No, auto deployment should not put together strong(er) teams for you. If you didn't set any defense, you shouldn't be helped to a possible victory.

That's the whole point. If you can't be bothered to set defenses in 5 minutes, you deserve to lose the chance of winning.

It's a mechanism to make sure your opponent still has a chance to get some credits or complete quests while your passivety towards the game mode is repaid by stripping your chance of forming teams with synergy. You still get rewards, so I see no problem.

As others have mentioned, the auto-populate feature is not intended to benefit the player who forgot to set their squads. The intent is to make it so that you can't negatively impact your opponents game experience by setting no defense (purposefully or otherwise).

Yea exactly, so why it does not deploy at all free spots when oponent place only 1 team? This is more for dev question, but tell me single reason why would person deploy only part of defense other than to screw his oponent so he cant get all the credits/quests from defeating it. I cant see any other reason by myself.

So someone who knows or suspect he cant win, can at least "hurt" opponent by removing his ability to get credits/quests from fights. This is why i think it should auto deploy all teams no matter when someone set 0 or 1 teams.

Originally it didn't do anything, people would set no D and that's how it was. The auto deploy was a fix, and my guess is it's much easier to implement for no D versus a partial D.
