Well it's really hard to determine the "top two teams." Or top 4 and even 10. Maybe just creating a top tier is more appropriate.

When I was at World's watching Galileo, I for sure thought 118 and 1114 were the "top two teams." But sure enough, they were beaten by the likes of 1477, 610, and 1241.

Top tier teams can be beaten any day of the week (We actually played a part in giving 1477 their first match loss at LSR) and honestly Champs has a lot to do with luck (mainly the luck of the draw).
