They could make it "if majority of team loses, it's out". So if 4 vs 4, 3 of X lose, even if the remaining 1 is badass enough to level a city, their team loses automatically. Less strife, more teamwork, and more individual effort as a result, since if they leave all the work to 1 person the other team can just ignore him/her and take out the lazy others.
