I switch sides if it seems like I'm on a stomp team and barely even look at the number of players after that. What matters then is whether the players left towards the end of a round is close enough, if they swing too far in favor of the team I just joined then all I can do is accept that I made a mistake and wait for this already unbalanced match to end.
Just letting it go from the start isn't good enough though. It kills my desire to play when I get put onto the losing side of a complete stomp for 3 maps in a row and I imagine it's the same for others. I don't mind losing the map, I don't even mind losing it 0-10 so long as those rounds felt like we had a chance. Losing the map when the enemy barely loses one or two players each round is the problem and if we can't try to balance the teams then we might as well vote to map skip/forced shuffle as a surrender instead.
