What I heard (though this doesnt appear to be documented in this post & writeup) is that Legacy & HoF teams don't count towards the number of teams a District can send. Now I don't know exactly what that means (or if it is the final word) in the case that a District HoF team wins an outside regional. Are they considered prequalified and thus don't affect this particular case? or does their win still take away a slot (thus deincentivizing HoF teams to win outside regionals??)

As it is, I know many Legacy & HoF teams decide not to attend their DCMP because it would eat up one of the spots for a cusp team allowed at that event in the current model. Im not sure this new model does anything to change that.
