Picking from top 8 seeds

Hello All,

Just wanted to start a discussion and find out how other teams feel about being able to pick teams from the top 8 seed. ex. seed 1 picks seed 2, seed 2 picks seed 3, so on and so forth.

Now I know there exceptions and teams don't always do this.

In my own opinion, I feel that teams should only be able to pick from teams outside the top 8. I feel there is often super alliances of seed 1 and 2 at comps that I've attended. Again, there are always some exceptions where this isn't the case.

if they take away the option of picking top 8 seeds, you are creating a slightly more even playing field. You are also giving teams that usually don't get picked a chance to play in the finals.

I look forward to seeing your opinions!

thanks!
