Editing Talk:Magnifying-Glass Damage

Regarding nomenclature: "When your character has left the screen and is being displayed in a tiny hoop, you incur a little bit of damage known as hoop damage. However, once your damage climbs over 150%, you will no longer take damage in this fashion."

== Move, again ==

When the name "hoop damage" was given on the Brawl website, we used it, and kept it despite "magnifying-glass damage" being used in the SSB4 and SSBU tips. However, I don't think this is the correct course of action anymore. I've noticed two things:
* The bonuses in melee relating to the bubble use the term "magnifying glass". So "hoop" is not necessarily the earliest term.
* The Japanese term [https://www.smashbros.com/wii/jp/gamemode/various/various38.html on the Brawl website] is "ルーペダメージ", or '''loupe''' damage. "Loupe" is a word for "a small magnifying glass used by jewelers and watchmakers". But because it doesn't seem English, and Japanese blends L and R, it seems that it was misrecognized as "loop" or "roop", and therefore squished into "hoop".
Therefore, I suggest the Brawl term is dodgy at best, and we should change to the term that three other games agree on. [[User:Toomai|Toomai]] [[User talk:Toomai|Glittershine]] [[Image:Toomai.png|20px|link=User:Toomai/Bin|???]] The Loony 11:52, January 11, 2020 (EST)

'''Support''', I did wonder why we kept the outdated term for so long, especially since people in the community don't seem to use this term either.
