I looked at a team I suspected was abandoned in my league, and saw that they had no players but managed to win a team ranked game against another abandoned team that happened to be a lower elo.
Considering neither of them had any players, and it's harder to gauge than if strats or individual player skill made a game with players different, how much of a factor is elo?

In a match with two teams that have zero players, blue sides wins.
EDIT: This is wrong actually, I thought it was like this but it's not true. There does not seem to be an rhyme or reason to who wins.
