ZOS please check if solo BG are really randomly assembled teams

Some teams play so extremely coordinated that I really have heavy doubts that these were really put randomly together. ZOS, pls check if there is no abuse possible somehow that allows coordinated groups to stay together. Some coordinated groups might actually really prefer to queue for solo BG if they manage to stay together than in a grouped BG as the chances to play against an uncoordinated group is higher and hence the win more probable for such groups.

As a work around I suggest a two-step approach for SOLO BG groups:
1. Make groups like now. Fill up 2 x 8-member groups or 2 x 4-member groups.
2. Randomly swap a few players between team 1 and team 2 without possibility to prevent this.

    Solo 4v4 , for team balance , it only matter of luck

    Even nothing to do with MMR, because of small population querying in specific time frame, just get 8 people to start the game

    Sometime get unstoppable winning in a line, and some time always get 20k hp PVEer teammate, even I’m already in high MMR for certain week, try to find some fun as loser side in lopsided match is first thing need to adapt for this Solo 4v4

    Random swap team or swap base on balance is good idea, but it requires more intelligence algorithms, it look not a easy task to implemented , it luxurious to ask more, as for now we even don’t get feature that only start BG after all player confirm ready check,
