I remember the game, Ayesee said that it was a possible play because it opened up the draft and he kinda is right. He also said that it was a good plan for a team that didn't have a plan. It's kinda good, but also when it come down to your picks you have to have a good grasp and what you want to do based on their picks. No extra time means a possible random pick and random pick unless you are really lucky probably means GG.
High risk for kinda high reward. It could help you get heroes you want because they have to pick their bans much more carefully. I really wish Zenith would have shown up to play though they really dropped the ball in their series against iG. That was the series for 1st place and Zenith didn't show much. |

You have to remember that its iG, theres a reason theyre #1 in the world. 9/10 times iG could probably out play you so you need to pull out some special tactics. Its a big deal to even take a game off them. It was the same way a few years ago with EHOME and then before that with MYM

This is true about iG, they are the best team in the world right now. However that doesn't mean they are unbeatable. Although there is a larger hero pool used in the east, the games are alot more stable/tame than western games and that doesn't really help bolster iG's best in the world title. iG is considered the best because they won TI2 and have an incredible streak going, but Zenith had a comparable streak and NaVi sent iG down to the loser's bracket in TI2. With a slight alterations in meta with each new tournament its hard to gauge the teams based on past performances. The only thing that you really can draw conclusively is if the team is stable in their gameplay.

Really its not a bad strategy just think about all the first bans in the meta that you wouldn't want to play against and you have to pick the two you hate the most
