Terran tank push is what it meant when the word was used for the first time and that`s what it should stay as, no need to change it. Most of the phrases listed never occurred to me to be overused. I`m more concerned about general habits of some commentators, not specific words. | ||

"Defensive Posture" "Robust" or corrects himself when he says Build instead of Opening. I didn't notice "Materialize" at the time, but in retrospect, it belongs on the list as well. However, he could say these things once a sentence and I would probably still watch his casts because they're just that insightful. | ||

Dude, they've looong used the word "push" is Warcraft 3, too, and there aren't even any tanks in that game. | ||

Seriously, some things like "Standard" or "Deviation" shouldn't be on the list. They're pieces of useful, precise vocabulary, and should always be used. | ||
