Queuing System and Poisons - Solo Q No Cp Bgs gameplay

Soul Shriven
Battlegrounds
Queue system
Having played tons of battlegrounds both with and without CP i understand people wanting both as an option. With the current playerbase i don't that will be an option yielding good results though. I have fun with or without CP, the main issues i have with battlegrounds is when i either meet full premades while solo queueing or meet only randoms when i'm grouping with friends. Both of these usually ends up being a complete stomp with little fun for anyone.
Poisons
Another issue i have mainly related to no cp bgs are poisons. They are simply put too stronk (cost increase + root) when ressources are as scarce as they are in no cp. Having to roll dodge out of a root as well as having cost increase after just shreks your ressources in no time with no real counter (standing still not casting skills will most likely get you killed as well).
Suggested soulutions
Posions have a rather easy fix for this...simply disable poisons in no cp battlegrounds:)
As for the Queueing issue i think zenimax most successful change would be to open up bgs for any who own the game(not just morrowind) to get a large enough player base to be able to split up solo queuers and groups. Should the playerbase that play bgs grow enough they could also add no cp/cp options...if not just swapping between cp and no cp for each major update could be an option:)
Here is a video of a game were i solo Queued and ended up with just other solo queuers(i think). Was really fun and got real intense and close in the end^^
