Despite people saying ZvZ is a coin toss, I think Sziky is going to win this hands down.

If factory is banned, you pretty much have to go bio because there would be no other way to spend your minerals. That would mean that you could spend your gas on: ghosts, battlecruisers/wraiths, or science vessels (I'm excluding special-purpose units).

If you want to be boring and have low apm you'd probably be best off with medic+marine and bcs/wraiths.

If your opponent has a lot of bio or ghosts you could go vessels, since EMP and irradiate are strong. You could defense matrix one of their medics (which your units won't target automatically) and irradiate it. They can't kill the medic because it's defense matrixed so they would have to split their army and try to move it away. To counter this, your opponent could either use restoration or have a dropship next to their bio army to pick up irradiated units (to save some research costs). You could also defense matrix and irradiate one of your flying units and use it to eraser the marines but that seems like it wouldn't work.

If you're fighting BCs with marines, defense matrix seems like it would be strong. Since the D-matrixed marine is usually in front, you don't have to worry as much about irradiate being used on it.

Ghosts have higher range than range-upgraded marines, so they might be useful in a large bio army. Also, your opponent might not notice cloaked ghosts in a marine army so they should be pretty durable. If you have no army and your opponent has BCs, you could go mass ghosts + nukes, lock down thier army, and nuke it. Normally you would need wraiths to kill locked down BCs; I'm not sure if bio has enough DPS.

Optical flare wouldn't really do much to vessels because Terran still has scan.

Also, if one terran transitions from bio to bcs, they probably won't have 3/3 air upgrades yet (whereas their bio should be 3/3 assuming they didn't go mass wraiths early) so that would create a timing where bio is good against bcs.

Brackets are up.
SC is like sex. You should play often, but never too hard. And you should only try hard when it matters.

Hacklebeast you should be excited about Babo playing in this. Even though he 2v2 player, he is a league above most top 2v2ers.

If the set correlating to your set doesn't finish beforehand, I'm sure Bakuryu will play you. I just suggest you hurry up.
