  1. Assign circuit points based on summer split finish before playoffs.
  2. Play the initial rounds of playoffs in studio as usual.
  3. Get the summer finals venue for 3 days. 3a. On Friday, play the first match of the gauntlet and the 3rd place match. 3b. On Saturday play the next gauntlet match and the summer finals. 3c. Play all remaining gauntlet matches on Sunday.
  4. Seed teams for worlds as follows: 1st seed: summer champion 2nd seed: gauntlet champion 3rd seed: circuit points invitation
  5. Send teams that did not get invited to worlds to Rift Rivals.

The third point is actually what the LPL does in merging their finals and gauntlet into the same venue. Other than that it does get me thinking about a "Build a season" idea.
