I really disagree. The odds were with KT 100%. Things just don't always work out that way.
815 was 9-1 in his last 10 against zergs including wins over Shine and Jaedong. He's always been an excellent ZvZer.
Violet is a major favorite over Pure. He was 11-2 in his last PvP, including 2 wins over Pure and a win over Bisu in his best matchup. Violet has a 68% in PvP, with only 48% for Pure. There's no "slight" favorite here; Violet is a thousand times better at PvP (among other things), but games don't always go to the favorite.
Forgg isn't the same player he used to be, but Roro never has been (Forgg as bad as he's been, still has a higher ELO). They're both mediocre players these days; there's no favorite anymore.

stats mean jack shit in a matchup like zvz (argue for jaedong all you want but most of the time it's either superiority of skill or bo win)
pure is a really underrated player.
forgg always sucked and will keep sucking, especially when he is the underdog against someone like roro.
