Separate Solo and Party queue/lobby?

If some of you are familiar with the old Dota 2 format of a separate solo and party queue, do you guys think this would be a good change or a bad change for the game?

    Great change for killers, but since it hurts SWF the devs will never do it since they make more money from Survivors.

    This has been suggested before in various forms. The problem is that SWF, according to the last stats I saw, are present in the vast majority of lobbies. Splitting the queue like this would cause queue times to drop for solo survivors not playing with SWF and spike queue times for both killers not playing against SWF and survivors playing SWF. In short, it'd effectively screw over the majority of players.

    Lobby times would be worse off than they already are. The best route imho, and hopefully the one being worked on, is to bring solo que strength and information up to swf strength and information while buffing killer based on that.
