Oof, sorry about this, folks. We’re working on it as fast as we can.
In the mean time, just so you know: I’ve noticed a lot of people commenting that they’re restarting their search after a few minutes. You definitely don’t want to do that—the way MM works, it gets more forgiving the longer it runs (until it times out), so if you restart it every few minutes you’re shooting yourself in the foot.
Thanks for your response, I got the Valiant rank just before the update, then matchmaking time went from 50s to 6min, but the couple games I had were only with high skill players, that was great, but then I got kicked out of 3 games just after joining the lobby and got the "leaver penalty". Since then, I just can't find a game even if I wait for the full 10 minutes.
I appreciate that you are trying to improve MM and the couple games I played were awesome but I can live with a wider skill range as long as I'm not playing with/against teams with 3 people with lvl 6-10 like it was before :-)
The “getting kicked out of lobbies” thing is a separate issue from matchmaking, but yup, it’s on our radar and under investigation.
Glad to hear you’re getting better matches, albeit after a longer wait. The next revision will attempt to get the “best of both worlds.” :)

Next revision is now live, attempting to better balance the MM rules so that we’re still trying to balance the teams as best we can, but we don’t want top-tier players left out in the cold. Give it a whirl, feedback welcome.
