It's also not a ranked mode or a savage tier. Yall are arguing that premades ruin the game for people playing for fun, while also not being good enough to contribute to a win? Or throwing for their own stats?
Let's get this straight. "Premades" are not a single hive mind. They are different groups of different people, with different skill levels, goals, ideas, and mindsets. Lumping them all in under the guise of them being elitist padders who want to ruin the fun of solo queue players -- that's the kind of take that makes the forums look crazy.
Nobody is violating the spirit of the Multiplayer Online RPG by playing a casual PvP mode with their friends.
