HopCat Victory

Definition: Being the winner/victor with little to no effort, planning or action, usually due to the incompetence and/or failures of those around you. The most common occurrences come when you are losing, but due to incredibly bad luck or decision making on your opponent’s end, you end up winning the game. It is typically used in video games, and more specifically, in the Super Smash Bros. series.
How/when to say it: Usually, it is exclaimed at the end of a game when your opponent loses. Typically, it isn’t used in a sentence like “I got a HopCat victory!” More commonly and fittingly, it is exclaimed at the end of a match.

Context: 3 players alive and on last stock. Player 1 is at 13%, player 2 is at 24% and player 3 is at 147%
Player 1: goes for an edge guard on player 2
Player 2: dies
Player 1: fails to make it back to stage and dies as well
Player 3: “HOPCAT VICTORY!”
