You're trying to use han-ja conversions.. which don't apply here most of the term. The 'yung' here is totally unrelated to the han-ja counterpart.


I see, I just always thought they were saying "Yuk"
I guess you could be right.

also about your 이 한 타이밍 comment, 이 means both "this" and "two", therefore you have to use context to find out its meaning.

But in case of "영" there is no definition "sudden"


Yeah, but they 'create' the term. It's just one of those terms without no original meaning but is created along the way

errr i am almost certain that it is 역 not 영


Seriously? I'll check this again, because I swear I heard this as '영' muta everytime. If it is indeed 역 then I'm very sorry l1of :<

Yeah it's 역, meaning counter mutas. Example - Zerg kills a Corsair with scourages and gets mutalisks to exploit that


WIN! lmao just kidding :D

P.S. its l10f not l1of :D

I hear fairly often.
You can also describe simple counters. For example, firebat is 상성(counter to) zerglings, but if 역 is added, than you can describe zerglings being 역상성(opposite counter) to firebats.

Fix
'Jung k Buk k' should be 'Jung k Bug k'. As it's derived from 정복+버그.

good initiative

a few things:

-they usually call it 사업 for range upgrade (goon/rine)
-they use 스탑러커 (stop lurker) not 스턴
-바이오닉 for terran infantry
-바카닉 for mixed infantry/mech

한방 - just means any army that has the potential to do major damage/end the game but can also be used as something like 마지막 한방 last han bang/last chance

역전 yuk jun - a comeback

역러시 - yung rush - counter attack usually said when after a player does a bad attack theres a timing window for the other player to attack while the player is remacroing making defense

for example if a zerg suicided his army into yours you unsiege all your tanks and attack asap. A

난전 - nan jun (my fav) hard to explain
creating chaos, shaking your opponent with harass used the most in tvz and tvp. When a terran is behind in tvz the commentators might say 난전으로 역전해야되요 they must create chaos to get back into the game. Fantasy is considered the king of this with his vults

추가 병력 - cho ga byun yuk - reinforcements

These are more internet slang just a few

양민 - yang min - used in bnet stands for the common people/newbs/ same meaning as chobo
양민 사냥 - yang min sa nyang - literally newb hunting - newb bashing

허접 - hu jup same as chobo/yangmin

초그링 cho guh ling is just internet slang for like elementary students 초딩cho ding(ele student)+저그링 zergling

쩐다 - jjun da - amazing/surprising
You can use it like when your obsing a game of your friend and he does sick sick muta micro
와 쩐다 wae jjun da

꼬라박아 - ggoh rah bak ah- senseless/suicidal attacking without thinking
in other words rock's pvt haha




correct me if i made any mistakes

This is fantastic. I love picking up words in a korean cast. Introduce a few of these at a time and I'll be able to follow it much better =)

Thanks konadora!
seriously next disrespectful comment in this blog is ip ban. Be happy or get the hell out. // SC2 is like playing with neutral-colored Play-Doh while BW is like colorful Legos.

역러시 is correct, but it's usually pronounced as 영러시 by assimilation effect.
