A basic error on the part of a Warcraft Map Designer; It is a misinterpretation of the word "owned"
In gaming language, it means to be elite and "totally dominate" or to "Own" with a "p" or "Pwn"
It can also be used as sort of a refrence to being "elite" or "uber"
This word was first used when a Warcraft Map Designer screwed up in his designing and programmed the computer(when the other player had lost) to say "You were owned." He made a typo and instead the computer ended up saying "You were pwned."

1."Dude, I just pwned you!"
meaning "Dude, I just owned you!"

meaning "Dude, my 90th-level sorceror owns!"
meaning "Dude, I just owned you!"
