Sea > YellOw[ArnC]
I don't think Sea is given enough credit for being a zerg killer. Firebathero is hyped way more often for his TvZ even though Sea has slightly better stats over twice as many games. On the other hand, Yarnc is not given enough credit for being a terran killer. His TvZ win rate is 58%--nothing too exceptional. When one looks more deeply into those stats though, we see that many of those losses come when he is sent to snipe a terran on a T>Z map (RH3, Andromeda, Othello). Still, I think Sea is a more solid player and will prevail here with the help of the map.
Pusan > Horang2
Pusan is a very strong PvP player, his recent wins over members of the 6 dragons affirm this. Horang2 is as of yet unproven in PvP, but it would be sweet if he could maintain his perfect record.
RuBy < Leta
I don't know why MBCGame would send out a zerg sniper on a map where he would likely face another terran, but they did. Ruby is going to get rolled by one of the strongest TvT players ever, indeed one of the strongest overall terrans too. Leta boasts a ridiculous 75% win ratio in TvT, which isn't even the result of rolling scrubs. He has recent victories over fOrGG, Mind, and Sea.
Saint > go.go
I haven't been following either of these players, but I sure hate go.go.
