The Ace match should be Archon or 3vs3. Would make it more fun

They say 3v3 and Archon, but if the going gets tough we know who's going to show up for those matches!

Archon looks like it will be very Kimchi-favored, since they're probably going to play T while Taco will play Z, which is pretty T favored (see the 4v4 archon showmatch w/ all the top EU pros, e.g. Harstem POV https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8GPupD6wP_o)

Also it's not fair that Kimchi can field a micro bot in PartinG, this should be a humans-only showmatch.

So.. A single 4v4 showmatch between pro's show that archon is T favored even though for a lot of those guys it was there first archon match in more than a year?!
Anyhow, with how the egg hotkeying works and multiple way of harassing players T in 3+ numbers seems to have the edge for sure. But with all due respect to Jimrising, he together with Special having to play zerg as well is the main reason why the Koreans are more favored in that match anyway

Be sure to listen to the Korean player streams during archon and the 3v3. Screaming at each other in broken English is what makes these Kimchi showmatchs hilarious.

Sorry, this isn't the only data point, I think T is favored for the same reason you do, I just wanted to provide an example of it in play. I also wasn't expecting it to be a decisive factor, given the large range of skills across the two teams
