    So you solo queue for battlegrounds and whoever gets the most wins win? Assuming no ones going to throw on purpose?

    Solo shuffle is arena, not battlegrounds.

    And their would be no reason to throw on purpose, they are judged individually on each round. The more round (group composition is shuffled each round, hence the solo shuffle name) the player himself wins the better he is ranked.
