Like assign third pick points based on their ranking/how far they go into the elimination rounds.

Say the #8 alliance wins the event, their second pick was actually the 9th pick so their 2nd pick would get more points than the 2nd pick (16th overall) for the #1 alliance if they win.

Besides that, the current point system is pretty solid. Although I think the point gap between winners, finalists, and semi-finalists are pretty large. If FiM based the semi and finalist's points more on if they went to 3 matches vs 2, the points would be even more realistic.
