I like Groups but I personally wish that there would be more teams. Each # 1 Seed gets their own Group so; 6 Groups with 4 teams in each group. 4 Teams from each region(LCK-LPL-NA-EU-LMS-IWC) why does the LMS and IWC regions only get 2 anyways?
6 GROUPS with 4 teams in each groups and include the MSI rankings for each group. Instead of a Best of one make Groups a best of 3 but still have each Best of still only count 1 point. So if X team beat Y team 2-1 they still only get 1 point. Teams practice in a Best of Format for a year and the biggest tournament of the year is a round robin group stage ? WHY?
GROUP A LCK #1 IWC EU # 4 LMS # 4
GROUP B NA # 1 IWC EU # 3 LPL # 4
GROUP C LPL # 1 LMS # 3 NA # 4 EU # 2
GROUP D LMS # 1 LPL # 3 NA # 3 LCK # 3
GROUP E EU # 1 NA # 2 LPL # 2 LMS # 2
GROUP F IWC LCK # 2 IWC LCK # 4
2 teams from each Group advances so 12 teams total
6 teams per GROUP. Each team faces off against each other in a BO3 and the two teams with the best overall records from each group advances.
4 teams left and the team with the better record in one group faces against the team with the worst record in the other group and vice versa.
2 teams left and that would be the Finals.
Just my thought on a new Worlds
