It's been kind of done in various ways years ago but was way more niche than it is now

cooler name

Too long to type

aaled

if you go by the ddnet discord chat history, only very few people (maybe a clan with the same name) called it "uroboro" and tried to make it mainstream. aled came up later and apparently stuck with people (the origin of that name was explained at some point but it probably stuck because of the map "aled" (?). "unfreeze through freeze"/"utf" was also mentioned by some. I remember calling it "freezehammer" for a while and that name comes up just as early as "uroboros". to sum up: many people had different opinions on how that move is/should be called, aled is the normal/accepted word now.

Kicker explaining where the map name "aled" comes from: https://discord.com/channels/252358080522747904/745926398140612678/844280228016816148

i'd say "aled" is pretty close to "aligned"

Aled is a cool name because it confuses new players

Aled is a skill that should be removed from the game its just cheating

Aled refers to "à l'aide" in french. It means "help". We wrote it aled for fun back then because it looks stupid written that way

?

We wrote it whenever someone failed or was down

when you started to write aled, was it already refering to the move, or independant of it?

4:38PM

ah

4:38PM

do you know how it got the connection with the move?

It was before the move took that name

ah, I guess that is where Kicker's comment is relevant
