Thanks for sharing the video. I came across it on the BB facebook page (or was it Twitter) earlier but it seemed so long so I didn't bother to watch it, but thankfully this time I did. It's really interesting how dominant teams playing M2M while 3-2 doesn't seem to be as successful. It's also made me want to look into ISO offenses and Princeton (although I have played Princeton pretty often but to me it's only an offense to make sure my players can last 48 minutes, I have never looked into how it works xD)

However, I was wondering - since the sample only consisted of B3 games, could high passing across all positions be the key to break 3-2? Could the lack of secondaries or lack of balanced players in U21 games or lower division games affect the effectiveness of 3-2?

In my opinion, 3-2 without SB is a gamble. I wouldn't run it without at least one of my bigs having high SB.

Yes, I agree with that. I read somewhere that zone defenses increases the chances for help defense, which would increase the chances of a block. Plus with the recent trend that stresses on the importance of SB, I usually try to have players with high SB (be it my own team or the U21).
