Can somebody please, please tell the announcers how to say it properly? It's driving me nuts.

riposte or ripost [ri-pohst]

That's a hard 'O' guys. C'mon. All of them make this mistake constantly. It's frustrating.

Shut up

Like considering some of them speak multiple languages is enough. FFS find something real to complain about

You make no sense. You're telling someone to shut up on a discussion board. Discussion is the very purpose of this board.

Then you say that correcting a mistake isn't worthwhile if you speak a different language. This has nothing to do with how many languages they speak. The one they're casting in is English. I would think in the interest of professionalism, they would probably prefer not to make mistakes on live broadcasts.

It's especially interesting because given the genre of the game (fantasy) riposte is a fairly common and well-known term. I'm surprised nobody has said anything about it before.

Just because you call it a discussion, doesn't mean it's a worthwhile one. This is ONE word~
