English term or phrase: (to) debuff
Definition from Cyber Definitions:
Debuff means Harmful Effect On A Character in an online gaming context. A debuffis an effect placed on a character that negatively impacts their statistics and characteristics. Debuff's can be inflicted by the system or by opposing players.

Example sentence(s):
  • After reaching 3 debuffs, both Players and Parties cannot gain additional debuffs until at least one of their current debuffs expires. The Seven
  • Unless otherwise stated, debuffs cannot stack with themselves, with repeated applications upon the same target simply causing the debuff duration to reset and not incurring increased effectiveness. All debuffs are either temporary or conditional and do not persist after the affected target's death. League of Legends Wiki
  • Blue Ban is a tad weaker than his counterparts, and is more a debuffer than an actual fighter. His Critical Pierce skill is very strong, especially against tanks, but that’s pretty much all he offers aside from his passive debuff, which can be easily countered. BlueStacks

(causar ou provocar) efeitos negativos


Definition from own experience or research:
Aplicado aos videojogos, o termo "BUFF" ("polir" ou "dar lustre a") através do qual se deriva "DEBUFF" implica uma melhoria ou criação de certos atributos, características, ou efeitos positivos resultante de um factor interno ou externo -- habitualmente um feitiço, habilidade, item, ou até mesmo atualizações do jogo no qual este se insere.
Por sua vez, DEBUFF, que resulta dos mesmos factores que BUFF -- o seu oposto relativo -- implica uma pioria ou perda temporária (para piorias ou perdas "permanentes", consultar "NERF") de certos atributos, características ou efeitos outrora positivos ou neutros -- tendo um papel semelhante a e podendo também ser nomeado de penalidade, malefício ou maldição, por assim dizer.

"[CHARACTER X]'s main duty is to debuff his/her opponents."
"A função principal de [PERSONAGEM X] é [causar, provocar ou gerar*] efeitos negativos [aos/nos] seus adversários."
