But in team shiai, I think a TIE can be almost as precious as a WIN.
For example, placing very unorthodox style kenshi at chuuken/fukushou position to negate opponent can be good tactics? or not?

i think that's why you often see a jodan/nito kenshi in the chuken position. matches against jodan/nito often end in a tie, possibly more so than chudan vs. chudan. and in a team match, it's arguably more important that each player not lose, though of course it would be ideal if they won.

and by the time you get to the chuken position, you can kind of gauge which way the match is leaning. and even if both your sempo and jiho lose, if your chuken can pull off a tie, there is at least some hope that your fukusho and taisho can fight back.
