6.0BRAINROT SCOREOP / Overpowered Describing a character, weapon, strategy, or option that is disproportionately strong compared to its alternatives, breaking a game's intended competitive balance — a distinct meaning from the unrelated slang term "Op" (opposition/opponent), which happens to share the same three-letter abbreviation.
