The simplest way to tackle the premade situation is to restrict the group size that can queue together down to 5man.
Splitting ques into pug or premade does not work, premades do not want to vs other premades and queues would become longer.
A game of WSG would look like and be a lot healthier if it were;
5+5 or 5+3+2 or 5+1+1+1+1+1
They’ve already announced a matchmaking update for phase 2, so it will definitely be something everyone hates.

You realize, of course, that we’ve read your posts.
I post. I don’t spam threads when there are already multiple up
“premade groups of five are too strong against soloQ teams!”
“premade groups of 4 are too strong against soloQ teams”
I’ve carried WSG games as a duo before. It’s a skill issue, not a numbers issue.
Incorrect.
“Pugs don’t have healers in any game! They’re all in the premades! Fix blizzard!”
We’ll see they could go with matching similar group sizes which is common in other games and that would be fine.
“I see you have selected WSG, would you like to spawn in as a ghost to afk and verbally abuse your team? or would you like to pretend to try before doing that?”
Half these people won’t pvp if they’re losing anyway, premade or not. You know my posts lazarak, you know how I feel about pvp, it shouldn’t be this hard for these people to pick up on what they’re missing.
Either way blizz is releasing a “fix” that everyone will probably hate.
Might as well just not do anything if you’re going to allow five man queues to go versus entirely random teams. All you have to do is get three or four priests, a pally and you win.
Just keep the queue that we have right now, and then introduce an exclusively solo queue. There, problem solved. And very simple.
Yea they can reduce grouping to 5, I’m still gonna push the E team to the gy and camp it with a warrior mage ele 2 priest. I’m def curious how they’re gonna handle it
He understands
If you’re able to do so as a coordinated 5man against other partial premades, than you will and deserve the win absolutely.
There is no 1 size fits all fix, this just mitigates the current situation without splitting ques
Find some friends.
I can beat 10s now as 3. The point is that people are ignoring the fact that there IS still a l2p element involved no matter what they do. No amount of fixing anything can fix poor play
Ya op wants to smash pugs with 5 stack with 3 healers lol. Why do you want to have your premade face pugs so bad. Dont like fair PVP matches? Too trash at the game you want unfair advantages vs your opponents? If they really release premade vs premade I’m going to enjoy the shock and awe these ppl get when the realize they are actually trash at the game and were carried by 3 priests every game.
Well done, so can plenty of players, ive carried pugs as FC to beat premades, its not the point.
Being on the premade team vs a pug is not at all fun
being on the pug team vs a premade is not typically fun
5 people are less likely to be able to lock down a GY than 10 /shrug
Its more about the likelyhood of a healthier game such as 5+5 vs 5+solos is a lot better than full prem vs full pug
If you were to do as you suggest, the situation would than be that the current queue would become the group queue likely 10v10 most of the time, which most players don’t actually want, and a solo queue? so either 1 man or 10 man, no inbetween?
