Bomb Glide/Flight
A move performed by Lockjaw. This move is performed by dropping off a ledge, or in low-gravity space arenas and laying down Lockjaws three bombs in rapid succession. As you drop the third, you will be propeled upward. This move is used to access certain sniping spots and higher up areas from afar, and in space, this move serves as a evasive maneuver.

D/C

Double Bomb Jump

Imp.
Simply short for imperialist.

Imper.
One who uses an Imp for his/her main weapon.

Imping
The art of using the Imp.

Lag
Lag is a very annoying and unwanted process involving two or more DS's not being in perfect sync. When you play online, you can't expect it to be perfect. Sometimes when you do something, the enemy's DS won't register it until moments later. Could be anywhere between half a second or three seconds. You have to predict what the enemy would do, see sniping.

Missile Jump
A Missile Jump is when you aim your cross hair at the ground, shoot a missile (Charged or non charged) then jump off of the push the missile gave you. This can be used to reach many places faster.

Missile Push
A technique used to take advantage of most wall or Shadow World glitches. To perform this technique, aim your cannon at the ground at about 45 degrees and prepare a charge missile. While walking backwards against the wall, release the missile and you should be pushed through. (This can also be done with a Charged Magmaul or Battle Hammer shot)

Shadow Freeze
There are two kinds of Shadow Freeze, Shadow Freeze itself, and Angle Freeze.

Shadow Freeze
Shadow Freeze is a term that refers to when some one uses the invisible freeze lines that come out from the top and bottom for Noxus's gun when freezing someone. When someone shadow freezes, the aim at the ground and freeze. The lines that come out from the top and bottom of the gun shoot out and if they hit some when, they are frozen.

Angle Freeze
Angle Freeze is basically Shadow Freezing, but instead of aiming at the ground and having the lines hit some one, you slant your aim, so that the lines go up diagonally. This lets the freezer freeze people above, or below them.

SIFing
Simply put, this is a maneuver where you freeze your opponent and then head shot them with the Imperialist.

Shadow World
Shadow World is a term that refers to an area outside or the opposite of most of the 26 arenas. When outside an arena, there is often darkness surrounding and one wrong step means death. Players take advantage of these glitches to hide in walls and stalk around the arena in the opposite world of the arena, therefore rendered invisible except for a telltale shadow on the ground.
