Predictions
+ Show Spoiler +
XellOs > Shine
EffOrt < Luxury
Nbs[gm]/Kwanro > YellOw[ArnC]/Zeus
Much > Chalrenge
CJ Takes it 3-1
Shine has a decent TvT. However, what makes me think that XellOs will take this is the fact that he's been doing pretty well in TvT during the Proleague season. One loss iirc. 1-0 to CJ Entus.
EffOrt? Who is EffOrt? He may have won his first televised match vs firebathero, but Luxury has been around for a long time and is one of the best at the ZvZ matchup. OGN ties it up 1-1.
I'm no expert at 2v2 so I may be off on my prediction here. But Nbs/sAviOr wasn't that bad of a team. Also Nbs, when sAviOr was pretty much useless in a 2v2, beat the other team by 1v2, which is pretty impressive. + He has Kwanro, who I believe is much better than sAviOr right now. So I believe that CJ will take this match and lead 2-1.
Much is really solid at PvP and also won free in the Arena MSL 2008. Chalrenge, on the other hand is 1-1 in PvP through the 2008 proleague season. But who knows - if a standard game, Much will definitely take this for CJ and win 3-1. But if Chalrenge decides to pull off some gay cheese such as a cannon rush (like vs free on Blue Storm), it might be different. But CJ 3-1 here.

How to watch
[*]Yaoyuan should work, with some delay to the Daum stream. Works only in Internet Explorer and requires the TVAnts plugin (download)
[*]The games will also be watchable via the Daum player (guide). If you receive an error message, refresh the page and/or change the streaming room.
If R1CH or Corinthos posts a stream, I'll update this OP.
Other than that, I'm excited for this matchup! That's why I'm making this pretty early. I LOVE CJ!
