rotate
What does rotate mean?
The enemy commits to A, so the defenders holding B rotate over to help. It's the constant repositioning that keeps a defense flexible: read where the pressure is, move to meet it. Rotate too early and you fall for a fake; too late and the site's gone.
"They're hitting A hard, rotate now, I can't hold it alone."
Origin
Counter-Strike / tactical shooter movement slang.
