Can we add a ranked Teambuilder?

I don't see why not, it's perfect for ranked and can be so much easier instead of pick order. Teambuilder's population is pretty big and adding a ranked type would make it even better.

Teambuilder already has some longish wait times when it comes to finding the right members for your team, but if it also had to do MMR and rank checks it would take ages to get a game going.

teambuilder should be a niche queue for people looking to practice a specific champion/role to get better at it. The Draft format of ranked is what defines competitive play (what ranked is): it involves more strategy (instead of blindly being countered) and allows a team to ban champions they have problems with. It also allows a team to ban problem champions that the latest patch has made way OP. Finally, the system rewards players who know multiple roles well (as they can fill and make the team comfortable in their roles). Since at the highest level of an individual role requires knowing how other roles will act, This is a desirable mechanism of ranked to help the diverse player rise more quickly.

I want to play more than just support to get fast Games. Draft gives everyone an equal chance.

Totally agree. Teambuilder is more fun and there is still skill in setting up winning comps. Would be very nice option. Ranked play is not fun.
