It seems that Breakaway is more prone to ties than any game in recent memory, which may be the reason for the rise in 4 and 5 match eliminations.

That being said, a 12-12 tie is quite impressive, though we can't really compare it to scores from previous years. (I guess it could be, but I don't feel like doing the math...)
