EPTAnyone here play on the Asia server and have the whole list? I think it's really interesting how the names on the Western servers are different from the Eastern servers. If Korea decides to pick up Starcraft 2 as an E-Sport, it may be difficult for people to understand the commentaries as in Brood War, people can deduce what the commentators are saying based on their Eastern pronunciation of the unit names. So I'd really like to get to know some of the Korean names now. Thanks!

I like Ultra-risk though, I think there must be a joke in here somewhere about the sad state the ultra is (was?) in Gasijiokgu. Reminds me of Eyjafjallajökull, the volcano | ||

Some names are pretty bad though and there are a lot of controversy over naming of some units in Korean forums. (Raven abd hellion in particular) | ||
