I pretty-much agree with everyone else, but I don't think we should refer to "halfies," that are specifically used to chain things together, as "failed speedshots" (but we don't need to name everything like this, as Vexon said).

idk what is with jumping now and naming every single little piece of shit that comes up, first it was powerbounce instead of BOUNCEHOP, ITS A FUCKING BOUNCEHOP WITH A ROCKET DO YOU NEED A SPECIAL NAME? This is just as bad as calling something a "toe-tap" instead of saying that it is a low angled ctap or some shit oh my god what the heck. Honestly should we just call a bounce where you mistimed the scrollwheel a "bounce reset" hurr hurr. Christ people what has gotten in to you.

if youre genuinely asking its because the conversation can go two ways
"what do i do here?" "powerbounce" "thanks"
OR
"what do i do here?" "bouncehop" "i didnt go high enough what do?" "shoot a rocket" "oh"

which one is shorter

I agree with melon. There is a difference between simply bhopping and powerbouncing and the naming difference is very convenient. This is like the 2nd time I saw that argument and it doesn't make sense. It's like saying jogging and sprinting shouldnt have different names, or some other better analogy.

I understand that argument, I just thought it would be a cool way to reference an event. You don't have to use it if you don't care for it.

Not all players know what "bouncehop/rockethop/etc" means, unless we tell them how to do so.

Honestly, I have no problem with whatever name it is, everyone has their own style of calling the techniques, and I call bouncehops as bunnyhop and powerbounce/rockethop as Bounce.

Arguing about jump technique names is pointless and stupid.

Just call whatever you want

I agree with Kendrick here, but I do think it's necessary to have at least 1 standardized name for whatever is actually used.
