Skillz are gained through experience and practice, the combined sum of which make one 1337.

Examples of skillz (with respect to gaming) particularly in Urban Terror:

Headshots 75% of the time
Mastering those trick jumps
Playing the counter-sniper role without night vision goggles
Having your kill-to-death ratio be undefined
Being able to hold your own, no matter which weapon you pick
Hand grenades my friend, hand grenades
Taking out that TKer before he lays waste to your team.

It should also be mentioned that skillz are evasive little bastards, often fleeing at critical moments such as clanmatches, or after you've talked some serious smack. There are of course many more skillz, and the aforementioned ones are certainly not enough to make you 1337 by themselves.
