Secondly, your rank now depends not on your player skill, but on randomness, because you are more likely to have what I described above.

    Seriously? What I'm seeing now is much more interesting casual matches. Ranked has become meaningless, not a challenge. Add to all this that people there are leveling characters, and the essence of ranked will crumble to dust. To be honest, after a few days of playing this new ranked system, I have nothing but fatigue and nausea. It's like the same recurring nightmare. If this was the goal of the developers, then it has been achieved."Nice job!"
    I agree on theory with similar experiences, but there is still a pretty deep gap between diamond and below. And equally between diamond/low crystal and the top 10. That doesn't even begin to compare.

    When playing in casual, 80% of the time it feels like seal clubbing, the rest being due to extremely imbalanced teams in skill (usually first timers all in one team, or just veterans stacked in one).

    Yes, there is such a thing. But you do not lose anything, and the battle, if you lose it, does not reduce your rank. And it's still a great chance to learn. What is happening in the ranked game now is not only huge gaps between groups, but also complete randomness. Many come there without experience, just to see what it is, and this leads to losses, even if you have a couple more experienced people on the team. I don’t know what can be done about it, but something needs to be done, because at the moment the system does not attract, but rather repels and discourages any desire to participate in this.
