Not quite. But it did link to Tactical Rock–Paper–Scissors, which is more or less what I was looking for.
I'm looking for a video game-based trope. Something along the lines of "Weapon X hurts Enemy Type A, but is basically useless against Enemy Type B. For Enemy Type B, use Weapon Y." Almost like a Simon-Says of enemy-killing. Does that help at all?
