Based on these lineups I have no idea who's going to win since it seems to prone to luck.


In this case, OZ has the advantage because they have the Super Ace Card in Jaedong. They just have to win 1 day and a victory looks certain for them. Therefore, I have to give OZ the advantage.

Definitely not as favorable as a lineup as Oz had vs CJ (day 1), but it's possible. Just possible.

Decent lineup for OZ. They definitly have a chance. Somehow, someway, I just see it coming down to Jaedong and Bisu on neo medusa for all the marbles.

I predict another (Z)Jaedong upset.
(Z)Hyuk > (Z)Jaedong Maybe (Z)Hyuk got some tips from (Z)Orion

Hopefully either 1) SKT1 wins 2-0 or 2) Comes down to a SuperAce match in which (P)Bisu>(Z)Jaedong
But Oz DOES have a chance of winning it all.

I don't know why people think that Oz did such a good job with lineups. I think the SKT1 coach actually ended up with more favorable matchups.

Consider that Oz only has a few players besides Jaedong who are solid: Backho, Hiya, and Lomo. Lomo is like 50% solid, but we'll count him.

These players are each matched up against players that have a definite advantage against them: Best, Bisu, and Canata on day 1, and Canata, Fantasy, and Best on day 2.

I think SKT has a strong advantage in all of these games, and should take both sets without going to super Ace.

Why does noone give Bisu a chance in super Ace? He's pretty good PvZ, or so I hear.

Because the maps favour zerg and Bisu's lost to Zero recently, while Jaedong is a freaking monster.

The first match on day 1 seems to be quite decisive. Many of the predictions however seem to underestimate the SKT zergs. At last Hyuk and Thezerg have both played won more than one televised ZvZ before. That is something Killer and ggaemo cannot claim between them.

I'm quite looking forward to Busy vs Hiya. It's not such a stretch that the match will happen. In fact I think one of the SK zergs may just win to allow Bisu to close out the match. If that happens Oz should be in trouble.

One day 2 I think Canata and Thezerg should be able to get one game in between them to allow fantasy and Best to put the pressure on.

All in all I fear Best will fail SK, but one of the zergs could just step it up!
Dear BW Gods, I know it's not autumn (in the Northern hemisphere), but please have mercy on Protoss.

Bisu lost to Zero on a zerg map and against queens. To say that he's not going out because he RECENTLY LOST TO ZERO is a horrible arguement. He has a 65.18% winrate vs zerg. C'mon now. The Revolutionist has a great chance as taking down, if not better, than Fantasy and Canata

Heartbreak is a P map, this is what Protoss progamers told me. Nobody tells that Bisu doesn't stand a chance against JD, of course he has, and i agree that his chances are better than Fantasy's and Canata's. People are just pointing out that Jaedong will be a slight favourite on a zerg favoured maps. And on Destination Jaedong has 2:0 record against Bisu, that says a lot imo.

oh wait..it WAS Heartbreak wasnt it..i thought it was holy world for some reason
...but still, imo Bisu has the greatest chance of taking a game off of Jaedong. Destination isn't THAT imbalanced imo, and bisu DID beat Jaedong in a ACE game...

Well, Bisu beat Jaedong pretty badly the last time they met in an Ace match. As we all know, Jaedong in angry mode = utter rape. Every time you beat Jaedong, your chances of winning the next encounter goes down by 50%. I mean... when was the time last someone beat Jaedong 2 encounters in a row?

Ok, seriously. Bisu has a very good chance, especially since he has more time to practice. Jaedong has to prepare for Bisu and Fantasy. I would go as far as saying it'll be 50/50 between Jaedong and Bisu/Fantasy.

He has to split up his training time about 60/40 for his ZvT vs Fantasy and his ZvZ vs Hyuk.. (actually make it 80/20...) There is a chance Jaedong might not have practiced enough for Bisu. Bisu however has been practicing non-stop for..3 weeks?
