They're both problems, but not the only ones. The way battle high works is another issue that compounds the DRK+DRG premade team combo. Add an AST into the premade and it makes it even more obnoxiously unbalanced. All of these things on their own have some balance issues, but they're more tolerable when separate. When you start stacking them all together they quickly get unreasonable.

Yes, a solo queued DRK and DRG can end up on the same team and can be effective if they make an effort to coordinate. They still however, will never be as effective as two players who regularly play together and whom are communicating over voice chat to coordinate during a match.

And I have also in other threads agreed that the DRK+DRG combo is too potent in general, premade or not. It's just so, so much more obnoxious when it's a premade doing it, especially when they quickly rank up to BH5 and can easily wipe out entire team.

I don't know what the correct answer is to address the problem. But it's abundantly clear that certain job combinations, especially when in a premade group together, cause severe balance issues in Front Lines.
