Bold prediction of the week:

Long shot I know, but im sticking to it. First Classic is gonna have to survive getting proxied every game. I have a mildly biased opinion that Classic's PvT is the best PvT in the world. I also feel that Maru is the main threat with and best user of said proxy playstyle, and that's why I predict Classic to go down to Maru if he faces him in the finals. TY is no slouch though, and if he has adopted Proxy as his bread and butter go-to for every game now, you may be right.
TY reverse swept Classic from down 0-3 with 4 consecutive proxies in an online tournament 2 weeks ago. I dare say he's pretty decent at it.

I am going to believe in my favorite Zerg Dark again, hopefully oneday he will win another tournament
Also Statsfighting!

Fair enough lol. Which tournament was that, I think I missed it. I haven't seen TY proxy much, which is where my assumption came from.
Hopefully Classic has spent time learning how to stop the proxies then!

Keen has been doing quite well lately, I could see him beating sOs and soO going to Blizzcon
|
ro8: Maru, sOs, Impact, Stats,soO, Dark, Classic, TY
ro4: sOs, Stats, soO, Classic
finals: sOs 4 - 3 soO
Maru won't win this tournamnet because he won't take it that seriously. sOs to advance to Blizzcon.

Proxies are figured out now, no way KeeN beats sOs.
Same for fantasy unless Classic stopped practice or whatever
soO and sOs have a good shot at Blizzcon
What a stupid way for GuMiho to be eliminated tho

I think out of everyone in the world sOs know proxy are never figure out.

I think soO has best chance of making the 8th spot with this bracket.

Rogue
sOs
Solar
Stats
Bunny
Dark
Classic
TY

Here's what I'm thinking will happen
Ro16: Rogue, sOs > KeeN, Impact > Solar, Stats > Trap, soO > Bunny, Dark > Leenock, Classic > Fantasy, TY > Creator
Ro8: sOs > Rogue, Stats > Solar, Dark > soO, Classic > TY
Ro4: sOs > Stats, Dark > Classic
The Finals: Dark I think is most likely to win here, although I will cheer for sOs. Dark has had much better form this year so he could finally claim his third premier tournament win, but it's also Dark, and he's a Kong, so it's just as likely sOs wins.

Also there's no way Rogue or Maru would deny sOs a blizzcon spot right? I really think this comes down to soO vs sOs for it. There is. What you suggest is basically match-fixing, the ultimate crime in sports. Team strategy is match fixing? Is match fixing when Maru swaps people around so his team mates have easier groups(or at least think so  )? It all comes down what the team strategy is and how the rest of the games happens. But in the end - it's inside the team. Unless somebody from the team would talk nobody will know. Look at Life, nobody knew he was match fixing ;-)
Group selection is completely different. It's like Coca v ByuN. Does no one remember that?

I don't think Maru will practice as much as he did in GSL. He can be still vulnerable to Rogue and sOs.
According to Jin Air house, he's not a diligent practicer at all except when he prepares for top tier tournaments like GSL code S or tournaments with huge price of money like WESG, and Blizzcon. He becomes a lazy harp seal when he plays unimportant tournaments for him.

Nobody predicts Solar to win the tournament?
