The line comes from Blizzard's Warcraft III: Reign of Chaos, released in 2002, where Horde troll units respond to player orders with Spanish-localized acknowledgement quotes in the Spanish version of the game. Buena elección is one of those selection responses, recorded to give the troll Witch Doctor and Headhunter units personality during real-time strategy matches. Clips of the localized voice lines later circulated on soundboards and in gameplay edits, where Spanish-speaking players kept using the quote out of context as a quick, recognizable stamp of approval.
