Team Deploy changes nothing. Yes it aids in Q-Syncing but it doesn't address the central problems FW has. FW needs player agency.

It gives an absolutely unbelievable advantage over people not doing it, so much so that it's relatively fair to say that a q-sync will beat absolutely anything short of another q-sync. I would disagree on q-syncing being cheating...it's really not anymore cheating than say Scamming or awoxing, and while it provides an advantage, it is perfectly allowed within the system, and is not a violation of the TOS, therefore is not cheating. Just as using Prototype Suits/Modules/Equipment, the Scrambler/Combat Rifles (Situation Dependent, and in some cases the ARR), or Capsuleer Provided EVE support isn't cheating, despite the massive advantages those provide.
Thaddeus summarised the core of my argument with one difference.
I frankly don't give a damn if the other side wants to play in an organised setting or not. If possible I 'll try to make it an organised setting because I see FW as something more than a public match. If people don't want to squad up in it that is their problem and not mine. They can solo grind in Public matches where their actions matter slightly less.
I love a competitive match as much as the next FWer but the goal of FW is to organise yourselves into militia groups to win and I want to win. Using organisation to achieve this goal is arguably the most valuable/respectable method of reaching that end destination.

I'd retort with the argument I posted earlier: If non-platoon players don't have any space to play FW, everyone suffers. Furthermore, consider this: Would you queue for a FW If you, someone who is an active Role Player, were on at an hour when you didn't have 15 other people online? If the answer to that question is no, the the system has discouraged someone who truly enjoys playing a particular game mode because the odds are stacked too greatly against them.
We're not going to energize FW by pushing out all but the hyper organized and PC level corps
I would actively queue for FW outside of traditional times for operations (aka weekends since I do rarely align even with the US evening players any more) if FW employed a system which allowed me to operate within FW space under my own agency and a system that actively reflected those efforts instead of systematically erasing them every 20 minutes.
Owning FW districts now means nothing if you cannot control which districts are held at a given time. Q-syncing is only a method that ensure a number of wins during a given session across the random spread of districts you are deploying to.

Allow platoons in FW but only allow them to fight other platoons and you've created de facto Corp battles (something the community has wanted since they got rid of them)
Let corp battles be corp battles.
Let FW be FW.

Or you could ask for corp matches and stop f******* up FW, qsyncs are bad enough for solo players
Sadly solo players contribute nothing to FW.
