Today, I was shocked when I saw the notes for the Champions patch update.
On the surface it looked like your everyday update, with your usual events and bugfixes.
But then my eye caught something horrible, something so awful that any Cannoneer would be unable to do anything else than lie in a corner, sobbing.

Nexon has changed the skillname of Big Huge Gigantic Rocket into Cannon of Mass Destruction!

Now I would like to see this skillname changed back, as do many of my fellow Cannoneers as I would imagine.
I have made a few points on which you might be able to see how I could be so appalled by this seemingly subtle, but very important change:

1) It is big
2) it is huge
3) it is gigantic
4) it is a rocket
5) it is not in fact, a cannon

Now there is a point to be made for the other side, since there are some minor cases of mass destruction occuring, but I do not feel like it's enough to make up for the change in name.
If this hasn't convinced you yet, here is an accurate representatation made by PreSworded of Windia of how the skill should look like, if it were to stay true to its new name: imagehttps://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/251958040289476609/271230534028361738/cannon.png

    You are a cannoneer. You have a cannon. You shoot a big honkin rocket that causes destruction on a mass scale.

    I don't see the problem.

    Also worth noting is that in the original patch notes for 5th jobs, it was called Cannon of Mass Destruction. It was bound to be changed ingame eventually.
