Shatter can be played this way, but I don't think it's an effective strategy on average. I haven't seen a match of Shatter end in favor of a team that tried to avoid all conflict. When an aggressive team shows up and starts getting Battle Highs, stealing bases, denying Ice, or taking opportunities to kill opponents contesting Ice (situational) — that team tends to pull into 1st and stay there.

Overcautious teams that try to wait it out and just race to new Ice usually settle around 2nd place.
