Wait, did I miss something? I always thought of the serpentine draft as one of the best things for FIRST competitiveness. If you check the numbers the first alliance (and thus the first seed), still win over 50% of all regionals. IMO the serpentine draft is one of the only things making the lowest five alliances competitive.
I don't think of it as pulling the top down, I think of it as pushing the top and the bottom closer together.
(sorry if this is derailing a thread, it's kind of a pet peeve of mine.)
