That was some statistic said at either the Summit, ESL One, or Dreamhack. That was probably a short term stat, like on a particular patch. It has certainly happened if we're counting all of Dota. I dunno, I thought it was an absurd stat, and it surprised me too. But I've watched all the big tournaments since February this year, and haven't seen that big of a comeback.
So you've watched basically no dota.

I'm really confused by this VG draft again. :/

I'm new, what are you trying to say?
Watching 300-400+ games is not no Dota. No need to be an elitist asshole.

They said that there wouldn't be sound but it seemed implied we would still get video but as you said we have nothing. If it's an issue it will be fixed after this bo3. So if there's no cam for the next match then it's likely just not going to happen.
I think they'll use them though.

Why are we having a super cereal conversation about Nahaz stats. 30% of the time when conversations are had about Nahaz stats on a full moon it's super serious. You should send an application for stat man at joindota. I'm overqualified.

I'm not being elistest. You said that you've never seen it before which doesn't mean much if you are new to dota. You're the one that brought up how much dota you've watched when it doesn't really matter.

I feel like the Draft reserve time has been telling us everything we need to know about this match-up. Newbee is just so smooth and strong in their drafting here and it seems like VG is just completely rattled by it.
Both games VG has burned all of their reserve time compared to almost the full duration for Newbee.

That was some statistic said at either the Summit, ESL One, or Dreamhack. That was probably a short term stat, like on a particular patch. It has certainly happened if we're counting all of Dota. Those stats are also always skewed because a better team will almost never go 0-10 vs a worse team. The vast majority of the time, if a team is up 10-0, they were heavily favoured to begin with. If you took those replays and replayed them with top teams on the 0-10 side, I'm sure they'd turn some of them around. I know it makes sense. I'm just saying, wouldn't you think this would happen at least a couple times in the history of Dota? I'm not basing my argument on that. http://www.datdota.com/win_expectancy.php?patch=0&type=4
This already shows that 4 tower advantage does not expect a 100% win rate at 15 minutes. Just at 5, which is a bit absurd.
Your stats are simply wrong, obviously there have been 0-10 comebacks in the history of Dota. Noone even has acess to stats from the whole history of Dota to make that statement.
