Will Dominion receive a Ranked queue in Season 5?

Serious question. I spent the later parts of Season 3 hyping myself for Ranked Dominion (the map specific changes gave me joy). Unfortunately, for me, that didn't happen.

I brushed it off. After all, these things take time. TT's allowed to get away with Ranked because it's team only, and it's not too difficult to get 2 fellow Summoners onboard (if you actually try).

I've spent the time since getting hyped for a Dominion Ranked queue in Season 5. However, after seeing the Crystal Scar regarded as "an extra map," and compared to "featured game modes," my balloon's been deflated a bit.

So, rather than spending several months hyping myself up for something that may not happen, I figured it'd be a better idea to just ask:

Will Dominion receive a Ranked queue in Season 5, or is Dominion going to only exist as a fun side project?

TBH I really don't think riot is going to do more with dominion largely. The game mode itself is not very popular (sometimes takes 10 mins just to get into one game). By adding a ranked dominion, Queues would be longer, and, tbh, it will be VERY hard to find people who are willing to play dominion.

Riot promised ranked Dominion when it was released but have been silent ever since. I really hope they give it to us because it would hugely increase traffic to the game mode. Most people play ranked SR because they love climbing the ranks, not because SR is better than other maps. Dominion I think would be very popular with a ranked queue.
