Ranked is hell in any competitive game if you solo q for your matches. You need to make your match making rank high enough so you're not stuck with brain dead partners. This game has a hidden MMR for quick match that bleeds into competitive. The better you play, the better team mates you acquire. Got myself to the point where I couldn't lose in quick play, I then started competitive mode and steam rolled most teams.

Of course nothing beats getting in a que with people you know and that play good. Communication is key. The team that talks normally wins.

The unlocks never bothered me because its all cosmetic, and can be earned with the games credits if you want something bad enough.
