Free for all dodgeball / teamless dodgeball

A buzz word being used to refer to creators and influencers forming or encouraging unhealthy relationships with their fans. Usually used in the context of young audiences feeling they have a relationship with the influencer due to the huge amount of the influencer’s content they consume. The influencer in question, however, is unaware of the fan’s existence other than the general knowledge of having fans. Common examples include Dream and his stans. These relationships are exacerbated by the influencers confirming they have more than a creator-to-viewer relationship.

The word is circulating due to various YouTube essays about the phenomenon using the word, and therefore people who enjoy complaining about influencers repeating what they heard in the video in any comments section they can find.

A dodgeball move very common in Canada but almost unheard of in other parts of the world. It consists of one teammate throwing a lob ball up into the air. While the opponent has his hands in the air to catch the ball another teammate grabs the opponents ball. He then begins to suck the opponents balls. The opponent falls over in surprise and is left open to be attacked as he lies on the ground.
