To have something proxy means you built it in a remote location outside of your main base.
Marines & Marauders (M&M)
A commonly used strategy in which a Terran player will build Marines and Marauders as their primary army. It is common for players using this strategy to get Medivacs as well.
Thorship
A Thorship refers to a Thor being carried by a Medivac.
Overpowered (OP)
Used to describe a unit, ability or upgrade that is almost impossible to counter that grants too much advantage to a player or race.
Kiting
When a player uses a unit to draw away an opposing unit while turning around to open fire on it periodically. Also, when a unit is used to do something similar to the above, but lets other friendly units deal damage to the opposing one.
Casting (Cast, Caster)
A term which refers to an ability which must be explicitly activated by the player. For example, the High Templar's Psi Storm ability or the Infestor's Neural Parasite are skills that must be cast to function.
Passive
This is a term referring to any ability or upgrade which does not have to be explicitly cast or called. For example, the Overseer passively detects cloaked or burrowed units. The Dark Templar is passively cloaked. These skills do not need to be cast to function.
Cooldown
This is a time limit placed on some unit abilities which restrict how often a skill may be cast. For example, a skill with a ten second cooldown may be cast, but cannot be cast again for ten seconds.
Detection (Detector)
This is a passive ability possessed by some units and buildings which are known as Detectors. Detectors include Zerg Overseers, Terran Ravens, Protoss Observers, and structures like the Zerg Spore Crawlers and Missile Turrets, and Protoss Plasma Cannons. It is also a castable ability of the Terran Orbital Command. Detection reveals cloaked or burrowed units in its area of effect.
Proxy
Any building made outside of your base or expansions. It can be a tech building to fool opponents, or a production facility to get units to the battlefield faster.
