Information
has gloss	(noun) activity of controlling a crowd crowd control
has gloss	eng: Crowd control (also called CC) is the ability of one character, in a massive multiplayer online role-playing game (MMORPG), to limit the number of mobs actively fighting during an encounter. It can also refer to influencing or preventing the abilities or actions of another character(s). Crowd control can be extremely powerful because possible future action trees can be completely eliminated. Thus, the crowd control user (crowd controller or CCer) can control possible outcomes, forcing or controlling the opponent to use an even fewer set of available abilities/actions. Used properly, CC often renders an opponent nearly useless, allowing the CCer to use abilities/actions against an opponent without fear of retaliation or response. Players use crowd control to create offense/defense ratio imbalances between themselves and their opponent(s). Noteworthily, in a group setting, crowd control is often used to reduce the number of opponents that one has to fight at once, which makes combat safer, easier, or possible at all.
lexicalization	eng: Crowd control
subclass of	(noun) the activity of managing or exerting control over something; "the control of the mob by the police was admirable" control
