    • I've been in plenty of unfair games as a solo queue player, with no premades on either team. Good solo players will still exist and they will destroy players who aren't geared or don't know how to pvp or are still learning. If a solo queue only happened next thing you'd see is ppl like yourself complaining that one side got a healer and the other didn't so ban heals or tanks from solo queue so nobody has an unfair advantage 😂😂 Smaller grouped premades are actually good for the game because they promote the way an mmo should be played as Vega has mentioned plenty of times. Players form an emotional attachement to games beacause of the social sspect and they are more likely to be regular players if they engage in the mmo side as opposed to a solo person who is more rpg driven. Premades also promote good pvp in general. Someone was complaining last night that a healer was queued with a tank, imagine having disdain for support classes. That's your average solo queue player talking lol. 
    • You are making an uninformed statement. You used to play in big premades who wanted to crush pugs and they do exist, nobody is disputing that. That'sthe exact reason almost every player in here says the groups should be reduced. Why ignore all of the smaller premades who are only queueing with a friend or two? Because it doesn't suit your narrative? 
    • I didn't say all premades want to stomp pugs, I said most people in premades are there for easy games (to stomp pugs) and that any premade has an innate advantagea over a pug. everyone else is trying to add in "what ifs" and "what abouts" My stance is clear, due to the advantages of a premade, if we want fair games premades and solo players need to have separate queues.  
    • Hard to discuss something like this with someone who clearly has a closed mind. You haven't even read through the posts in this thread because I stated earlier I was in a 8 man premade for the exact reason of taking on another 8 man premade in the queue. We sent them a challenge only to be declined lol. So we had to sit in queue trying to snipe them while the broken matchmaker didnt even put the two groups together 😂😂. The only reason we got such a big group together is because we were all in smaller groups continually having to face a big 8 man completely outnumbered. So in one aspect you are right there are people out there who don't want competition. The ones who do, don't form a massive op premade to fight pugs we play with a couple friends hoping to see other premades like minded and have some good battles.  Issue you have right now is the one group of people forming an 8 man, with the intention to dodge any and all smoke. That leads to players like me who don't want to queue an 8 man (because it really isn't any fun unless its a guild challenge) being forced to do so. Then matchmaker is so completely broken it pits the two 8 man premades against pugs in two completely different warzones. This happened I'd say about 80% of the time or more the past few days.  So ur way off base in the assumption that all premades just want to stomp pugs first off. Second splitting the queues will only exasperate the population problem so no there really is no reason for a completely seperate queue. Third, the majority of premades are relatively small.  The solution is breaking up the 8 man's, meaning those players forming two seperate groups. Then fixing the matchmaker and ensuring those groups face eachother.  Edit: @Luciferior can attest to this. My group got him in a novare coast yesterday (only knew it was u cuz the guild tag lol), im sorry bro we were honestly only in such a big group to snipe a 6 man who was queing and crushing pugs. We got them one time in like 5 matches queued...and we were wating for them to exit a wz in order to queue up at the same time in the hopes of having a big match. Matchmaker is ur enemy not premades.
