Comcast Gambit 

The untimely and prolonged malfunction of an internet connection resulting in great inconvenience, such as the forfeiture of an online chess match/tournament. Dubbed by the chess master and Youtube personality Jerry (ChessNetwork).

This phrase is a merging of two terms: the terrible internet provider (Comcast) with the chess term (gambit), a tactical and deliberate sacrifice of a chess piece. However, the Comcast Gambit is unique from all others in that it fails to be either voluntary or tactical.
1. Marcellus, with the black pieces, found himself in a superior position with a time advantage in a blitz chess match. To his opponent's relief, the Comcast Gambit was then played, resulting in an immediate win for white.

D2 gambit is a combination of PVE and PVP gamemodes in D2, in which players kill ads to bank motes. Certain increments of motes summon blockers on the other side, which prevent the opposing team from baking motes. A total of 100 banked motes summons the Primeval. The first team to kill their Primeval wins the game.
