When all 4 teams are qualified, besides money and the trophy, does winning any of those games give you any advantages going into champs?

because if its like last years champs each group with be 1/2/3/4 from each region so (hypothetically) Seed 1 Gen.G Seed 2 LEV Seed 3 VIT Seed 4 BLG could be a group

might as well go all in to win the regional tourney cause you're not sure you'll win champs, atleast your season ends with a trophy and prize money😅 😁
