I can see one flawed premise. If the #1 seed is so horrible that no one wants to ally with them, your team as #8 captain will have the opportunity to beat them in the quarterfinals. Then you would be coming up against a weakened #4 or #5 alliance in the semis (since neither one of them would have the ability to pick one of the top 8). With good selections due to the serpentine draft, the #8 alliance could go a long way in the elims.
