The matchmaking for ranked multiplayer works like this:

• Get the 100 "oldest" (creation time) available matches matching these conditions:
  • Opponent's league has to be between your league - 1 and your league + 1
  • If opponent's league is different than yours: league score delta (Definition: abs(your league score - opponents league score)) has to be lower than 200 points
• Filter out (remove) matches matching these conditions:
  • The opponent has already been played in the last 5 minutes
• If there are matches remaining after filtering:
  • Sort the remaining matches using these comparison rules:
    1. Prefer opponents in the closest league
    2. In case of equality: Prefer opponents using a different IP
    3. In case of equality: Prefer opponents never met or met the furthest in the past
       Opponents are considered equal, if they have been met in the last 10 minutes
    4. In case of equality: Prefer opponents with the lowest league score delta
       Opponents are considered equal, if the league score delta is ≤ 10
    5. In case of equality: Prefer oldest match (creation time)
  • Take the first match of the sorted list and join it
• If there are no matches remaining after filtering:
  • Pick a random map
  • Pick a random left/right side
  • Create a new match using these parameters
