They need to make it say:

1. Teams don't count toward the total in a BG unless they are rated at MINIMUM 1500.
2. Teams who satisfy 1 must meet a minimum quota of total games played over the season. This prevents people who want Drakes from spam creating 2v2s to flood the total teams in a BG. Think about how easy it's going to be for people to make their level 70 ALTs and buddies join arena teams.

It doesn't take tons of talent to break 2k as a Warrior/Paladin team for example. But say 2200? There's a huge, huge difference between 2k and 2200.
Speaking as a reroll who started the season about 8 weeks in, the difference from 2000 and 2200 is really dependant on what time you queue, and which class makeups you face in 2's and 3's. My shadow priest/warlock 2's easily shot up to 2100 the first week we played, when we both had zero arena/hwl gear, then fought rogue/priest teams down to 1900. We then queued the next week and got a lot of paladin/warrior teams and got back up to 2200 quite easily. It really depends on who is queueing at that particular time.
