LiquidTyler < dNaniwa - PvP on Blistering Sands. Both sides are gonna do some type of 4 gate. Coinflip. LiquidRet > dKiLLeR - ZvZ on Shakuras, probably on the londer side for ZvZ. Ret wins. LiquidTLO < dSeleCT - Another close Game, both players have been playing well. Giving it to SeleCT, though. LiquidJinro > dSjoW - Really wish all these matches weren't mirrors, but this should still be another cool Game with Jinro coming off a big finish 2 GSL's in row and SjoW winning IEM. LiquidTLO < dNaniwa - Complete guess.

I'd say this will be a 3:1 win to Dignitas
Naniwa > Tyler Killer > Ret SeleCT < TLO SjoW > Jinro
Im not sure about the first three but the last one will be SjoW winning, Im 100% sure about that one.

Wait, is TLO sticking to terran for the premier league? I'm still gonna take TLO over SeleCT. I think it comes down to the impossible to call ace match, can't wait for the games.

I think this will be rather close, nAni is strong but I believe pvp is his weakest MU, on the other hand Tyler has not been impressing me at all in sc2 and I think he is slightly overrated.
Ret and TLO should be able to take their games without too much trouble. Sjow vs Jinro will be very interesting, Sjow's best MU is probably TvT (taking out the terrans at IEM only dropping a few games) and it's also hard to say exactly how good Jinro would do against an EU terran.
Actually the ACE match is a B03, just to clarify.

If Tyler brings his A game it'll go 3-1, with Ret losing his ZvZ. Tyler has been off lately though, so if he drops his game it'll come down to the ace match. The closet match with probably be Jinro and SjoW. Jinro is just simply better.
In my opinion, there are some common mistakes people in this thread are making. First, SjoW's TvT is not untouchable. Yes, SjoW did VERY well in TvT in IEM. But he also dropped a BO3 0-2 to EmpireDiestar recently in one of those 1v1 tournaments in the 4Players League (source here). Sure SjoW is one of the best in Europe and had a good TvT run recently. But people are just giving him too much credit for his TvT.
The second mistake is underestimating Tyler. It sucks that he has been off recently, but if he's been practicing he'll take Naniwa apart with some midgame timing attack. Tyler seems to have a knack for developing extremely powerful midgame pushes (see Complexity V 1v1 #1 where he destroys Drewbie) and if he's dedicated enough time to prepare for this match it will be no contest.

Dignitas will win. I'd be comfortably fielding any of their four players against any player in NA/EU.

This is going to be AWESOME.

This is a good matchup. I think team liquid will show why it is the #1 foreign team in the world with this match.

You sir and under estimating Naniwa, His PvP one of the strongest and he is on fire unlike tyler who is having a bit of a slump. But all we can do is predict, the outcome could be quite surprising.
