About the 3v3 ranked teams time-schedule... (Riot, give us an answer please)

I can understand you want to restrict 5's rankeds in Summoner's Rift, because it could be somewhat problematic. It is understandable. And 5v5 players don't need to get angry about this, because they have the dynamic queue that allows them to play rankeds throughout the entire day, either alone or with friends. So far, so good.

The problem is you have decided to apply the change to Twisted Treeline also, which is something I can't understand. 3v3 map is a map that, despite being less played than 5v5, has a solid base of players. Our only way to play 3v3 competitively is 3v3 ranked teams. Not many people can play 3v3 rankeds because it is difficult to find two reliable teammates who are consistently online when you are too. But if you manage to team up, queue times are acceptable, unless you play on Master-Challenger tier.

What do you get by restricting 3v3 ranked games? It's even more difficult to play this map competitively. Because I don't know if you know it (I guess you know, it's your game after all), but that is the only way we can play competitively 3v3. We do not have dynamic queue, as the 5v5 map has. We only have normal blind pick, and 3v3 ranked teams draft pick. That's all. We don't even have normal draft pick, for gods sake. Something kind of sad, honestly.

What I'm asking for? Something simple. Just let 3v3 be, and don't screw our already kinda small playerbase. I'm not asking you to bring dynamic queue in 3v3, because I know I can't ask the impossible (you don't want 3v3 to become a popular map, we already know that). I only want you to rollback this absurd restriction on a map that did not need these change that may be logical in 5v5, but it's completely absurd and detrimental to our gaming experience in 3v3.

I would like some kind of response from a rioter, really. I know the 3v3 playerbase is not as big as 5v5's, but I think we deserve a little attention and respect as well. This change has screwed a lot of people.

PD: sorry for the possible mistakes, english isn't my native language.

I think it's because of this.
