Current Ranked is mostly Placement based. SBMM is skill-based.
Unskilled players in Ranked easily take Gold tiers because they play safe. Overall with how ranked system works everything below Diamond is not competitive (and Dashboarding seriously starts from Diamond therefore). More than that there is no way you can derank in Ranked due to loss protection. So if hit Platinum by sitting behind a rock most of the time doing nothing (like I did both seasons) - there is no way to go back; that's not a thing for SBMM. Which means you should not compare these 2 matchmaking systems.
However I do think they should make a separate SBMM Ranked.
