a. (verb) To obtain something good, especially in a manner that is fortunate and/or timely.

b. (noun) Something obtained in this manner.


Coined by players of the popular TCG (Trading Card Game) Magic: The Gathering, the term is derived from the phrase "might as well" and originally applied only to cards topdecked exactly when most needed. It has since expanded in meaning to include pretty much anything lucky, unexpected, though the primary meaning remains the same.

Usually used only by TCG players, especially Magic players.

A few weeks ago, no one had “cheugy” in their vocabulary . Now everything is saturated with the word. It’s in our heads. It’s in our homes. Everyone is asking: “Am I cheugy? Am I a basic ass bitch? Am I GUILTY of being cheugy?”

The proliferation of cheugy in the mainstream discourse can only be attributed to one source: mental terror. It’s an orchestrated psychological trap to make you question your tastes and interests in the eyes of others.

You are not a cheug. YOU’RE PERFECT!!!!

It is very suspicious that the cheugy mascot is a Minion, a literal cyclops, a deformed
yellow panopticon in overalls ... do not let the all-seeing eye to control you. Be vigilant. Resist cheugy psyops.

Originally derived from the expression "might as well", as in "you might as well draw a disenchant". It was then shortened through excessive use to "mise" and used in reference to a lucky draw: "I mised a disenchant." Now it is simply used to describe anything good.

verb - "to obtain something that is unusually great or unexpected, but still pretty good."
noun - "something unusually great or unexpected, but still pretty good"

A short version of the expression "Might as well."

to obtain, particularly in a very fortunate way or at a fortunate time.
