Much more likely than you getting into a group BG while queueing solo is that the people you're up against are simply better and actually know how to play together without being premade.

This was my argument all the time back when there weren't separate queues, but people always insisted they were premades... so yes, I agree with this logic.

But my main point was; as someone who has done both solo and group queue over a long amount of time, I don't think the difference is very noticeable at all. Now, obviously this is all speculation on my part.... but occasionally when I get longer waits for a BG to pop, that's usually when I get matches where one team seems questioningly coordinated (sometimes it's even my team). So, I have a simple theory that from time to time the two queues have to dip into each other. That's it. That's all I was implying.

And if you missed my original point on this discussion, it was that the game was better off before solo and group queue-- and I'd even say I'd prefer it to go back to being that way.
