You are correct, of the regional winners and 3 major awards, only 2 of those 6 teams weren't already going. Which is what I was thinking about, mea culpa.
That generated a possibility of at most 3 wild cards even though only 2 of a potential 6 teams had received invites.
Of those three wild cards allocated to the finalist alliance, 5576 had already won rookie all star so it didn't use one. That essentially left championship spots on the table.
Under the system I proposed, 2 additional championship spots would have been offered to the highest seeded teams who weren't already advancing. That would have been the number 5 seed 3883 (Data Bits) and number 6 seed 2667 (Knights of the Valley).
