1''[[http://tagpro.koalabeast.com/ TagPro]]'' by [=LuckySpammer=] is a multiplayer WebGame about balls playing capture the flag. It's a pretty simple game of capture the flag, but actually has a surprising amount of skill involved in managing the momentum of your rolling ball, or knowing how to effectively use the power ups and stage hazards around the map. You can only pop enemy players when they're holding your flag, or when you have the titular Tag-Pro power up.

3Many official leagues also play [=TagPro=] and often do so with incomparable skill.

6!! Tag-Pro contains examples of:
7* ActionBomb: The Rolling Bomb allows you to explode after being touched by an enemy. This also allows you to live once when being popped!
8* BullyingADragon: Using powerups or bombs to piss off an experienced player can lead to him mercilessly juking you without any leniency.
9* ButtMonkey: Players who still accidentally launch themselves into spikes or hindering their flag carrier. Also somewhat applies to players who are bad at controlling.
10* ChekhovsGunman: New players that get more and more experienced later on, but early on are usually TooDumbToLive.
11* AChildShallLeadThem: Often, a newbie may perform a BeginnersLuck boost snipe.
12* EasterEgg: [[spoiler: Once in every 1000 games, instead of a regular match, you will play a zombie like gamemode where you can pop the enemies without the need for Tag-Pro or for them to have a flag.]]
13* EmergencyWeapon: You can knock an opponent into a desired position if either 1. They're AFK of extremely incompetent in handling. 2. You team up with someone else to push him/her.
14* EvenEvilHasStandards: You can't troll your team without being good at it or being too honorable.
15* GravityScrew: The Gravity Well was added to the main game after being used as a joke on April Fools 2014. It pulls balls towards it, and pops them when they touch the gravity well, like spikes.
16* MacGuffin: The flag.
17* MultiDirectionalBarrage: Bombs can launch more than one enemy into their deaths.
18* NitroBoost: Grip, or Juke Juice is this, with the added ability of being able to control your ball most efficiently.
19* PowerUps: There are 3 different power ups that appear at various places on the map, that can give you a bomb shield, increased traction, or the ability to pop other players.
20* QuadDamage: Tag-Pro gives you this ability, allowing you to pop the enemy without them carrying the flag.
21* RocketJump: You can use bombs to your advantage by using them to blast yourself across the map. Of course, you can also use them to blast opponents elsewhere.
22* SpikesOfDoom: Spikes are everywhere. In some maps, you can explode bombs using a switch to blast opponents into spikes!
23* ThereIsNoKillLikeOverkill: The Tagpro powerup in the spawning zone.
24* HolidayMode: [=LuckySpammer=] has a habit of doing this for special holidays.
25* WeakButSkilled: When a newbie somehow pulls off all 3 captures with boosts or catches the UnskilledButStrong pro player off guard with a RocketJump.
