- Lav is Ulting on a stream in the middle of a debate.
When a streamer (especially a female) breaks out in tears on stream to garner the sympathy of the viewers and instantly disarm adversaries because the optics are so overwhlemingly bad to continue the disagreement that it renders logic and reason moot. This originates from MOBA games where an ultimate ability (almost always shortened to ult) is the strongest move available to a given character. A streamer's crying is their "ult" because it is the most persuasive action available to them in front of an audience. Also commonly, "ulting" or "using ult"
Oh god, she's ulting. This debate is pretty much over now.
