you underestimate hiya. hiya's TvT has been looking pretty good as of late. since nov. 13, (which, coincidentally enough, was his last WIN against FLASH), he was 9-5 TvT, he was 6-1 on colosseum, and you can't deny that hiya was looking pretty good against flash until he failed to scout flash's hidden fourth.
also, jaedong's ZvT isn't up to par. (besides that series vs. hwasin, but that was a bo5. bo1 jaedong and bo5 jaedong are for some reason in totally different mindsets) and he's only played on colosseum once, in which he used an unorthodox build against hwasin in said series.
colosseum isn't that too good for ZvT either, while all mirror matchups can generally go either way.
true, skill-wise, jaedong rapes hiya and probably would have been the best choice for most situations. however, given the circumstances, i honestly think hiya had a better shot at flash, and he had a very good shot, but he just never capitalized on his 2port advantage.
