Spawn killing
What is spawn killing? Killing players the moment they respawn, spawn camping, and why multiplayer games add spawn protection.
Spawn killing means killing other players at their spawn point, often right after they come back into the game. Spawn camping is the tactic behind it: guarding the enemy team’s spawn area to catch them as they appear.
