They translate the name of the character too 💀
I don’t see the purpose of that.
Wait, did they translate the names too?
Which are some of the Spanish names?

Ok, if it weren't changed from Pop Goes the Weasel or a translation of it, a perk called pin-pan-pun or bish-bash-bosh would be hilarious.
Yeah I know xD
What I meant is that it's a bad name for that specific perk.

Oh, I'm guessing "Escalofriante" could be "Distressing". I don't know how to check it out.
"Desasosiego" is proper translation if that's the case.

"No mither" changed from "Fuera rollos" to "ME LA PELA".
"Fuera rollos" means "without any problems" (Hakuna matata style) and "Me la pela" is "I don't care". Both are Spain specific idioms and latinamerican speakers do not often use them.

"Pop goes the weasel" changed from "Colorin colorado" to "PIN PAN PUN"
"Colorin colorado" is "pop goes the weasel" song. It keeps the tragicomic nature of the perk name. "PIN PAN PUN" is ... a bad name. It's "bish-bash-bosh", a rushed action being completed.
--
"Stridor" changed from "Estridor" to "Aliento"
"Stridor" is "Estridor", "Aliento" (Breath) does not quite reflects the perk idea.

"Spine Chill" changed from "Escalofriante" to "Desasosiego"
"Spine Chill" is literally "Escalifrío". "Escalofriante" was a cool translation. "Desasosiego" is misleading.

"Dead Hard" changed from "Chungo "to "FAJADOR"
"Chungo" is something rotten or crappy. Agian, only for Spanish speakers. Most latin american went like "######### is Chungo? (me included).
"Fajador" is someone (a boxer) that endures hits... only for Spanish speakers. In latinamerica, it means someone that hits/beats someone else, often as a routine.
The more I think about Dead Hard and No Mither, is that they have the perk translation switched from the beginning. It has more sens that Chungo was No Mither.
"Dead Hard" is difficult to be translated, I'd personally go "Sin estremecerse" or something like that (without flinching).

"Dying light" changed from "Luz extinta" to "LUZ QUE AGONIZA"
"Dying light" would be translated properly as "Luz Agonizante"
"Luz extinta" is "Extinguished light". I liked this translation even more, because it reflects the perk effects after it's activation (a permanent debuff, an extinguished light). It's not permanent anymore, but anyways.
"LUZ QUE AGONIZA" means something like Dimmed light, but is badly worded.
My two cents.

"No mither" changed from "Fuera rollos" to "ME LA PELA"
"Fuera rollos" means without any problems (Hakuna Matata style) and "Me la pela" is "I don't care". Both are idioms and are only valid in Spain, and latinamerica speakers barely known what they actually mean.

"Pop goes the weezel" changed from "Colorin colorado" to "PIN PAN PUN"
Colorín colorado was the exact same song "Pop goes the weezel" , that was a perfect translation if they wanted to keep the tragicomedy style of the perk name. Pin Pan Pun is ... a bad name basically. It's like saying "wham, bam, bun" in English.
--
"Stridor" changed from "Estridor" to "Aliento"
Stridor literally means Estridor. Aliento (breath) simply does not reflect the perk idea.
--
"Spine Chill" changed from "Escalofriante" to "Desasosiego"
Spine chill IS Escalofrío. It literally means that. Escalofriante was a really good name. Desasosiego is kinda misleading and is not a widely known word.
--
"Dead Hard" changed from "Chungo" to "FAJADOR"
Chungo means something that is rotten or crappy. I'm thinking that maybe No mither and dead hard translation were switched from the beginning. The more you think about it, Chungo could be a description of the state of no mither. And it's, again, only a Spain idiom, latin amerincan speakers were "#########?!" (my actual reaction).
I think the proper translation for this perk should be something like "sin inmutarse" that means undeterred or not flinch, and is more widely used among Spanish speakers.
And "Fajador" is someone (often a boxer) that endures hits.... only in Spain, in Latin America is someone that beats someone.

"Dying Light" changed from "Luz extinta" to "LUZ QUE AGONIZA"
Proper translation of Dying light is "Luz agonizante". Luz extinta is "extinguished light" (I really liked this translation, it's what happens when the perk is active).
"Luz que agoniza" is Dimmed light, but it just not "sound" well, it's badly worded.
My two cents.
