It'd be OK if people still used the Wolves Den(or even liked it in the first place). It doesn't sound appealing for Frontlines. Like other people have said, you can't carry that many people. To top that off, there's a shocking amount of games where light farmers will make you lose on purpose. I'm sure this will stop at some point... of course. Either way it's a problem right now.
I'm not convinced ELO will work in a setting like FFXIV at all, personally. MOBAs are pretty much designed to allow an exceptional (or just lucky?) player carry to a fair extent... it's even a defined role in that genre...

FFXIV depends a lot more on each teammember doing their part.
