That's likely how he pronounces it, as do the majority of gamers. Your topic maybe gives the impression that that was is wrong, because that is the way the people here pronounce it. Same as the show, commercials, movies, etc.

Yes, it is ironic that you are attempting to make fun of someone else's grasp of English when you don't understand that the grapheme E can be realized as a schwa or wedge.

The vast majority pronounce it correctly, you're on the minority.

That said, but sure what TCs mad about, since, again, most people already say it the right way.
