Played a game, just in normal, for the first time in 2.5 weeks. 2.5 weeks ago, I was matched with people anywhere from Silver III - Gold I. Last night, I was playing with people anywhere from unranked to Silver V. Did my ELO/MMS decay and if so, how does that affect my next ranked games?

Normals and rankeds don't affect each other. You have separate matchmaking ratings for them. That's also why you can play with people of all kind of ranked elos in normals, the ratings just aren't connected.

Elo of all kinds decay, I'm pretty sure.

But it's probably because everyone's in ranked or something, if no one near your Elo is playing matchmaking puts you with whoever it damn well pleases.
