"Toot Toot"!--Demonic Tutor (I'm not quite sure how this started...)

"Me smash!"--attacking with something that is very large.

"He's not just gone, he's way gone."--Remove from game.

"Valiant sacrifice for the cause."--chump block.

"He's fantastic!"--casting Mogg Fanatic

"BoltIncinerateFireblastGoodGame."--I just crushed you (only used around friends).

I'm not sure if it's Magic Slang or blatant ignorance on how to pronounce words correctly.
But, I am fond of saying a few things of my own, like:
"Okay, Sp-arky!" translated to: "You're doing something I'm suspicious of"
-or-
"Some Good" translated to: "That's really good" (I know this is a direct rip-off of Pikula slang, but I like it.
-or-
"Ping" if I am dealing damage via an ability and "Dink" if I'm dealing combat damage for 1 point.
