Artsiom "fng" Barshak the support of team Alliance commented on the changes in the patch 7.27 for Captain’s Mode.
Artsiom said that he likes the changes in the stage of picks/bans for Captain`s Mode, although he may not agree with some points:
I think that people were more happy about the changes than the fact of the four bans. I personally always like the changes, although I may not agree with them, nevertheless it is always fun and interesting to learn something.
In addition, Barshak expressed his opinion about the cancellation of double picks for teams:
My first thought was that it hits the flex of the heroes, because the first stage closes the second pick, and the second stage closes the first pick, and at the same time, the teams have 4 bans on the last pick.
In conclusion, Fng suggested considering a different draft order with another additional ban:
With the current pool of heroes, I would say to add an additional ban, but you need a different pick/ban order.
On June 29, Valve released patch 7.27 for Dota 2, which changed Captain’s Mode. In the mode, the number of bans was changed from 4/1/1 to 2/3/2 and the sequence of picks in the first draft stage.
