I just wanna make a appreciation post for the way riot handle the franchising league format. especially for the regular season/playoffs
the top 6 for playoffs is actually great, at first I thought why wouldn't they just make the top 8 for playoffs instead of 6 just like what they do in most league on LoL Esports, but then I realize that top 6 is a much more better format, because the slot for playoffs is only 6 and teams would actually need to win a lot of games (in this case, 4 at the very least and 5 for a guaranteed spot) for them to qualify to playoffs, and there's actually a benefit for teams to be at the top of the standings (in this case the 1st place and the 2nd place of the regular season) because they would get a bye on the playoffs so teams would be fighting for it instead of teams just slacking off or 'saving strats' once they already claim a spot on the playoffs.
