Stop letting duos queue up for ranked

I can't even believe the amount of crossplay duos that queue up for ranked. The issue is that they are frequently not very good, or at least one of them is ok (at the rank) and the other isn't. Because the game plays on the highest rank, you are essentially dragging a lower skill player and griefing the random third's game. They are also usually comming in private to each other, excluding the third - and they are often belligerent to the third when any communication is attempted because they outnumber them. 

The RP loss I've incurred duo to bad duos is incalculable. INCALCUABLE.  

No legitimate reason to allow a duo to queue up for a ranked game. They can play duos. Three stacks or all randoms. In fact - even better would be separate modes for randoms only.

    Personally I believe this would do more harm than good, it would increase queue times over the entire board. (Would especially hit harder on lower populated ranks/regions)

    Whilst duo's might not communicate due to them already being grouped in Discord, solo players might not communicate because they solo queue so they can just play on their own.

    There is no real way of knowing whether or not this will actually resolve the issue that's held in mind, especially since it operates under the assumption that duo's use less communication.

    Next to that there technically already is a solution to this, you could always go into a premade squad that guarantees communication.

    It would function much better since only one side has to compromise to get guaranteed results compared to something where multiple players have to compromise of which the results aren't even guaranteed.
