Hyuk is going to Hyuk his way to victory for T1!!! Was hoping Bisu would play har har har!

Bisu on banner but no Bisu on lineup 
Hyuk's ZvT will be tested.
I may have to watch both channels simultaneously because KT Rolster vs KHAN looks good too =D

Hyuk bonjwa, definitely.

I did not expect such favorable matchups for MBC. There's a solid chance they take this 3-1(Pusan dropping).

Yeah, the matchup seems really good for MBC.
My guess is either 3-0 MBC or 3-2 SKT (or 3-2 MBC potentially if Bisu doesn't want to play his old team).
Predictions:
Fantasy < Saint - I like Fantasy, but he's really inconsistent against non-Jaedong zergs.
Hyuk < Sea - Yes I love Hyuk. But this is a bad matchup for Hyuk on an even worse map. Barring some epic cheese coming from the hivemind that is SKT coaching, Sea should win easy. And even if Hyuk cheeses a lead, he could easily throw it away by suiciding his army or something.
Best > Pusan - Best has produced some good games recently (both on the winning and losing end). I'm excited about this game, and hope that he can pull out a victory.
Canata > Light - I overrate Canata's TvT. But unless Fantasy and Best can both manage to not screw up their games, this is SKT's best shot at an ace game.
Bisu > Anyone - Let's face it. It's Bisu. There is no one on MBC that could reasonably not be the underdog against him.
OR
Fantasy > Sea - To be honest, I don't see why MBC would send one of their Terran aces if it gets this far. If SKT sends Bisu, their chances are slim-to-none anyway. Their best shot would be maximizing their ability to beat the alternative option, which is most likely Fantasy or Canata, both of which are way better at TvT than TvZ. So, if MBC is thinking this way (which they probably aren't, seeing as I'm sleep deprived and coming up with stupid predictions), the match will probably be:

Yeah, pretty abysmal chances for MBC here. The only path to victory I can see for them is Saint > Fantasy, Sea > Hyuk, and Light > Canata for a 3-1 win, and that's a pretty small chance.

Game1 Fantasy vs Saint
Fantasy is the favorite here, but given his recent games, and also the fact that Saint sometimes plays wonderfully solid, this game is less one-sided than most would think. I think Fantasy will take this one, but I wouldn't that upset if Saint pulled it on this one.
Game2: Hyuk vs Sea
Hyuk is sort of the new zerg sensation, and winning this game could definitely earn him some respect aside from the respect that comes from fanboys. I honestly think he can pull this one, unless Sea summons his former self to play for him.
Game3: BeSt vs Pusan
Pusan refuses to fade away like almost all of his generation peers, and he truly shows why he is called "The Spirit". However he is matched against one of the best representatives of modern macro toss, although he is not in his best shape. Best has the edge on this, but I really hope to see Pusan old-school BeSt.
It should end 3-0, but hath one of the T1 players fail, we will be facing a terribly boring TvT. If Dimlight wins, we will have either Fantasy or Bisu step up, and I don't think any of them will fail to deliver in that position.

Can't beleive people are writing off pusan so badly =/
Fantasy will smash saint, saint is terrible at ZvT while Fantasy has the best in the world
Sea over hyuk? possible, but I think that hyuk will crush sea since he has momentum
Pusan will take best, since pusan has momentum and a sick pvp (so does best, but meh!)
Light should take canata as well
So then we come to ace and ugh =/ I have no idea light vs bisu probably

prepare to all get banned for saying the b-word!
No bisu? getting punished for losing in the osl obv.
