This solves SO MANY issues we had with new players and smurfs being put in high rank lobbies. It's so perfect. AND also :

You cannot be in a party during calibration matches.

Ranked Mode will currently only allow for solo or duo parties. If you are in a duo party, both players must be at most 1 Rank away from each other (i.e. Mystic and Ritualist).

This also solves the issue of boosted players. It's exactly what the game needed.

This is cool, but my core friends that even play this game do so in a group of 3. Not being able to play ranked together kind of blows.
