Gabekeeping 

The action of preventing the rest of European Starcraft II players to make it to the top three spots dominated by The Holy Trinity of the continent in Clem (France), Reynor (Italy) and Serral (Finland). Called this way for being often performed by the Gabekeeper Gabriel "HeroMarine" Segat (Germany) who has erected himself as the ultimate obstacle to surpass in order to reach such accomplishment.
"I'm always here Gabekeeping just like every season." -Gabriel Segat at a winner interview.

"No one else will be able to reach top 3 in EU if Gabe just keeps Gabekeeping like he always does."

"I hope some of the top 3 drops like the last season so a new player can dodge Gabekeeping and reach the season finals with a top 4 finish."

Gatekeeping 

A word used to describe when someone sets a standard/limit on what someone must do to call themselves a 'true fan' of something/someone.
Joe: So what TV shows do you like?
Erin: Well, I'm a huge fan of Doctor Who. I also...
Joe: Doctor Who? I LOVE that show. When did you start watching.
Erin: Back in 2005 when the show was restarted.
Joe: Ah, you see, I was watching the classic series long before then. You can't really call yourself a true fan.

Erin: But I have a ton of the merchandise, and I've met David Tennant...
Joe: Oh, you're a fan definitely but not a proper fan. We've been there since long before the BBC revived the show.
Ted: Dude, stop gatekeeping the show. A fan is a fan. You don't need to set a standard.
