Personally I can see an EASY way to fix the issue...

Two QED teams, ones plat loaded. Why not just mix the teams up a bit so they have a better spread of BSGP representation, bringing them more in line with the competition and hence allowing both participation in this tier?

I was honestly surprised they stacked one team rather than giving both a bit more equality.

I was under the impression this was BSGP, and the next tier was PD... with P being a bit of a skill bleed-over between the leagues (bridging the gap rather than stating there was one) between the skill levels? In which case I personally don't see an issue with Plats being in teams but I think they have to be more evenly loaded across the leagues.

However, that being said, BSG would be slightly more appropriate for the overall skill levels, with the next tier being PD as they're a lot more tight than Bronze->Plat (too wide a player skill variance perhaps?).
(By this I mean it'd be like putting Plats against GMs... just not quite doable)

My 2c!
