    You don't like it when two pre-made teams in the same guild target your pug team and ignore each other then spam "lol scrub"? Man, you don't understand PvP at all! Jeez, this guy...He's a comedian, but not funny! Not funny at all!

    Am I right guys? Guys...? Guys!?

    Mechwarrior Online had the same problem. Group of 4 in voice comms vs pug in typed chat. They claim their matchmaker would try to match group vs group.

    Blizzard do not match pre-made with pugs. But poeple found a work around with the use of an add-on. Players are the bane of players vs players.

    Can be easily patched.

    The group finder as a whole is broke as hell, they wont add anything because they have no idea how to even fix anything!

    This could lead to win-trading abuse if there are limited teams in the group finder.

    win trade in a BG? what would that benefit either side? tiny bit of ap?

    Remember when they told us MMR would lead to more premades facing premades?

    I miss those naive, trusting days...

    Well the extreme high mmr bgs actually kind of work. But only if there are 3 premades with high mmr. Else its alway 2 premade and one unlucky duo.

    Another big problem is the new que system, with limited number of people in the que the matchmaking seemed to get unfair.

    I've said things like this right when BGs came out. I've seen enough of PvP arenas before ESO to know that premade vs pug group can end only in one way. I used to play in premades years ago in Aion. Anyone that is against such restrictions (premades only vs premades) is not a true PvPer, he just seeks for an easy prey. MMR ranks are ok, but it won't help vs premades. This is one of the reasons I've stopped to play BGs, I don't have time to look for other players ready to jump BG when I do.
    I'm done with this game because of ZOS pushing us into Vengeance, because they don't know how to fix Cyrodiil.

    im not familiar with BG and PvP as well, but having read all sorts of stories about how easy-pz life of low rank player in BG and decided to go random run. That was a ball or whatever arena....

    So right at the start i (as highest CP player) was insta focused by Meteor and burst damage shred through 30k hp and 12k shield in a few seconds. After that my team was also melted.

    That was an extremely awful BG experience.

    Yes, this is an issue.

    Naturally, teamwork within a pug is generally less, and nominally player skill is likely to be higher in a pre-made group anyway (not always, just generally speaking).

    If one queues up and you get put into a BG with 1 or more premade teams, it is highly likely even moderate teamwork from them will result in a large advantage, particularly in objective based BG.

    Very often, one can tell within the first minute or two if your pug team has any chance whatsoever of winning, or even finishing 2nd.

    I imagine the splitting of the player base in the queues is the main reason there is no division between.
