So I get that the 4 teams that have a bye round are the 4 that qualified for Champions, however how are the other 8 teams seeding determined? Liquipedia says they were put into the same pool but surely Riot Games didn't actually just draw names and slap them on the bracket and call it good, right? If someone knows how they determined 5-12th seed in the bracket let me know because I'm interested.

Oh ok thanks for sending the video, it's kind of surprising to me that they just randomly draw teams, I feel like its not even fair, I think the 5-12 teams should get like a 6 game swiss stage or something to determine their seeds.

That'd be more fair but it'd also take a LOT more time
