Yes there would be. But then again, the regionals typically get harder and more competitive as the weeks go by. You must have witnessed the dramatic increase in level of play between GSR and CT. Not saying this is always true, and I do agree that there are still logistics to be worked out, but either would be better than what is currently in place I believe. Basically I would argue that in general, teams who are "next in line" at a later regional are more likely to be of championship caliber and readiness than those that are "next in line" at an earlier one. But as I pointed out earlier, any system that is implemented will always result in the possibility of deserving teams being left out. This is an unfortunate and largely undeniable fact.
