Almost Certainly an issue with Hero Selection Matchmaker?

To clarify, I'm aware that everyone is trying to play Mina, and that queue times are certainly higher if looking to play her.

However, I have been trying to play as her for 20 games straight since yesterday, and have not gotten to play them once. Each and every time, queue had lasted well over 5 minutes, usually up to the 10 minute range. I'd be totally willing to put up for such queue times if it meant playing as the new hero, but if I'm going to be playing as a character I had selected with white priority, I don't think the game would have my queue last upwards of 10 minutes if I hadn't received my highest priority hero (Mina) a single time the past 22 games.

For further context, I have had Mina selected on Purple Priority, no heroes Orange, and 3 heroes in White priority (typically Haze, Talon, Shiv, and Ivy. But I've also tried having my 3 lowest MMR heroes on white as a user in the discord suggested) and still haven't played as Mina a single time. I've asked the Mina player in each game who they picked, and their queue times, and more often than not I'm running into people that have had sub 30 second queue times, with upwards of 3 games + on Mina back to back.

Most of my games have hovered around Alchemist as their average rank as well. If there's any suggestions from other users on how best to get around a problem like this it'd be really appreciated.
 
The same issue. I played 8 games with Mina's purple priority and 3 heroes with white priority (with the highest pick rate) and didn't play any games as Mina.
