Here's a couple used by my friends and such:-

Turbo foot - Zealot speed.

Shock men - High Templar.

Crack head - The act of killing one's main CC/Hatch/Nexus on FMP. For those of you that never played FMP, you can't rebuild your main the way it was when the game began hence your 'head' was 'cracked'

Workers - SCVs/Probes/Drones.

Shock - The act of using the High Templar's Psi-Storm.

Eye - Observers/Sci-Vessels.

Stingers - Corsairs.

Crabs - Lurkers.

Fishbone men- Hydralisks.

Birds - Mutalisks.

Bikes - Vultures.

Metal - Mech play.

Jaedong'd Yourself: When a bunch of units get stuck because of a unit of yours blocking a small choke.

Jaehoon Recall: When you do an offensive recall of like, 2 units.

ez: Better than offensive gg

"cat mother": This is an unusual Korean insult which is quite offensive in Korea, but is hilarious-sounding in English.

In "Nal_rA Oldboy" show progamers used "Bermuda recall" phrase for recall on top of terran mines.


it actually means when you recall the units don't come out because it collides with unlandable terrain
jaehoon took it to the next level though


Hahaha what a highlights video - even better for having unexplained Bisu at the end
