Allow premade vs premade in AV

If you queue as premade though you will only be able to play where there is also an opponent premade queued. AV can be an amazing place for guild vs guild showdowns, with unique ways to use the battleground's strategy. And hour long battles can happen before victory on one side is achieved. I thought of doing that since server released, especially with the pre-nerf AV mode. I truly believe noone is going to be disturbed by this, this is a very awesome thing to implement. Why not anyway?

because they'd have to enable the group queue API for AVs again
or give everyone a custom command to challenge an other group (shitty solution as it might be abusable)

so no, never

Any form of grouped queue, with 2 or more, will queue you to the premade vs premade AV. And not sure how else this may be abused tbh, like, its already bannable to use any sort of other programs, the Admins know better though..

Robotron, opinions with no explanation are useless.

if even 2 players queuing get matched in a prem vs prem queue only (which is the only way to ensure AVs are still the way they currently are) it'd mislead players and run them into infinite queue times

all in all a very custom feature that imo is not worth looking into.
If you are looking for a fair guild vs guild fight you should not chose the most imbalanced battleground available but instead meet up somewhere in the open world (Hyjal as example, you even get ressed on the spot so graveyards are always equally far away)
