The issue with the format is how non-competitive it is. Riot basically decides who qualifies for Master's Shanghai based on the group seeding. How do you settle a tie between teams in different stage groups? It is not possible to know who the best, 2nd best, 3rd best, and 4th best team is in each region if we hand out points and qualifier spots before the individual leagues are finished playing. This is how every playoffs in the history of playoffs has worked: YOU FIRST COMPLETE THE REGULAR SEASON.
I am not asking for more games, just a logical format that rewards the best teams instead of this bs.
