choke in BW means basically "ramp"
in normal translation, a chokepoint is a small entrance, a small and short passage.

IF you live in a house, every door is a chokepoint.

the expression "choke" for the ramp on LT has become standard, so if you talk of "choke in BW", it's your (main)ramp, or your main entrance

well if you know what "to choke someone" means, it becomes pretty obvious what a choke is ;)

OH, ok, thank you.

I was hearing that Blizzards version of LT was crap because on 12 position the choke was all wide and stuff.

and trcc, the Glossary doesn't have the term 'choke'.

But ... it HAS MY NAME IN IT MWAHA!!1

Well on the 6 O'clock position of the new blizzard LT (since 1.12 if I remember correctly), you can not wallin. This is pretty bad, the size of the choke is still the same though, as it is a standard ramp.

the 12 choke on blizzard lt is like 3x as big as the other positions, its fucking bullshit.

biggest problem is the position of the natural actually
