Before any BW finals, commentators always have interviews where they try and predict who will win. But they always do that so those are lame, and I came upon an interview of Iris and Hwasin on who they think will win in the upcoming OSL Finals.
Map 1 - Longinus 2
Yes, Savior is a "balance" breaker and he did bring up Zerg's winning percentage in this map, but nonetheless Terrans are still very confident in Longinus 2.
Hwasin thinks Savior will go with a rather drastic build such as 9 pool or 3 hat. He believes Nada will be the favorite if he keeps up his normal game and remain calm.
Iris thinks the key to the game will be early build orders. He believes if Savior doesn't gain a big advantage early in the game, Nada will win.
Map 2 - Neo Alkanoid (Spelling?)
While these two terran players feel confident about Longinus 2, they feel they are at a disadvantage in Neo Alkanoid.
Hwasin thinks unless Nada pulls some crazy shit to put Savior in a very bad position, Savior will rape Nada. He says looking at how Savior overcame early difficulties in a Neo Alkanoid game in the 3rd Superfight, Savior is the favorite for this map.
Iris also thinks Savior will win unless Nada comes with some unexpected stunt up his sleeve. He says the map is designed to the zerg's favor even if the zerg carries out a defensive game.
Map 3 - Reverse Temple
Both players think that whatever happens, RT is an "okay" map for Terrans. Therefore they predict Nada will take this map with ease.
Hwasin thinks if the game becomes a long one, Nada will win easily. He believes Terrans have the advantage in Reverse Temple.
Iris thinks likewise. He says regardless of starting positions, Terran is the favorite and it would be very hard for Savior to win.
Map 4 - HitchHiker
The two terrans believe Hitchhiker is a difficult map for terrans and Savior will beat Nada on this map.
They say if the zerg is allowed to upgrade to hive units, there is nothing the terran can do to stop his opponent. They believe in order for Nada to win, he must come prepared with an early game strat that will finish the game before Savior can go hive. They think if the terran goes the basic build order and takes nat, Nada will 100% lose.
In all, the two players predict a classic match since both players deserve to be there.
Hwasin says if Nada wants to take home the title, he must shutout Savior 3:0. If the game goes on to the 5th game, he believes Savior will be crowned champion.
Iris believes both players have a 50/50 chance of winning. And if Longinus 2 is played in the first and last match, Savior is the slight favorite.

Source? It's obvious Nada is going to kick Savior's ass.
