Understanding gaming jargon improves collaboration by helping gamers to convey complex strategies, emotions, and actions quickly. Here is the term you care about:

In gaming, OTK means "One Turn Kill" and "One True King." In fashion, it usually means "Over The Knee."

One Turn Kill

Among gamers, OTK usually means "One Turn Kill." This is when a player defeats an opponent in one turn. For example:

• Toni: How was the game?
• Jo: Too easy. It was an OTK.

An OTK is similar to an FTK ("First Turn Kill").

One True King

Also in a gaming context, OTK stands for "One True King." OTK Media, Inc. is a gaming organization based in Texas (US), which previously competed in WOW (World of Warcraft) touraments and is now focused on online content creation.

In the context of fashion, OTK means "Over The Knee." It is used to refer to long boots that extend above the knee.
