A nerf refers to a change in a video game that reduces the strength or effectiveness of a character, weapon, ability, or feature. This adjustment is typically made to improve the balance of the game, especially when certain elements are considered too powerful and disrupt fair gameplay. For instance, if a weapon is too strong and makes the game unfair, it might receive a nerf to make it less effective. While nerfs are meant to create a more balanced experience, they can frustrate players who preferred the stronger version of the element.

It is used to describe weakening a game mechanic, ability, or character to reduce its effectiveness, often because it was overpowered or unhealthy for competitive balance. Players typically complain or celebrate nerfs when developers release patch notes, especially if their favorite character gets hit or a frustrating tactic finally gets fixed. The term originated in the late 1990s from the Nerf brand of foam toys, referencing the idea of making something softer or less dangerous, and was popularized by "Ultima Online" and later "World of Warcraft" communities.
