Re: Rule 8.4.1
I agree with Beth. While this may make for more interesting finals, the first and second placed teams finished there for a reason. Sure some of the Top 8 may have finished on the laurels of others, being a three team game dynamic, you could easily compile a perfect record without doing that much on your own or end up with X wins and 1 loss. With the new system, you are rewarded even more for it by being a low picker because you have the opportunity to pick high in the second round; where is the motivation for being first seed?
that being said, if i find myself in a situation where I am in 7th or 8th place and I am not picked by any higher seeds, I will be glad that rule exists. Nevertheless, I think it takes away from the game. |
