Refers to someone or something that deals
high amounts of damage but had a very weak defense or health. Often a term for games.
The best way to fully embrace being a
glass cannon is to be very careful when you attack. Wait for an opening in which you are guaranteed a safe or almost safe
hit to be as useful as possible.
John is a glass cannon, he got into a fight and with one
hit gave someone a bloody nose, but he started
crying the second he was
hit once.
