✅ put iceland finalists in same group
✅ put all of south america in the same group (+optic so all of america tbh)

typical riot rigged groups to make sure the bigger regions all make playoffs, like DRX probably deserve to make playoffs but i swear riot tries to give them the easiest path all the time
for seeding purposes zeta in reykjavik wasnt really a threat and they had a really bad international record but def improved afterwards
also both fnatic and c9 were also both very low ranked going into champs (derke not top20) and DRX was supposed to top that group easily
I did forget about berlin though, for seeding purposes that was expected to be a tough group before SMB's EMEA honeymoon period wore off
