Different Masters 2 format

Inspired by JoshRT on X: https://x.com/JoshRTz/status/1934020336724644081

4 groups of a 1st seed, 2nd seed, and 3rd seed play a round robin and the top two teams advance to playoffs.

#1 in the groups can do the playoff draw.

Thoughts?

I think 3 team groups are pretty bad coz it is actually advantageous to lose your first game.

What I reckon would be better is have a Swiss stage as usual but let the 1st seeds start as 1-0 and have the 2nd seeds play the 3rd seeds in Round 1

3 team groups 😭🙏💔🥀

dont like that, teams can go 1-1 against each other and not qual over tiebreaks lol
bad way to determine who the best of the top 2 teams would be

just go all team swiss bo1 (if riot doesnt want extend the event played), and first seed advantage like +1 point and choosing first opponent
