Watch how you approach the topic of match fixing. You can speculate, saying "I'm not so sure about the finals, something doesn't sit right with me," but if you are going to outright accuse players of match fixing you need something more than your word.
TL takes match fixing/abuse seriously and as such there is a burden a proof when you are accusing players.

I'm tottaly with you on this one. That's pretty absurd. Let's hope that there will be some VODs of these games available later.

Did I just get hate for not hating on Blizz hard enough?

Had Mvp been on his game Sen's and Naniwa's chance to beat him would've been exactly the same. But considering Mvp lost a GSL finals earlier today and isn't playing his best, I'd say Sen has a better chance at taking him down.
Nestea is gonna be helping MVP though, so I'd say he has a better chance against Sen than if Naniwa made it through.
Again, unfortunate that Naniwa lost, but Sen needs this as well. He needs to get back on the international radar, and to reclaim the position of a top foreigner Zerg after IdrA and Stephano's awesome performances these last few weeks.

nestea won blizzcon? you from the future, sir?
Obviously Sen/Naniwa have 0% chance of beating Nestea in a series.
Naniwa and BratOK both took a game off him in group stage.
Anyone can take a game but when it comes to a BO5/7 it's 0% chance for them.
All games are bo3, the only exception is the overall final where the player coming from the lower bracket has to win 2x bo3.
winning two consecutive Bo3's against Nestea would be harder than winning a single Bo5 I think :/
I ran the numbers. Two consecutive Bo3's are actually easier to win.
Kidding me? Seriously? What numbers did you run?
Herp derp. I switched my probabilities. Anyway:
Let p be the probability of Nestea winning a given set.
Then the probability of a challenger winning a best of three is (2p+1)(1-p)^2, and the probability of the challenger winning two in a row is (2p+1)^2(1-p)^4.
The probability of the challenger winning a best of five, however, is (1+3p+6p^2)(1-p)^3.
The ratio of the former to the latter is (2p+1)^2(1-p)/(1+3p+6p^2) = (1+3p-4p^3)/(1+3p+6p^2) < 1.
