5- 2nd: you're almost there, you didn't win, you'll be remembered as the one who couldn't win
4- 1st: you win, but then what? you're empty, you have nothing else after the joy is over, and the expectations on you are higher than ever for the next championship
3- 4th: literally got to playoffs for nothing, you maybe stopped a good team from making it with a fluke win? we will never know cause the 4th literally created this limbo
2- 5th: you did not make it, and that's fine! you can rest, have no obligation into playoffs, you can go and train for the next time, no one can blame you, you did not get far so zero regrets!
1- 3rd: you did great, you are the top of the top but you won't be remembered as the ones who couldn't win or the ones to be dethroned, you literally are one of the best in the world but without the perks of the 1st and 2nd
