I think the most important thing is to win as many matches as you can and put out a good showing. It is better to win a match 30-20 than to try to build your QP's up and accidentally lose 40-41. Any team that can consistently win matches and do well will get picked for the finals, and if you're always winning, your rank won't be that bad either. Teams like 469 and 71, while not seeded, were amazing finals machines. Their QP's were not amazing, but they were good, solid, winning machines and got picked because of that. In short, focus on doing well in every match, show other teams what you can do, and don't obsess over QP's.
