Ask both how did they balance their practice for the SPL and OSL(iirc jangbi played an SC2 game on SPL after his Ro4 but that's like 2 weeks ago so whatevs, they'll just say their 100% focused on the OSL or something, but still, ask that), and how do they feel being the only ones not focusing on SC2 for quite some time now(they'll probably gonna answer "it's for the last OSL imma do my best blah blah blah" but you'd should still ask that).

Um Jae Kyung giving some background about the records/significance of this final.

First finals rematch in consecutive finals.
Chance for first Protoss back to back winner after Boxer and Jaedong did it for Terran and Zerg.
If Fantasy wins 3-1 in the final he will have the best win % of any Starleague winner ever, if he 3-0's he will be the first undefeated Starleague champion. If he goes 3-2 he matches Boxer.
OSL record is 12 win streak, Fantasy currently on 9 win streak.
Protoss 5 finals wins, Terran 4 wins. Chance for Fantasy to even it up.

Winner Predictions from Um Jae Kyung:
3-0 is very possible for either player.
It's going to come down to mental fortitude and who wants it more, in this respect he feels Fantasy wants it more so may have the edge in that sense.

Now Um is talking about the mentality and the mindsets that the players need to have. How can they handle the pressure of winning the last BW OSL? Questions like that.

Kim Carrier's Predictions!

If Fantasy's going to win, he will most likely shut out Jangbi 3:0
If this finals goes to the 5th game, Jangbi will win.

Kim Carry talking now.

Other than the Legend of the Fall Protoss has never shown dominance in Starleague.
Terran has won the most OSL titles but have always struggled most against Protoss in finals.
If there's a 3-0 it will be Fantasy winning 3-0 but if it goes to the fifth game he predicts Jangbi will win.

Remember to post good questions in here guys. We are the only foreigners at the venue, so take advantage of it.
Even it is being streamed, which is nice.

Do either of you have any words to say to the foreign fans who will not only be traveling from far and wide to be at the finals, but also be watching this finals in all corners of the world?

Now Jangbi:

Responds to Um's comment by stating that he wants it as badly as Fantasy.
He feels that Protoss should never lose a BoX series against Terran.

Fantasy:

Really wants revenge from last final.
Responds to Jangbi by saying that even though a Terran should never win versus Protoss in a BoX series, he is no ordinary Terran.

Jangbi and the whole team focused more on showing fantastic games to the fans than winning last finals because we thought that would be the last BW OSL Finals, and got good results. Since this finals IS the last BW OSL Finals, we will prepare the same way.

For either: This being the last BW OSL ever, can we expect epic player ceremonies befitting such an important milestone?

Also Jangbi: How does it feel being the god of storms? :'D

Let me know if either of these gets asked~

uh I can't think of a good question TT. The only thing I can vaguely think of is for maybe like a response by jangbi to this:
Q [to fantasy]: In your post-game TV interview, you said that if (T)BoxeR and (T)iloveoov came to your finals match, you would win.
A: Up until now, my SKT Terran seniors have all been 2-time OSL winners. In the past when I reached the finals, I would hear fans say things like "Fantasy is really an SKT Terran now," but because I could only win silvers, it was like the SKT Terran line was dying out. This time, I will definitely win and keep the SKT Terran legacy alive.

about what legend he feels he can continue as the last protoss in the last OSL (since legend match is also just boxer vs yellow, he is only protoss legend to be represented at the finals). I.e. fantasy has both boxer there and the whole SKT line to become a 2 time osl champion, but what legend does jangbi think he can fulfill.

How does it feel knowing that, whether you win or lose, these will be the last games people ever see of professional BW at its highest level?

When it is over, whether you win or lose, what will you do?

Does this being the last BW OSL ever hold any special meaning for you? Do you feel added pressure to win because of it? To Fantasy, does your experience in the last purely BW SPL final help you out for this?

about what legend he feels he can continue as the last protoss in the last OSL (since legend match is also just boxer vs yellow, he is only protoss legend to be represented at the finals). I.e. fantasy has both boxer there and the whole SKT line to become a 2 time osl champion, but what legend does jangbi think he can fulfill.

I like this one - would he be creating his own legend, possibly?

PD: This last Finals we hope to bring everybody who had a part in this E-sports together and even though we will be sad, we hope to go out with a smile.
