Is it time for a change of draft structure? If so how could we improve it?

It's not supposed to make the alliances even, it's supposed to make them more even than if the first alliance got 2 picks in a row. If we wanted it to be truly even their would be no incentive to seed higher because it wouldn't increase your chances of winning, suddenly everyone is sandbagging and throwing matches because it doesn't matter if you win.
Serpentine draft is good, there's a reason most other competitive sports use it.
