You can see that MrHoon and Kona have donequitea job translating Fomos's long interview series with e-sports personalities, with their predictions for the Nate MSL finals between Flash and JD.
A poster on PGR21.com with the id "V" compiled the results so we can see the results very clear.Source
Announcers Flash: Lee Seung Won (main MBCGame announcer), Um Jae Gyung (main OGN announcer) Jaedong: None
Protoss: Flash 2 - 3 Jaedong Flash: Stork, Much Jaedong: Bisu, Free, Best
Amusing points that came to mind: Zerg are the most pessimistic about Jaedong's chances, while Protoss actually favor Jaedong. This is probably because they're the two groups that have been respectively killed the hardest by both players. SKT's two older Bonjwas like Flash, but their four main players think Jaedong will win.
Wow... Flash has the backing of all the top ZvTers.... Zero, Calm, Effort, Yarnc whereas JD has the backing of mostly the top TvZers....Hwasin, Light, Iris..... Sea and Mind are missing from the JD camp.
Thanks for a tally. Anyone mind linking to the translation thread, if there is one, for the rest of the progamers opinions? I think I read it actually but I don't remember some progamer's comments (Don't remember reading about Iris', etc.).
I find it very interesting that all of the SKT players polled voted for Jaedong.
Maybe the fact that their zergs suck so bad makes the idea of a strong zerg that much more impressive.
EDIT: Somehow I skipped over the bonjwa section. Still, it's interesting how the Boxer/Oov vote Flash, while the newer SKT generation votes for Jaedong.

To be correct, there are exactly 3 More long ass translations

I didn't catch it until now
Does every final have this much coverage from top players or is this one special?
All of these hype translations are really awesome btw. Much appreciated!

special one lol these interviews are fun too!
You know what's so funny though? You could just hear the bitterness in Kwanro's interview. It's so funny because he's been bitching about MSL ever since he lost

On Fantasy predicting JD will win:
SKT believes Match point is Zerg favored that is all.
