Nerf is a line of toys, usually made of soft foam. They are safe for children to play with. Nerf footballs are soft foam so they don't hurt whe thrown at a child. Nerf swords are foam sticks that might sting if hit hard enough, but will not break bones. Nerf makes guns that shoot foam darts. You get the idea.

When something gets Nerfed, it means it is softened or weakerned. The strength or power of the item gets rematically reduced. The Terracknors were nerfed a long time ago, their attack rate was dramatically reduced. General Hale is a recent example. The Nuclear Bomba attack with Hale was turned way down, so that people could not crush bases 3x the attacker's level.
