EPTAnd I know that you dont like people making new topics unless they have 100 posts, however I was interested in knowing what that chant that the korean crowds do at the start of starcraft games is?
Is there someone who could translate it for me?

"One, Two, Three, [Insert player name] FIGHTING!" "Fighting" is something that Koreans say to cheer someone one. It's bastardized English that came through from Japan. So to say HonestTea Fighting! would mean "Let's go HonestTea!" During Proleague games, since it's team vs team, fans will also often say [insert team name] Fighting! | ||

basically MBC only has male fans, where as KTF has all the screaming girl fans. This is why KTF will always be bigger than MBC, as long as they have yellow and reach. .. heh. | ||

For example... since there are two players: Nal_rA vs. Kingdom. (Kangmin vs. Park YongWook) "Kangmin~ 1, 2, 3! Kangmin Hwyting~!! Park YongWook~ 1, 2, 3! Park YongWook Hwyting~!!" Those are usually the group chants. Sometimes you hear a few fanatics, who scream by themselves, especially the Oh YoungJong (AnyTime[gm]) group. AJA AJA! Oh Young Jong! AJA AJA! Oh Young Jong! AJA (아자) is usually a yell of encouragement. Friend: 아, WhatisProtoss... 내일부터 시험있어.. T_T (WhatisProtoss, my exams start tomorrow. T_T) Me: 오, 힘내라~! 아자아자~! (Oh, be strong! Aja aja!) | ||

eh, simple. because KTF has Reach and he has a couple hundred thousand fans who for all we know are probably 99.9% girls While the MBC team are being rooted by the actual progaming scene (male) observers | ||

ktf, 1, 2, 3 .. then all the middle school girls would shout KTF 화이팅, then the mbc guy would follow shouting mbc, 1, 2, 3 .. and the male fans would shout MBC 화이팅. I hate wearing a headset to hear the sound when I'm running.. it gets all wet and stuff with sweat.. eww. so for most of the program I didn't have sound, so I didn't get how they actually pick the chant leaders but that's generally how it works / what they say. the leader .. leads the chant with the name of whoever they're going to shout for, followed by a 1, 2, 3 then everybody chants "name" 화이팅. There are occasional variations.. but basically this is it | ||
