best entry agent in the game "Jett" and playing away from the spike. The farther you are, the higher the likelihood of getting kills.
The first half of the name comes from getting a gigachad percent of your kills by shooting enemies in the back running towards spike or by enemies not expecting jett to be in absurdely stupid positions/angles.
The most intricate part of this style is convincing teammates you are actually contributing and not playing a 4v5. This is, however, easily done by pointing to the scoreboard and keeping an aura of self-delusional superiority around yourself.
This playstyle has other derivatives: Sideshot Sally, Rez me Ricky and NoMic Mickey.

I can understand Backshot Barry'ing in a competitive games, but Kenny's been Barrying in quick play in a 5-stack game with his friends lately. I hope he gets his confidence back.
