I think samsung has the advantage. They have three good players (Stork, Jangbi, FBH) and decent zerg line up. On the other hand Lecaf has two good players only (Jaedong, ForGG) and their protoss line up sucks after Anytime.
Right, but Lecaf has more of a supporting crew with HiyA, Lomo, Young, and to an extent BackHo, where all of them can pull out a win, while Khan only has great. Anytime's not in Lecaf anymore.
I wouldn't automatically say Lecaf's "bench" is deeper than Khan's. It's hard to tell with players who just don't play much.
One thing to note is that head-to-head, Khan > Lecaf > T1 > Khan. So playoff positioning could matter later on.
if Khan keeps sending out Frozean, who is now 0-8, I think it means that they lack a good bench
Yeah, but much worse than Backho? Both are solid players who have done stuff in the starleagues and sucking in the proleagues. Juni has had some success and TT actually plays well on low money money maps.

IMHO you cannot determine the head-to-head positon of these team with only one series. They can win against each other depending on line up and player condition at the time of the match. But it is for sure that all three of them have good proleague roster.
Actually 2 series. And the results were fairly one-sided.

They've had more series in the past with similar lineups.
