Description
In the realm of fighting games, 'Hood Flawless' or 'Hood Perfect' refers to a scenario where a player wins a match without receiving any damage from their opponent, not necessarily due to skillful evasion or defense, but because the opponent did not attempt to attack. This situation often arises when an opponent is either inexperienced, distracted, or intentionally avoids attacking. While a traditional 'Flawless Victory' highlights a player's defensive and offensive capabilities, a 'Hood Flawless' win is more about the opponent's inactivity. The term carries a tone of mockery and can be seen as a backhanded compliment, highlighting the ease of the victory rather than the skill involved.
Examples
- In a local fighting game tournament, Player A wins a match without taking any damage because Player B, a newcomer, is still learning the controls and fails to execute any attacks.
- During an online ranked match, Player X secures a 'Hood Flawless' victory as Player Y's controller disconnects, leaving Player Y unable to fight back.
Additional Information
- The term 'Hood Flawless' is often used humorously within the fighting game community.
- It is distinct from a traditional 'Flawless Victory,' which showcases a player's prowess in both offense and defense.
