A few months after this update came out, there has been dissatisfaction in the growing quabbleball community, so I would like to summarize it all below:
Quabbleball is a team-based sport, which means that teamwork is required to do well in the game, but currently, it's impossible unless you get some godlike luck that puts you and your friends on the same team. But if you're all alone in a team of people you don't know, it's extremely hard to communicate and do well, especially if all your friends are stacked up on the other team.
Another problem is that there are many players that don't know how to play the game and don't read the directions that are posted at the start of the game. When they join, they drag their own team down and are a nuisance to their own team. Some keep hitting their own teammates, while others goalblock and rage quit. The reason the option to choose teams was to ensure a 'fair chance of winning', but with more people who don't know how to play on your team, randomized teams are more counter-effective than anything.
If choosable teams are brought back, players can host their own quabbleball games with custom teams and play with their friends. If they want, they can still have randomized games.
TLDR Randomized teams made the game even more unbalanced so bring choosable teams back
