Whatever is in store for match making should allow premades to queue with other premades. Those who are solo queing should be able to join with other randoms so they're not getting regularly stomped by clans using voice. It's just bad for everyone who's new to the game/not in clan/doesn't have friends playing the game. Once the whole premade vs pug thing becomes established, it just breeds game elitism and contempt for new players.

For some reason i was in a game with premades and against premades 6 times in a row.

Those were some epic games,StreakCats and GaussKitties are the number one threat.

I ran into a premade of 6 light mechs today. I must say, it was probably the most exciting fight i've had thus far. We won- And not to toot my own horn, but I got half the kills on our team ^^ Jenner + 300XL + 6 Small lasers = Death from the shadows :(
