In both T1 vs GENG and KT vs HLE, both series had a game with an early Cassiopeia pick into Akali ban on phase 2, why? Afaik, this matchup is very Cassiopeia favoured, even looking at the team comps as a whole it doesn't seem like Akali provides the best value into the Cassiopeia comp. What makes Akali such a scary pick that it's worth a ban in these scenarios?
