because ranked mode requires a solid understanding of the game, level 8 you just installed

I'd probably be a bit annoyed if I queued for a rank team game only to get a noobie team mate.
Heck even a solo match, could suck to falsely inflate your MMR based on someones first match.

Level tells absolutely nothing in AoE 4 as you can just level up by playing campaigns or beating the easy AI over and over again.

Because as said you can just level up by playing Skirmishes vs the easy AI over and over again, can do daily tasks or masteries. It tells absolutely nothing about the skill of a player.

Even a level 30 can have no clue about the game if all they did was playing campaign missions and skirmish with wonder victory against the easiest AI over and over again.
The level in AoE 4 is basically the home city level in AoE 3 DE - just cosmetic.

A better indicator on player skill is the actual rank they have.

Because people don't agree with you?

I get the premise, but if someone who hasn't played a significant amount of other rts games plays their first ranked match, they'll probably suck. It doesn't matter how many games vs the easy ai they play to inflate their rank, they need to experience playing vs people to actually get good. I don't think there's much of a distinction with quick match, then they'll just get a quick match teammate complaining.

Even if they had to play 1v1 before joining team games, the issue you're having is teammates with a big skill difference to you. That's not so easily solvable of a problem. Basically you're just out of luck if you're hoping bad players will never be on your team, and if players actually had to be good to join ranked it might even end up excluding you.

If someone has a ton of prior rts experience, they'll be better than average in like less than 5 games anyways. You don't see these players, because they get placed above you.
