none of these arguments about normals / vs ranked are very good or in the perspective of an actual high elo normal player.

THIS is why you want to make another acct and play ranked on it. Or normals I suppose, except it would be a shame to level up to 30 to escape high queue times just to be placed back into high elo normals and long queue times once again.

Can't practice or play if you can't get into a game. I just give up most of the time or I am in queue for so long I forget I am even in the queue.
