I think in principle this is an interesting step, but in practice it needs a little more. There are people queuing in as light parties on Aether who appear to do so to protect themselves against vote kicks, as they spend the entire match telling "jokes" and avoiding combat.

If you could somehow arrange matches such that each team had a premade trying to win, and featuring a shot-caller (which I think is your intent), my instinct is it would improve matches.
