First, of course, fix ranked.
Next, I fully understand that one ranked playlist gives you evenly weighted data for all players for all game types that is absolutely needed to fine tune the rankled system. However, I assume eventually we get more playlists.
There is so much opportunity here to create a GREAT ranked experience.
Team games such as strongholds and oddball are fun when played with 3 friends but exhausting when played with 3 strangers. No explanation needed, just go play a game right now and you’ll see. Strongholds with strangers is a marathon. You should change the win condition to distance travelled. 
It is very difficult to coordinate strangers to hold A, C on Recharge and force enemy spawns on B.
On the other hand, King of the Hill is fun with strangers because a coordinated effort can still swing momentum but the strategy isn’t as complicated as strongholds and it doesn’t take a skilled task force to surgically remove to oddball from Yellow Room or PD.
We all like to play ranked because we get a to see our progress. The only problem is that it is so limited in choices while social is full of them.
Anyone have any suggestions on fun competitive games times that could work in ranked? I think oddball, strongholds and 5-flag are just don’t hit the mark.
