SKT1:
The player for this team will be either Boxer or Midas. We know boxer has a Godly stats and timing in this map, but so does KTF and every other teams. This is a reason why every team that has played against SKT1 sent out a protoss in this map. No team is foolish enough to send a zerg against Boxer. Anticipating this little fact, SKT1 now few times have sent out Midas, the protoss killer. The chances of seeing Midas is greater if Boxer chooses to enter ANY of 2v2s (probably Iron Curtain if he does decide to enter a 2v2 since the map demands 1. terran 2. strategy.) If boxer have practiced this map, then theres no doubt he will be the one to show in match number one since achieving the first victory plays viral role in proleagues. Boxer 50%. Midas 50%.
KTF:
Its not going to be a zerg, too much to risk. But keeping in possibility that a zerg has developed a killer move/strategy, ill give this 5%.
If terran, its going to be Goodfriend. I give this possibility 25%.
I strongly believe a protoss will come out whether its Reach or Nal_ra. Knowing this map demands more of a macro game rather than a strategical one, I place the possibilities of Reach coming out slightly higher than Nal_Ra coming out. In sums, Reach 40% and Nal_Ra 30%.
My prediction: Boxer = Reach
Set2 Usan nation
SKT1:
I am pretty certain that they will send out Rumble(Z) and Canata(T) for this map. SKT1 always has and for the record, Rumble and Canata does have convincing stats in this map. We can see their strength in their last game vs Samsung KHAN. They pulled an one way victory tying the series. 90% sure it will be Rumble/Canata for SKT1.
KTF:
For KTF, there is a choice to make. We've seen Chojja(Z)/Marine(T), Chojja(Z)/GoodFriend(T) and Reach(P)/Yellow(Z) in Usan Nation. However, I'm leaning more toward Chojja/Goodfriend combination. First, they pulled off an amazing win over G.O. in the deciding game 6. Further more, Chojja/Marine lost at their last encounter with SKT1, GoRush(Z)/Midas(T).
Unless Reach/Yellow comes up with a killer strategy, the best bet is on Chojja/GoodFriend. Chojja/GF = 65%, Chojja/Marine = 25%, Reach/Yellow = 10%
My Prediction: Rumble/Canata < Chojja/GF
SKT1 is more known for their 1v1s while KTF is more known for 2v2s. SKT1 will concentrate more on 1v1s. Likewise, KTF will put their full effort on 2v2s. Because of this reason, I will give KTF slightly higher chance taking the win.
Im having fun predicting, lol...

Interesting statistics..
Seems like SKT got one really good player on each of the three first 1on1 games:
1. R-Point 13:4 (Slayer_'Boxer' 6:0/Midas 4:3/Kingdom 2:0/GoRush 1:0/Rumble 0:1)
2. Rush Hour2 12:2 (iloveoov 6:0/Midas 3:2/GoRush 2:0/Mumyun 1:0)
3. Neo Requiem 12:4 (Kingdom 7:1/Midas 2:0/Boxer, GoRush, 이건준LeeGunJune(Z) 1:0/GoRush 1:2/IntotheRainbow 0:1)
But KTF seems to have an edge on the 2 last 2v2 games:
6. Luna the Final 11:1 (Yellow-Reach 5:1/TheMarine-Chojja 4:0/Reach-Chojja, Yellow-조병호Jo ByungHo 1:0)
7. Iron Curtain 11: 7 (Yellow-Reach 7:2/Yellow-TheMarine 2:1/Chojja-TheMarine 1:2/Chojja-박현준Park HyunJoon 1:2)
Game 4 and 5 are more equal in the statistics...
But then again it is basically all about matchups.. ![](/mirror/smilies/smile.gif)

We are going to see their best line-ups here. Anyway i have to say that the Proleague is extremly balanced as a league. KTF and SK T1 deserve their spot in the final and GO, Khan as the next two.

This will be a pretty intresting final. But I think that T1 will be stronger this time.

More interesting facts:
Considering recent results, SKT1 is without a doubt ahead of KTF. SKT1 held a victory in the first Proleague 2005 Finals against none other than KTF. Not only that, SKT1 defeated SamSung KHAN in the later Proleague 2005 earning themselves two titles within a year. SKT1 does not show any sign of laziness/lack of tense(?). They play their best regardless of their opponents. SKT1 did not participate in any of the Invite Tournaments nor the Evaluation Events. This can only show their dedication to win the Grand Finals.
KTF can be compared to Real Madrid Club of Football. KTF's member roster stands out among the teams, yet they lack in cohesion, resulting in inconsistent results. They have created a new astounding record of 23 wins throughout the leagues; however, they have disappointing losses such as their impotent 0-4 defeat against SamSung KHAN.
These two teams are 8 - 3 against one another, KTF leading the stats. Even with such monsterous stats, SKT1 currently presents a better atmosphere. This is because SKT1 has shown dominance over KTF in the previous Finals(4-1). Not only that, SKT1 defeated KTF in the last meeting securing them Ranking #1 which granted them a spot in the Finals against Samsung. Nevertheless, KTF had a triumph over G.O, renewing their confidence.

Related sounds weird to me, compared instead of related sounds better to me.

Sounds weird too, I'd use something like such as their impotent 0-4 defeat against SamSung KHAN. Your translation is very understandable and your English is definitely not bad. I'm not particularily good at English either and I do feel like an ass correcting English mistakes, still, you asked for it.
