Yolo
Charging into a position with no support and no way back, usually ending in a fast death and occasionally in a won flank.
Also known as yoloing, yolo rush.
A yolo is a commitment made without information: driving into a cap circle, rushing a corner alone, pushing before the flank has been spotted. It is the most common way a battle is thrown in its first two minutes.
It is also, occasionally, correct. A yolo onto an artillery position or into a collapsing flank at the right second decides battles, and the difference between the two is whether anything is following.
