BGs Defender Select Suggestion

I've seen a lot of threads lately about this and it is pretty weird. I don't know what the actual chances are of this happening but this season so far, every ten matches, I only pick defender first in two of them which has been giving me advantages on nearly every match and I don't think that's fair regardless of whether it's just bad luck or something is actually wrong with the game and it's screwing some people over.

So, I was thinking what if instead of having one player pick their defender first, both players pick at the same time. The way this would work is by hiding the champ portraits and revealing them only after both players have selected their defenders or the timer runs out and one gets picked randomly for them. Picking attackers would have to stay the same of course otherwise you wouldn't be able to strategize if the player is throwing the round, or risking it and not having counters later etc.
I tried thinking about ways this could be exploitable but I couldn't think of any so I figured I'd post a discussion and see if anyone can find a flaw with it cause I could be wrong. I definitely think something needs to change though cause picking defender first is too big of a disadvantage.

    I was hoping there would be an official comment on this, since the weekend was over. People have spent thousands of elder marks this season and the lack of any acknowledgement of this issue is extremely disappointing.
