Champions Mock Group Draws

Following the format for group draws used at last year's Valorant Champions 2022 Istanbul, and using the team placements from Masters Tokyo, the group pools for draws will look something like this:
Pool 1 - Americas 1 (EG), EMEA 1 (FNC), Pacific 1 (PRX), China 1 (EDG)
Pool 2 - Americas 2 (NRG), EMEA 2 (Liquid), Pacific 2 (DRX), China 2 (BLG)
Pool 3 - Americas 3 (LOUD), EMEA 3 (FUT), Pacific 3 (T1), China 3 (FPX)
Pool 4 - Americas LCQ (KRU/LEV), EMEA LCQ (Giants), EMEA LCQ 2 (NAVI), Pacific LCQ (ZETA)

Assuming that no Americas, China, and Pacific teams will be in the same group, and EMEA will only have one group with two representatives (which is unavoidable), here are the first 5 random draws I made

Draw 1
Group A - PRX, BLG, FUT, (KRU/LEV)
Group B - EDG, NRG, T1, NAVI
Group C - EG, Liquid, FPX, ZETA
Group D - FNC, DRX, LOUD, Giants

Draw 2
Group A - FNC, DRX, LOUD, NAVI
Group B - PRX, Liquid, FPX, (KRU/LEV)
Group C - EG, BLG, T1, Giants
Group D - EDG, NRG, FUT, ZETA

Draw 3
Group A - FNC, BLG, T1, (KRU/LEV)
Group B - EG, Liquid, FPX, ZETA
Group C - PRX, NRG, FUT, NAVI
Group D - EDG, DRX, LOUD, Giants

Draw 4
Group A - PRX, BLG, LOUD, Giants
Group B - FNC, DRX, FPX, (KRU/LEV)
Group C - EG, Liquid, T1, NAVI
Group D - EDG, NRG, FUT, ZETA

Draw 5
Group A - PRX, BLG, LOUD, Giants
Group B - FNC, NRG, FPX, ZETA
Group C - EDG, Liquid, T1, (KRU/LEV)
Group D - EG, DRX, FUT, NAVI

Any NAVI first matchup will be a good game since their seed is so low

I dont think seeding is a thing for champions its a completely "random" draw

From Champs 2022 Article

"The tournament will consist of GSL style group play, followed by an eight team double elimination bracket. Teams were first sorted into four draw pools based on a combination of their respective final placements at Challenger and Masters events and the strength of their region.

Pool 1 - NA 1, EMEA 1, KR, APAC 1
Pool 2 - NA 2, EMEA 2, LATAM, JP
Pool 3 - NA LCQ, EMEA LCQ, BR, APAC 2
Pool 4 - S. America LCQ 1, S. America LCQ 2, APAC LCQ, East Asia LCQ"

Pools are seeded, pool 4 teams will always play a pool 1 team, same for 2/3
