Imho the most crucial match-up to ensure our victory would be pairing Fantasy vs Stats, on a map that's not to terrible for TvP (not Outlier?). I absolutely trust Bisu and everything, but if there's anything that im slightly worried of, it'll be his ability to toss the coin.
On the other hand, pitting Flash against Bisu most likely would be what KT wants to happen.
A little bit of my own prediction.
Electric Circuit: By.Sun Here's where i predict our (awesome) semi-rookie will fight the Ultimate Weapon. Clearly a bad idea, but while writing the prediction, i came here last, so by.Sun is here by default. Good luck sweetheart <3 u ll need it >.<
Outlier: n.Die_soO. Bisu has been coming out on Outlier a lot. Seeing as this is a P map, and Bisu's currently looking the weakest vs a P, it seems almost obvious that KT would want to send out a P to fight him.. Wooki would be my bet. If i were Coach park i would throw a feint here and put our vP sniper n.Die_soO forward to fight this rookie Protoss. Seeing as there's been only 3 days since our last game, and SKT's tradition of "Map Specialist" style, we might just see Bisu again tho.
Chain Reaction: BeSt SKT has fielded only BeSt or Zergs here, CH would probably be KT's choice vs the Zergs, and despite BeSt winning a few vZs recently, i don't think CH fears him yet. Knowing Coach Park though, there probably won't be a feint, and BeSt will come out here on Chain Reaction as expected.
Jade: Fantasy This is the easiest choice for me. I feel that KT won't be wasting Flash on Jade, since he ll serve better on Ground Zero or Electric Circuit. So putting Fantasy here will almost surely guarantee a P (or Mind, but why do i feel that he won't be playing?). Hopefully Fantasy will be able to decimate KT's 2nd Ace Stats here on Jade.
Ground Zero: Bisu Putting Bisu on a map where Flash might come out sound like a bad idea. But as a Bisu fan, i strongly believe that he can fight and win against any opponent anyway, the current Bonjwa included. Plus we are more likely to see a Zerg on Ground Zero, so i ll put Bisu here.
I'm not familiar enough w KT's line-up to predict their appearance here.

Very true. I think Outlier will likely be a PvP sniper, either Wooki or Stats (more likely Stats since he has a proven ability to win vs SKT zergs as well).
Flash will go on Jade or Electric circuit--like Bisu, he has a tendency to focus on two or three maps per season. Probably Jade, actually, since Stats and Action both have 0-1 and 0-2 records on that map.
Hoejja is a matchup sniper whereas Action specializes in Jade and Electric Circuit like Flash. Therefore I expect to see Hoejja come out on Chain Reaction trying to snipe down a P.
Action is likely coming out on Electric Circuit, and he will likely lose as Rain favors 2-base timing attacks while Action favors 4-base hive rushes.
Wooki is coming out last, likely, and he will probably have a snipe build prepared vs. either Fantasy or Bisu.
I'm doing a little bit of analysis on this, and will add something tomorrow.
Looking at the matchups, this is what might happen:
Action < By.Sun Stats > Soo (or Bisu if SKT is stubborn, although with Bisu it could swing either way) Hoejja = Best (could go either way, Bests PvZ has improved immensely this round) Flash > Fantasy (safest call of the night, Fantasy's TvT early-game decisionmaking has been completely wack this round and I expect Flash to end things fast with him) Wooki = Soo, or Wooki = Bisu (this is the match I'm most nervous about--the map order pretty much forces the rookie to go last and close things out. Hope KT coach has the balls to do this as it would give KT the best theoretical chance of winning. However, if Wooki meets Bisu I expect a very, very sick build coming out of Wooki. With Soo, I think Wooki can easily clean things out. However, if Bisu is in set 2, KT coach could just decide to send Mind out for the last set, and Mind's TvZ would probably wreck Soo's ZvT)

But but but... Stats actually has a chance of winning that. No. I'd rather send out our secret weapon... The mighty, the fearsome, the amazing... HYUK!!! Nobody else dominates Stats like Hyuk does. Poor Chinlesstoss doesn't have a prayer against the unstoppable force that is Hyuk.

Wooki can win against Zerg and protoss hes afraid of terran or at least thats what he and the rest of the team claims,if he plays a Zerg I'm confident that he will win.
As a SKT fan, I'd love to see any of the following matchups which result in us winning:
Bisu v. Action/CH soO v. Stats Best v. Mind s2 v. Action/CH Sun v. Hoejja Fantasy v. Flash (to be honest, this is really our best chance to defeat The Ultimate Weapon, so long as Fantasy plays at his strategic peak)
As a Starcraft fan, I think the following matchups would be perfect:
Bisu v. Flash (every macro game between the two have been epic, so long as Bisu goes Arbiter/Templar tech) Best v. Flash Fantasy v. Flash Bisu v. Hoejja Bisu v. Action Hyuk v. Flash Bisu v. Stats Best v. Stats Fantasy v. Stats soO v. Stats Fantasy v. Mind Sun v. Flash

Bisu vs Flash would be awesome, as would Bisu vs Stats. So would Stats vs Fantasy (remember WL game between the two? It was fucking ridiculous, lol)
