I'd like to remark, that if the quoted article is in no way appliable to "normal" games, then Riot could help us by stating so with information on how the players are picked in this case, but if it is relatable to it, then it should be looked into because it is a very frustrating problem for 5 players per such game. People who play ranked play it because the competitive aspect brings them fun. They want balanced games because the core notion of playing ranked is proving the system wrong: People play normals because they enjoy playing the game itself.
