There are only 6 tanks that Pro Players highly considered in the Playoffs
1. Grock - S+ Tier
2. Akai - A+ Tier
3. Khufra - S+ Tier
4. Minotaur - S Tier
5. Belerick - B+ Tier
6. Franco - B+ Tier
In the Game 3 of Bren Vs. AA, Grock was prioritized by AA.
Bren banned Akai as their third ban. Why?
They picked Harith, Chou and Leomord. Banning Khufra would be better, right? But they notice that AA do not prioritize choosing Khufra. Akai has 100% win rate in the hands of AA. They've experienced it in their previous series and even in the Game 1 of this series.
Then AA banned Minotaur which is questionnable since in their 2 series, Minotaur never won a game even in the hands of Bren or AA.
Belerick was chosen over Khufra because of Claude that AA prioritize along with Grock.
That is why Belerick is really the game changer. Not only in the draft picking phase but also in the teamfights itself.
Bren was totally outdrafted by AA in this game especially when AA last picked Minsitthar which counters everyone in the Bren's Lineup.
Minsitthar counters Harith's Chrono Dash, Leomord's dashes, Chou's dashes, and Karrie's Phantom Step.
And since they are forced to be within a certain range because of Minsitthar's Ult, Belerick's Ult makes them pay since the range of Belerick's Ult is enough to absorb all of the damage within Minsitthar's Ult.

Kimmy is banned in the Games 2-5 of the Bren Vs. AA series. Bren used it in the first game but lost.
We all know that Belerick is a direct counter to Kimmy. But since Belerick is not so popular in the Playoffs, Kimmy is a real threat in the perspective of Bren.
Why does the Kimmy pick isn't successful in the Game 1 of Bren Vs. AA BO5 series?
Jawhead is the crucial pick of Arkangel. Unlike Hayabusa which they choose in their BO3 series, they learned that an Assassin will still have a hard time to reach Kimmy in the backline.
That is why with Jawhead's tankiness, agility, and skill set, AA manage to counter Kimmy.
