I have asked multiple devs, and been ignored everytime I mention ranked.
I have sent compliments about the game before, and gotten replies within the day.
They have no intention of letting players know what they are working on.
I doubt we will get ranked in 2019.
Ranked 1v1 is currently first on our list as far as code/technical aspects go, and good progress has been made on it already, so it won't be too long. But we don't have any more specific time estimates right now.
