Worlds format sucks

so we finally get all the best teams in the world together and we get to see them play.... ONLY 3 OTHER TEAMS. having a group stage just sucks - this is a fact, but you have to have one because there are too many teams at worlds. so how do you fix it? easy, just knock the number of teams down to 10. 2 from na, eu, korea, and asia, and then 2 from the play in round. there is no point to having a bunch of garbage teams at worlds that have no chance of winning and are just fodder for the decent teams. Taiwan being its own major region is a joke. that's like California getting its own region.

so then once you only have 10 teams you can have a seeding round where EVERY TEAM PLAYS EVERY OTHER TEAM ONCE. this alone would make worlds so much better - actually seeing all the teams play each other. it would be a similar number of games as the current group stage system except theres no RNG about teams getting into easy or hard groups. after the seeding round the bottom 2 teams are out then you have your 1-8 seeds for the best of 5 rounds. RITO PLEASE I WANT TO ACTUALLY SEE GOOD TEAMS PLAY AGAINST EACH OTHER AT WORLDS.

So like....season 3 only everyone is together? And like other tangibles we've all kinda gone back n forth over?

I mean was it really not enough that the 4 best teams made the top 4 at Worlds or has that been overshadowed by the 3-0 final?

I think the easiest solution is to make 2 groups of 8 teams instead of 4 groups of 4 teams. BTW taiwan is > NA and EU. TW won worlds. You will respect
