A-BAL is nice feature, but it can easily balance teams wrong because of new accounts. Some match making systems try and group new players to ascertain their skill level. Set a simple criteria that isn't hard to meet in 3 days. Players should have a minimum of 10 wins to play on A-BAL. This will help improve the accuracy of the players skill level instead of assuming 1000 which is the league average (if using a proper ELO implementation).
TL;DR: Set A-BAL requirement to 10 wins.

I play A-Bal on the legion A-Bal bot and the 15 game requirement doesn't seem to apply there.

10 wins, slightly different from what I'm asking

Re: A-BAL suggestion prerequisites
I agree 10 wins as a benchmark for a-bal. I have played a-bal a lot and get very very new players and TONS of leavers. This will improve the system imo.

Unless for some reason it wasn't updated before host bots were restarted earlier today.
