At the end of the day, a 'premade' is just a group of friends queuing up to play the game together, aka the core of what a MMO is about. There is nothing stopping you from forming a group with friends, or even just other Rival Wings players, and doing the same thing. There's even a large discord server with LFG functionality to help facilitate this process, and putting up a party finder is of course an option too.
The impact of premades in Frontline and Rival Wings isn’t the same, in my opinion, due to differences in party composition and player restrictions. The issue isn’t simply friends queuing together but rather groups optimizing their setup to gain a competitive edge.

In a 1v1 scenario like Rival Wings, premades have a much stronger influence compared to a 1v1v1 format like Frontline, where rewards remain the same (aside from XP). In Frontline, a leading team is far more likely to draw the aggression of the other two teams, which naturally helps maintain some level of balance.
