The best teams don't always seed first.
Especially this year, with the coop bridge worth so much.

Non-serpentine rewards a better performance during qualifications, which I don't think should be done.

Serpentine also gives the lower seeds a higher chance of being successful, which (in my opinion,) is important, because everyone deserves a chance to win, and because sometimes great teams seed low, especially in tougher tournaments (and with coopertition being such a wild card.)
