I don't agree with the "1 more map = double because player base is splitted into two". No, the real reason of queue time increase is just because there are less players on a 5vs5 queue because they were doing 3vs3. The same goes for ranked queues too. And also, the algorithm isn't the same if you are a full arranged 5, a partial one (arranged 3 for example) or a lone player. Adding won't "split the player base", it's just players who will have more choices, so you'll have less players queuing for SR because some will be queuing for MC. If I follow your ideas, Riot should suppress all ranked queues, all the arranged queue and all the TT queue, so finding a queue would be quicker.

I agree with Mr Lovely, a map editor would be great. But what may happened then? Less people playing the regular maps, less statistics and maybe less money because instead of investing in new champions the players may prefer to spend times either in playing a custom map or in making a custom map. It may be risky for Riot to allow such a feature. P2P games can take this risk but a F2P game like LoL, I'm not sure...
