Why not a 3v3 Soloq with a single round?

Blizzard, the first step has been taken: changes on the MMR system (it’s incredible how much time it took you for such a simple change requested by everyone since day one) but let’s gloss over it.
I don’t want to talk about senseless damage and incompetence in class balancing because that takes a backseat.
It’s amazing how we are all paying for a queue simulator and I don’t just mean RSS but also Skirmish, BGs and all sorts of PVP experiences.
As a DPS it is impossible to play now, the average time to play a game of any kind is 15 minutes.
I tried playing Healer but I don’t know how someone’s sanity can remain stable after playing a few games (for me the only solution to having fun with a Healer is to do more damage and only partial support, see discipline priest).
I don’t understand how an interesting idea like RSS is so poorly designed.
Remove RSS and put a real 3v3 Solo Q with a single round (on private servers the idea was a success).
The current idea is old and let’s be honest, most of us don’t want to socialize, we want to sit down and play our games (you could even put the 2v2 Solo Qs in as far as I’m concerned).
I’m writing this because the state of PvP is truly pitiful and I’ve never seen such low participation as this season.

The problem according to TS

A solution

Now let me ask few questions about this absolute masterpiece.

  1. How is a logical chain built from
    We wait too long → let’s play 3 minutes instead of 15 when queue pops up?

  2. How is it a fair experience if you get put into a team with 0-6 type of guy? People can complain about RSS balance for how long they want, but if you get smashed by some player, you get to play with them afterwards and get a chance of winning.
    So imagine playing few games in a row with lower skilled players against 3.5k AWC players. Mmmmmm, fantastic design idea, love it.

i mean put someone into mm,bm,dh,rsham,fw lobby as mage or something and they just leave after 1-2 losses anyway after noticing theres no point lose their nerves over it too, so i dont see how you going to get your 6 rounds out of it. some guy waited 40mins to lose 1-2 rounds with the guy who rages out the fiesta instead of having design for soloq that makes sense and have been working on other servers that run wow. i agree with the op, priva servers soloqs work alot better than shuffle.

you cant force people to do anything they dont want to do. you cant have system based on assumption that everyone stay for 6 rounds. not only 1 round normal format being equally fair for both heal and dps its the only design that prevents griefing after ppl get tilt or leaving and gives you the fairest soloq you can get.

if you seriously think the current design for this mode is success you are complete out of touch whats going on with the game.
