Valorant Effort

When you're playing a game and someone makes an effort but the effort was actually quite mediocre or straight up bad so instead of being a valiant effort it must be concluded it was a Valorant Effort

Opposite of a "valiant effort"

"Go B go B, you got this bro"
*horrible peek and loses instantly*
"eh, it was a Valorant Effort.."

return on effort employed

The KPi that defined whether or not a task or energy applied to it is really worth the bother.

Rebecca: “oh lord! There’s a Lion heading towards us”
Leon: “oh cripes, we should LITERALLY RUN AS FAST AS HUMANLY POSSIBLE , in order to make sure we are in front of all these other Safari tourists”
Rebecca: “er, no. It’s hot. I don’t need to be the fastest. I just need to be faster than 1 or 2 of them.
And as most of them ate lunch and I only had a date; I fancy my chances”
Leon: “oh gosh; you’re right as usual Honey - there was me always wanting to be the best at everything I do (inc. running from Lions) but actually it’s so hot, the “return on effort employed” or ROEE just isn’t there”
Rebecca: “thank the lord; finally you get it (see also 20:80).
Leon: “yes - I coined that one too”

best effort

when you try to do everything even though it is almost impossible;
pushing someone to do some thing when you know it is hard for them

best effort when you do your deliverables
