They claim that pre-made teams aren't stacked

the recent blue post from July 19, 2021 made at 2:01pm which indicates they’re acknowledging the complaints.

@Kaivax

The quick queues revealed that a noticeable number of players were doing BGs in organized raids. This makes sense; the time it takes to form a premade is time well-invested for those players. But for the large number of players who choose to queue alone, there’s essentially no hope of winning the BG. There are a couple of ways we can try addressing this, and in this next test, we’d like to try restricting groups to a maximum of 5 players in all Battlegrounds. This should have the added benefit of allowing players who are in groups to quest while waiting in queue for Battlegrounds.

If you’re talking about this, Kaivax is specifically discussing how organized RAIDS were queuing for BGs, allowing full premades to dominate a BG. This could only apply to WSG, AB, and EotS as the change was made to limit in-game queuing to parties only. This says nothing about voice comm coordinated queuing.

Also note that Kaivax isn’t against premades.

@Kaivax

We think it’s worth noting upfront that the most impactful part of this test should be the restriction on premades, and we’re going to be highly sensitive to how Battleground PvP feels for both players who usually queue up alone and players who would have otherwise formed raids before queueing.

This isn’t a statement of them wanting to bring down the hammer on premades, but rather they want to strike an appropriate balance. Premading is good, it just shouldn’t be overwhelming.

@Bodicca-westfall

I haven’t seen this. What does it say?

As per usual Cauchy, the Kaivax post says nothing close to what Cauchy tries to imply it states. The “complaints” in Kaivax’ post are by solo queue players jumping into AB, WSG, and/or EotS and facing full raid premades, not queue syncing via comms in AV.
