Predictions:
+ Show Spoiler +
Thezerg <God's Garden> Luxury
I somehow think Luxury will take this. Don't ask me why. (I think it's SKT1 failzergs)
BeSt <Heartbreak Ridge> HoeJJa
Hoejja is 3-7 in his last 10 ZvPs, while BeSt is 4-6 in his last 10 PvZs. However, with the ridiculous map stats of 5-1 PvZ, I expect Best to win this after receiving help from Bisu and the other dragons.
Bisu <Neo Medusa> Violet
Bisu is on a monstrous 8-game winning streak against Protoss, so while Bisu will be taking this, he will meet fierce resistance by Violet, who is on a 3-game winning streak against Protoss, and has even defeated GuemChi (who ironically defeated Bisu, or else Bisu would have been on a 11-game PvP winning streak in proleague).
fantasy <Destination> Flash
Fantasy is 2-1 Flash in Proleague, with the 2 wins coming from recent games. With Flash's recent not-so-up-to-standard performance, I expect Fantasy to take the game with either great strategic play or a simple run-over mid-game.
Closer <Battle Royal> Closer
SK Telecom T1 < 3 - 1 > KTF MagicNs

Recommended games:
+ Show Spoiler +
+ Show Spoiler [Game 2] +
Great early pressure to late-game play by Hoejja. 3 Base Zerg > 3 Base Protoss.
+ Show Spoiler [Game 3] +
One of the scariest and most intense PvP in recent times. Pimp plays by Violet.
+ Show Spoiler [Game 4] +
Short, fast-paced and micro-oriented TvT.

First post. I'm the guy who made the sign asking for the 4-set. Thankfully I was not disappointed. It was a great experience overall. The place was intensely packed, I wasn't sure that I'd be able to get in for awhile. Being a foreigner pays off because people don't really tell you where you aren't supposed to be. I was able to find Flash and get a picture with him. Awesome times. If you are ever in Seoul it's a must.![[image loading]](http://photos-c.ak.fbcdn.net/hphotos-ak-snc1/hs083.snc1/4570_563027077109_4807768_33186722_6109531_n.jpg)

Personally I would want to see Boxer vs anyone, where he showcases a super strat to overcome the imbalance of the map.
