What is Ender?
1.
1. (n, proper, lit.) - refers to Ender Wiggin, a character in a series of science-fiction novels by Orson Scott-Card. This character was famous for his instant mastery of any game he could learn to play, and also for being a brilliant strategist/leader, so much so that it was very annoying to others.
2a. (n, slang, games) - Someone (usually a new player) who learns a game rapidly and seems to dominate the AI/opponents naturally. Also refers to a new player who always seems to end up as the leader or final decision-maker in team efforts, even when not the official leader of the team.
2b. (n, slang, games) - Refers to when a player suddenly comes up with a desperate strategy (sometimes brilliant, but often just odd) which leads to an easy win, usally against stacked odds. As is the case with many online real-time-strategy and first-person-shooter videogames, this usually involves cheap or dirty tactics which frustrate the other players.

3a. (n, slang, games) - Refers to a player who is the complete opposite of the type described above; i.e. the player is absolutely horrible at videogames, or leading a team.

3b. (n, slang, games) - Situation where a player panics, making a poor decision that costs him or his team the game. Basically, the opposite of the situation in 2b.
