Game Account Trading Glossary

What does "OG" mean for a game account?

Short for "original" — an account created early, before a major migration or policy change, or one that has never changed hands. On Minecraft specifically, "OG" usually means pre-Microsoft-account-migration (before 2020-2021). On Roblox, it usually means a username or registration date from before 2010. OG status by itself doesn't guarantee value, but it's a prerequisite for most collector-grade accounts.

What is a "smurf" account?

A second, lower-level account a player keeps alongside their main one — often used to play against easier opponents or practice without risking their main rank. Smurf accounts show up cheaply on marketplaces (seen on Mobile Legends and Free Fire listings) precisely because they have little progress and are sold as a fresh starting point rather than a developed collection.

What is a "reroll" account (Genshin Impact)?

A fresh account that's been restarted multiple times specifically to land good 5-star characters from the free early-game pulls, before being sold. Reroll accounts are the entry tier of the Genshin resale market — they're priced by which starting 5-stars landed, not by long-term investment.

What is a "UID," and what does an "OG UID" mean (Free Fire)?

UID is a player's unique account ID number in Free Fire. Accounts registered in the game's early years tend to have shorter, lower-numbered UIDs, and an "OG UID" is treated as an authenticity signal in listings the same way an old registration date functions for Roblox or Minecraft.

What does "Full Max" vs "Rushed" mean (Clash of Clans)?

"Full Max" means every building, hero, and troop upgrade available at the account's current Town Hall level has actually been completed. "Rushed" means the Town Hall level was upgraded ahead of everything else — the account looks advanced by level number but is missing most of the underlying upgrades. Our own price research found a full-max account typically sells for 2-4x more than a rushed account at the identical Town Hall level.

What does "TH" mean (Clash of Clans)?

Town Hall — the core building that gates every other upgrade. Its level (TH13 through TH18 as of September 2026) is the single biggest price factor for a Clash of Clans account.

What does "KT" mean (Clash Royale)?

King Tower level — Clash Royale's equivalent of Town Hall, and the primary progression metric marketplace listings are priced around, alongside trophy count and evolution cards.

What does "C6R5" mean (Genshin Impact)?

Constellation 6 (a character's passive kit fully unlocked via 6 duplicate pulls) combined with Refinement 5 (a weapon's bonus effect maxed via 5 duplicate copies). A single C6R5 character is the single biggest value unit in a Genshin account — our research found this typically represents over $5,000 in original gacha spending on its own.

What does "AR" mean (Genshin Impact)?

Adventure Rank — a Genshin Impact account's overall level, separate from individual character levels or constellations. It gates access to end-game content, raises the daily resin cap, and unlocks multiplayer, so it's a baseline progression stat that sits alongside (not instead of) character-specific value like C6R5.

What is a "whale" account?

An account (or the player behind it) defined by unusually heavy real-money spending, a term used across gacha and collection-based games. On our own Genshin Impact page, "whale account" is a distinct marketplace category from regular/starter accounts, with real listings running from $30 up to $8,995 for the top-end examples.

What is "gacha" (Genshin Impact)?

A monetization system — named after Japanese capsule-toy vending machines — where players spend in-game currency for a randomized chance at a character or weapon. It's the mechanic behind "reroll" accounts (above) and the reason a single C6R5 character can represent thousands of dollars in cumulative pulls.

What is a "pity system" (Genshin Impact)?

A gacha safeguard that guarantees a high-rarity pull after a set number of unsuccessful attempts, so spending outcomes aren't purely random. It's why a reroll account's value depends on exactly which 5-star landed within the free early pulls, rather than on luck being infinite.

What is "Robux" (Roblox)?

Roblox's in-platform currency, spent on items, game passes, and avatar cosmetics. A real Robux balance sitting in an account — not just spent progress — is one of the factors we found that legitimately signals an aged, real account rather than a freshly farmed one.

What is "Mythical Glory" (Mobile Legends)?

The highest rank tier in Mobile Legends' ranked ladder. Listings at or above this rank command a real price premium in the marketplace data we checked.

What is the "Legend League" (Clash of Clans)?

The top competitive tier of Clash of Clans' seasonal ranked ladder — a strong Legend League history is one of the confirmed price factors for higher-value accounts.

What is "Trophy Road" (Clash Royale)?

Clash Royale's standard, permanent progression ladder based on trophy count, distinct from the seasonal Legendary Path (below) that sits above it once a player's trophies reach its ceiling.

What is the "Legendary Path" (Clash Royale)?

Clash Royale's season-long ranked ladder above the standard trophy road — ranking and trophy count here are among the confirmed real price drivers.

What does "Evo" or "evolution cards" mean (Clash Royale)?

Upgraded versions of standard cards with an extra visual effect and gameplay bonus, unlocked through a separate progression track. The number of evolution cards unlocked is one of the stats that actually appears in the highest-priced Clash Royale listings we checked.

What is "Hypercharge" (Brawl Stars)?

A late-game power-up system for individual brawlers, unlocked well after a brawler reaches max Power Level. Brawlers with Hypercharge unlocked are a confirmed factor in higher-priced Brawl Stars listings.

What is "Power Level" (Brawl Stars)?

The upgrade level of an individual brawler, capped at Power Level 11. It's a direct input into most Brawl Stars account listings' pricing, alongside trophy count.

What do "Elite Pass," "Battle Pass," "Brawl Pass," and "Pass Royale" have in common?

These are each game's name for the same mechanic — a paid seasonal track that unlocks exclusive cosmetics for that season only. Across every game we researched, completing these passes every season (rather than skipping some) was one of the most repeated pieces of practical advice for building account value, because most seasonal rewards never return.

What does "MOBA" mean, and why does it matter for Mobile Legends' value?

Multiplayer Online Battle Arena — a genre where two teams compete to destroy the opposing base, using a roster of individually unlocked heroes. Because value is spread across a hero roster plus skins plus rank, Mobile Legends' account-value factors are structurally different from a battle royale like Fortnite or Free Fire, where a single named cosmetic can dominate an account's price.

What is "escrow" in account trading?

A trusted third party (built into marketplaces like Eldorado.gg under names like "TrustShield") that holds a buyer's payment until they've confirmed the account works as described, before releasing funds to the seller. Its absence is exactly what most account-trading scams exploit — direct payment with no escrow means either side can walk away after receiving what they wanted.

What is a "chargeback" scam?

A buyer pays for an account (often with a stolen card), receives the login, and then disputes the charge with their bank weeks later — reversing the payment after the seller has already handed over access. We found this specifically flagged as common in Fortnite and Free Fire account trading.

What is "region lock"?

A restriction, enforced by some games via IP address, SIM card, or app-store country at account creation, that ties an account permanently to whichever region it was first registered in. We found this to be a real, documented risk specifically for Roblox, Genshin Impact, and Free Fire — see our trading safety guide for the per-game breakdown.

What is "Supercell ID"?

An official account-linking system built by Supercell — covering Clash of Clans, Clash Royale, and Brawl Stars — that lets a player move their account between devices and countries safely. Unlike the region-lock risk above, this is explicitly designed by the developer to make device and country changes safe, not a workaround.
