> Solos leave because a pug should never be put into a premade game.

> Population is in shambles. Devs decide to remove premades as it caused the pug exodus. Premades cry "but me friends!" and "you know what MMO means???"

> Most former premade players get stomped when by themselves. Premades begin synch queing (not possible in all games).

> Devs remove synch queing. Premades quit because can't handle pick up games. (can't be carried by discord etc.)

> No more population.

> Devs add pve rewards. More players come back for rewards. Yay pugs

> Now GW2 made the mistake that all make in the beginning by not separating pugs and premades. We'll forgive them for that. But they do something different. The reintroduce duos. Now all those pugs who started playing later are leaving. But hey you get "quality" matches. Good for you.

> In all honesty they should make a solo que and a premade 2, 3, or 5 man que for ranked. Us pugs will be happy and you premades can sit in 20 minute queues waiting to play against other premades. The good premades that can handle group content will thrive and the majority who just wanted an edge over pugs can split.It'll be a win/win for quality matches for everyone. YAY!

A very generalized, but oddly correct representation of the PvP history in GW2.

Give this man/lady a cookie.

But then it will only be 1 mode to play and then no one can't deny the lack of modes
