Strongest Regionals/District 2016?

GTR East:
Champs Elim Teams: 6/52
Einstein Teams: 4/52

Waterloo:
Champs Elim Teams: 8/32
Einstein Teams: 3/32

I'm guessing no other regional is going to match the 25% number that Waterloo has, but that's probably artificially inflated by the size (or lack thereof) of the event. That being said, that 25% number also means you're not going to run into many matches without a high level team. So the event becomes that much more webcast/spectator friendly.

Hartford District -
Champs Elims 10/38 (26%)
Einstein - 0/38
