The premades who are the problem are people in discord calls whose primary goal is to stomp solo players. It's totally disingenuous to pretend players can achieve the same just by queuing into FL with a buddy.

Besides, "just make your own premade" doesn't stop premades from being a problem. It just makes it so other players suffer instead of you. Some modes are absolutely wretched with premade supremacy atm. If you make it practically mandatory to queue to FL outside of an organized premade, the mode will just die a slow death. The most effective solution is to target the obvious problem.
