    So you meant to use a tank/melee to attack the premade's alliance, whilst the premade enter for the kill? Sadly, that too doesn't work from my own experience:

    The DRK approaches, the ally tank/melee will jump into the premades alliance. Scattering is less likely - as I said, they're now aware they have a premade and become a little more confident than they would have been in a random team, where scatter may be a likely response. The most likely outcome is they will attack the incoming tank/melee. Depending on the tank/melee used, for example WAR, large groups of the enemy team may be temporarily stunned as part of the attack. In which case, yes, you will likely succeed in distracting the randoms of the premades alliance. However, it remains the case that whilst you are doing all of this, your team are dying right behind you to the premade. While you were jumping into their alliance, their DRK was jumping into yours. Their RPR teleporting in with them, and both DRGs already in the process of their LB cast and are within your team. Now you're in the middle of the enemy team with no aid.

There should be time as the RPR would want to wait for the Guards to come out so they can break people out of them.
    Purify, Sprint doesn't work. No, the RPR won't need to wait for the Guards to appear - they jump in and use the LB. Anyone who used Guard will have it removed. Anyone who didn't use it wouldn't be able to apply it now anyway - they're sent into Hysteria. They can't use skills, they can't run with purpose, they can't do anything. So the RPR has no need to wait for people to use Guard. When I say these attacks are simultaneous, I'm not overexaggerating.
