When it's much more of a Set Up? If you use Aim to Aim, you're Aiming, if you use Build up to build Up, you're building up, but if you use Follow up as a Follow up, you're stupid.

Because Set-up doesn't have good initials.

In order to put good use to Follow Up, you have to quickly follow it up with something?

Well, if you really have to have Tourette's about it, we could call it "Pump Up", it would be equally scatological and the FCC wouldn't have to come and burn down your house. >_>

But if you use that logic, you'd also have to call "Power of the Phoenix" "Aggro everything on the map and go afk" because in order to put good use to it, you have to kill somebody first.

Because whatever developer designed it figured nobody would understand what it was if he called it Riposte.

I've always wondered why it wasn't called Feint.

It's just one of those things you just don't ask questions about I guess.
