Sorry guys, I haven't been keeping up with the Chinese casts as usual as I would like, but I've been busy with schoolwork on my exchange program and things with my personal life.

Today we have a member of InfinitySeven, a pro protoss player, Time, playing versus my coach, DIRESTRAIT a master's league zerg player on the NA ladder.

Vocabularies that I need to know for future Chinese casting:

"He's just gonna go for it."
"Block" (as in pylon-block)
"Supply block"
"Wall-off" (as in "Supply depot/ barracks wall off")
"Cheese"
"All-in" (Although I've heard Taiwanese casters simply saying "All in" in English)
"Fungal Growth"
"Battlefield" (This cast I tried saying "戰場“ although I didn't know if this was the correct word or not.)
"Snipe"
"Target Down"

As always, please comment, subscribe, and if possible spread this to other forums. I'm really not too comfortable with daring to post this on sc2clan.tw forums just yet.

Some depend too much on context to translate, but here's a few:
"Supply block" 卡人口
"Wall-off" (as in "Supply depot/ barracks wall off") 堵口
"Cheese"
"All-in" Both can be 放大招, very colloquial, and/or 拉农民 (pull workers) where appropriate
"Fungal Growth" forgot proper name, but people use 定 or also 戴绿帽子 kekekekeke
"Battlefield" (This cast I tried saying "戰場“ although I didn't know if this was the correct word or not.) yeah it's alright
"Snipe" 狙击,also sometimes pewpewpew
"Target Down" Will ”XYZ被打死了“ work?

XYZ? for example, "B H 被打死了"? (Hatchery was sniped). What I mean is, you immediately order all of your units to attack one target, does that make sense?

I've seen Taiwan casters call cheese "巧妙什麽什麽”


and when you say "or pewpewpew" do you mean, 炮炮炮?

"he is going to go for it" could be 硬上 ying4 shang4

"cheese" 放大招 fang4 da4 zhao1

“all-in" 一波帶走 yi1 bo1 dai4 zou3

"target down" 點掉 dian3 diao4 (click down)

yeah snipes can just say pewpew, it sounds like it so Chinese/Taiwanese call that

Oh like target a specific unit/building, then you can use the verb 点, as in click. Or just 攻击XYZ which I suppose is more formal but less Starcraft-y.

Pewpewpew as in Star Trek noises, onomatopoeias FTW.

Sorry for the bump. I haven't seen an update for a while. I'd love to watch the casts! Have any of these casts been uploaded somewhere where I can still watch them? The ones in the threads are all removed. I will provide honest critiques as well!
