ownage

Gamer's crushing victory

Ownage is internet and gaming slang for total domination or decisive victory over an opponent.

It emerged from "owned"—itself a deliberate misspelling of "owned"—to describe crushing defeats in video games or online arguments: That was pure ownage.

The term celebrates superiority, often with gleeful mockery of the defeated party.
