    The opposite of "for the win". Used to describe a situation or thing that is undesirable, whether that situation was caused by the speaker or by someone else. Often shouted when someone is killed in a multiplayer game. Most commonly used by gamers, though it's gaining popularity in general online culture for anything that's disliked.

    I'm grammactically challenged? It's a phrase being used in a future context.

    For The Win = As in, "Going to Win"
    For The Lose = As in, "Going to Lose"

    "Going to Loss"? I think not. STFU

    no For The Loss is a completely different structured sentence than Going to Lose


    so your logic there is flawed

    No it's not. It's the exact opposite of "For The Win" which is structured in the way I defined. It's purpose, structure, and intent are identical to the examples I compared them to.

    Come on now Hulud, I know it's hard to admit that you're wrong sometimes, but you've really no supporting argument.

    naw its not hard for me to admit it, do it all the time actually.

    but how are you gonna say that "Going to lose" is gramatically the same sentence as "For the loss"

    you need a noun. loss is the noun that makes the sentence gramatically correct.

    lose is a verb, so its not gramatically correct.

    now you gtfo kthxbye

    It's a slang. In the end, grammatical corrections are irrelevant to their purpose. The "Win" in FTW is being used as a verb, not a noun. Just like in the line "Going To Win". Therefore, considering that FTL is the EXACT OPPOSITE of FTW, it too is to be used in it's verb form.

    Okay, I'll grant you that. The term "FTL" is not grammatically correct. However, that doesn't change what it actually stands for.

    FTL = For The Lose
