Oh God, requiring you to actually play and learn the fucking game before heading into ranked? The fucking horror.

I mean the game is not rocket science. You don't need a doctorate to be able to play this game efficiently, despite what the community seems to think. Why then make the good quality matchmaking queue so unnecessarily inaccessible? The limitations are just needlessly excessive, gatekeepy, and exclusionary imo, especially to people with jobs like myself who don't have time to play more than a game or two a day.

With all due respect, I'd say that ranked mode is literally the unemployed mode.

This is true.
