According to Reach, he is the fastest learner he has ever seen. He start bw only like 2/3 years ago. Infact, his bw history knowledge is so limited, he didn't even know what the map Guillotine was.

My old students used to make me laugh so damn hard with their unit impressions. When it came to teaching them the word 'juggling' they all ended up running round the class room doing 'zergling' impressions XD

Some korean on youtube told me choguling means aggressive lings. And is used as a name for annoying students in korean schools.

And templa sounds more like tempuloh imo

oh lol. The way you say 'juggling' ends up to be pretty much the same as the way you say 'zergling'.

That's pretty funny.

Most of these are hilarious whenever I hear a commentator say them. The one exception is when Daniel Lee says teerrahn... it sounds so horrible that it just annoys me.

Speak properly, and in as few words as you can, but always plainly; for the end of speech is not ostentation, but to be understood.
