Meaning:

    “憋” means to “suppress” or “hold,” “大”

    means “big,” and “招” means “moves” or “tactics.” Originally used by World of Warcraft game players, “大招” refers to some risky and speculative stragery seldom used by other players. The term is a metaphor often used by game players or Internet industry insiders to mean “keeping some bold new moves in secrecy,” not necessarily speculative. It can also refer to “planning something bold and new.”

    Example:
