For Flash (10)
 EffOrt: Although this final is very evenly matched, I personally hope Flash can win. During the OSL finals, I joked with Flash in the chat about how he should go easy on me and let me win one of the two titles. It'd be great if it actually happened and Flash won the other title.
 sKyHigh: I think Flash will win 3-2, the maps are very good for Terran.
Action: I was originally going to predict Jaedong, but after watching Flash lose the OSL finals, I think he will have a much stronger mindset going into the match. I believe Flash will win the MSL.
fantasy: It's probable that Flash wins 3-0. Since he has the kind of personality where he will come back stronger than ever after losing, the OSL loss should have invigorated him.
ZerO: I think Flash will probably win 3-2. Both the first and fifth sets are on Triathlon, where Terran has a lot of room for strategic plays [T/N: Okay that's just an educated guess, if someone could clear that up that would be great ><], so I think Flash is favoured. Even though Jaedong is very strong, the maps give an advantage to Flash.
 JangBi: I'm not sure why, but I always think Flash will win. Last time in the NATE MSL Flash should've been able to win, but Jaedong won. This time, however, it will be the opposite. This time it's as if Jaedong should win, but in the end the champion will be Flash.
Shine: Flash will win. He lost last season, so this time he will prepare even harder.
Kal: To be honest, this finals is very hard to predict, but Flash should have the better chance. I think it will end up 3-1 or so. It's only because I'm close with Flash that I'm predicting/hoping he wins.
HyuN: Last time I predicted Jaedong would win, but this time I think Flash will win 3-1. Recently, Jaedong has been very strong, but Flash feels like he has been even stronger. The maps are the kind that make Terrans secretly chuckle to themselves [lol what], too. The first and fifth sets are on Triathlon, and when I was practicing for the MSL this season I felt this map was very advantageous to Terran. If it gets to the fifth set, it will definitely favour Flash.
Horang2: I predict Flash will win 3-2. The OSL loss will cause him to prepare even harder for this finals.
TL;DR: Triathlon
-----
For Jaedong (14):
Stork: Jaedong should be able to win. Last time in the Nate MSL finals, under similar circumstances of the maps being unfavoured for him, he was still able to win 3-1. This season's maps are much better than last's for Zerg, so I predict Jaedong to win.
Juni: Jaedong will win the championship unconditionally, 3-1.
NaDa: I think regardless of who wins the score will be 3-2. In the end I think the victor will be Jaedong. Jaedong is playing even better now, his series play is impeccable and he is very strong at the psychological aspect too. A focused Jaedong can be very scary.
Mind: I think Jaedong will win. Of the two finalists, Jaedong's force is stronger.
RorO: Jaedong will win, he excels at this kind of situation. His play in BoX series is amazing.
BaBy: Jaedong should win the championship. Flash has had to prepare for both the MSL and OSL dual finals on a tight schedule, which requires a lot of focus and energy. But Jaedong only needs to concentrate on the MSL, so he will have an advantage in the finals.
Movie: Jaedong will probably win 3-1 or 3-2. From my perspective, Jaedong feels as though he is more outstanding...
free<3: I predict Jaedong can win the championship. Flash beat me to reach the finals, so we can't have him winning (laughs). Plus, if Jaedong can win, then both league champions will be Zergs, so next season's maps will become more favourable for Protoss. If Jaedong wins I think the score will be 3-2, but if he loses it will be 0-3.
[T/N: Free is such a baller]
Really: Last season, Jaedong already defeated Flash, yet from this season's standpoint, Jaedong has gotten even stronger. He's also scary good at BoX series play. The score will be 3-1 or 3-2.
BeSt: Jaedong wins 3-2. Flash lost the finals recently, which will have an impact on his mindset, while Jaedong is the exact opposite, having undergone a revival in May, so I think Jaedong is the favourite to win.
Bisu: Jaedong 3-1. Recently Jaedong has been doing very well in ZvT, and will show Flash his strength. Meanwhile, Flash's loss in the OSL must have impacted his mindset.
Calm: It's difficult for me to give a specific reason, but I have the feeling Jaedong will win.
Light: I think Jaedong will win this time, but not as easily as last season. After watching the Flash vs. EffOrt finals, I felt he was holding back a little. It looks as though he will reveal all of his preparations against Jaedong. I think the final score will be 3-2: Triathlon will not affect Jaedong at all.
TL;DR: Jaedong is good at BoX. Flash just lost the OSL.
----------
50/50 (4): I'm just going to translate these briefly because they're all just fence-sitting and saying mostly the same things D:
Midas: I think it's 50:50 because Flash and Jaedong are both extremely good players. To choose who is better in this situation is difficult.
Kwanro: Last time in the Nate MSL I thought Flash would win, but this season I think it'll be close. Jaedong has been playing very strongly but Flash's recent performance has been exceptional too, so it's difficult to choose.
Sea: The maps are Terran-favoured, if Flash can win the first set then he can win the series. But if Jaedong wins the first set, he will win the rest of the series overwhelmingly. The first set is very important. Triathlon appears in the first and fifth sets, so if it gets to the deciding set Flash should be able to win. [T/N: Doesn't seem very 50/50 to me]
Leta: I really don't know, only that it will be epic. Originally, if Flash had been able to win the OSL, then he would have the psychological advantage for the MSL, but since he lost, it may have damaged his mindset. On the other hand, Jaedong has had very good momentum, so the outcome of this finals is very hard to predict
----------
Wow that was mind-bogglingly boring to translate haha T_T. First time translating, if anybody finds corrections or whatnot I'll make them, I'm sure I made a bunch since my Chinese isn't all that amazing ^_^;
And for possible future reference, how the hell do you translate 气势, CSheep/other Chinese translators?
edit: By the way, it's totally cute how the Chinese interviews maintain the "seonsu" after everybody's names

why no boxer? i would love to know what his predictions are....

Nada has spoken!!!
My respect for Nada increased even more now. Jaedong is close to beating him as the GOAT and he still thinks JD will take the title.
|
I believe Nada's judgment. ^^
|
Thank you Kyuukyuu!
Interesting that more Zergs predict a Flash victory.

How is he 2 points anyway? He only had 2 games >_>
+ Show Spoiler +jk, thanks for translation and awesome predictions overall

go go Jaedong! I also agree with Free about the maps.
|
|

Based on these predictions
14 For Jaedong - 4 50/50 - Flash 10
50% win ----------- ----14.3%---------------35.7% to win
Removing the 4 50/50
Jaedong win 57.1%
Flash 42.9%
100% chance for 3-2 for Jaedong.

Yeah, while more Terrans favor Jaedong. Tz, they have no faith in their own race...at least the Terrans.

last time nada, canata, fantasy, iris, light, shine, hyun, bisu, free, best predicted a jaedong win
with best, light and hyun correctly predicting jaedong 3-1
this time,
nada, light, free, bisu and best predict jaedong again, (only fantasy and hyun switched over)
GOGO JAEDONG
|
The Protosses sure don't know shit about TvZ. Look at Bisu and Free's comments...
IMO Flash 51-49 JD.
|
I was more interested in go.go and sAviOr's predictions :/ guess thats not happening, Flash for champion!
|
btw: Are there any predictions from the commentators?

Yeah, I am sure you know a lot more than A-class progamer tosses about TvZ.
Heck I wouldnt be surprised if their offraces were A/A+.
Thanks for the translation. Jaedong is a beast and I hope he wins, this time he is playing as the champion and not the underdog.
|
Fantasy is clearly bitter about his own loss in a final to Jaedong. How is 3-0 probable? haha
|
Effort says that flash says that he can let him have one of the 2 titles..?

Is there a different translation for this? D:
Also, lol @ thinking map imbalance means anything to Jaedong. Expect to have your mind blown.

i love you guys for all these pre-game translations

The Chinese thread literally says "on chat window before last final".
Well I think they chatted on the internet but I'm not sure.

Ahaha Fantasy hates Jaedong.
|
LOL Hyun, I can just imagine Sea and Light giggling at their computers while he gets raped in practice
|
oh shit this is epiccccccccc <3
who would've thought that JD would get more pro support than flash
|
|
|
Rekrul must be pleased. He has over seven thousand dollars on Jaedong.
|
Lulz. After reading predictions I suddenly hate all of those who predicted Flash and I now love the progamers that predicted Jaedong.

I agree with you Kyuukyuu, and it's true what he says about P-flavoured maps if Jaedong wins...
Thanks for the interview!

Hyun is so funny, completely wrong about his predictions, but so funny ^^
|
I cannot wait to watch what strategies has JD prepared for Triathlon . I think most of the series depend on that.
|
Free is awesome!
Thx for the translation.

Well its not surprise Fantasy would side with his friend Flash 
Lets see, Kal lost to jaedong so he picks Flash, and Movie lost to Flash so he picks Jaedong niceeeee

Sea obviously doesn't know about jaedongs 0-1 to 3-1 strategy.

that's a pretty bold statement from jangbi..
I can't believe some people still believe the maps will affect players like jaedong. Did they forget the last msl?

Best has spoken.
If I remember correctly, Best was the one who predicted the outcome of the NATE MSL finals perfectly, right down to the outcome of each game.
EDIT: Yeah, it was Best. His NATE MSL predictions:
Best: I think Jaedong will win as well. 3-1 or so? I think Jaedong will lose game 2 on ultimatum, but he will take games 1, 3, and 4 to win. Flash has incredible force after his OSL win, but I think this is going to inspire Jaedong to prepare even better.
My favorite predictions were by Stork and Nada.
|
Triathalon extremely supports the bio pressure into mech play that is so strong right now. Jaedong being 1-1 on triathlon vs T isn't a big swing either way when you look at it number wise, but the games themselves are a better show of how imba that map is for this MU.
If you are going to watch any 1 game of this series, watch the first set, because that's the one jaedong has some massive crazy build prepped for.

I'd translate 气势 as momentum, but that's just my interpretation.
For example, when Hyun talks, I'd translate it as something like "Jaedong's momentum has been roaring as of late, but Flash's momentum is that of another level.
When Best speaks, it might go something like, "Flash's momentum has taken a hit, whereas ever since May, Jaedong's momentum has been absolutely roaring, etc."
Momentum, power, something along those lines.
|
I agree with Roffles, either "momentum" or "powerful aura" depending on the context.
|
Woohoo more translators! always a good thing Thanks!

Yeah I used momentum or just overall strength but sometimes calling it that sounds weird in English. Or maybe that's just me. In any case I think "JD's momentum has been absolutely roaring" sounds really weird.
Also I originally just literally translated it into "powerful aura" but that sounded more funny than imposing in my head
|
Most Terrans and Protoss side with JD, while most Zergs think Flash will win. The Tyrant should punish these Zerg underlings.
|
I don't even care what everybody else thought, free's answer was gold.
|
of all the Terrans (that knows their stuff), BaBy...... predict JD. wtf
Thats like saying "only I can pound JD into the ground" give your confidence to Flash, ffs.
fuck, if Baby practice with JD then Flash is kinda SOL.
|
fantasy clearly bitter about his Bo5 failures vs Jaedong by predicting a Flash sweep. And shame on the fence-sitters. Cowards!
|
I love it when they're given questions which demand much more than a generic, PC answer. I could be mouthing off nonsense but for some strange reason I think the answers here reflect their personalities (for once) as people and progamers; Midas with the wishy-washy hedging, NaDa taking a holistic and thorough analysis, Stork coldly analysing map balances, etc.
|
Stork chooses Jaedong to win because Stork could beat Flash ezpz, and Stork knows he isn't as good as Jaedong. Ahh, this never gets old.

Or he just knows if he was good enough to make it to an MSL finals in Flash's place he would get trashed by Jaedong..

Yah I was going to say both momentum and aura before reading your posts after so a combination of both? Gotta love the language.

Yeah, I went up to ZerO (5th) and thought "whaat... no way, I have to read the comments" then I scrolled and saw it.
Looks like many of them just say that their favourite is going to win (Baby, RoRo, Mind, Effort, Kal...)
But some seem very sincere ( <3 Nada).
7 hours 48 minutes!
I hope we have the most awesome final ever. OSL was cool, but a bit anticlimactic, even though I was rooting for Effort.

Err what? I disagree with that assessment. Even if Jaedong gains a 1-2 Starleague gold advantage, I'd be hesitant in making such a claim considering NaDa's lengthy history, and Jaedong isn't yet even with NaDa, let alone ahead. Let's not even get started on just how much NaDa contributed to the game either.

lol effort, you > flash and flash > jd doesnt mean you > jd

last time light and best guessed a 3-1 victory, this time they guess a 3-2 victory, jaedong 3-2 incoming

Lol free. Is it just me or is it only Tosses that seem to suffer from massive map imbalances (or complain about it anyway)

thank you!

Bisu: Jaedong 3-1. Recently Jaedong has been doing very well in ZvT, and will show Flash his strength. Meanwhile, Flash's loss in the OSL must have impacted his mindset.
Lol, Flash doesn't have the same weak mindset like you Bisu..

气势 roughly equates to momentum in terms of meaning.

fantasy and free were both right! haha

+ Show Spoiler +fantasy: It's probable that Flash wins 3-0. Since he has the kind of personality where he will come back stronger than ever after losing, the OSL loss should have invigorated him.
