PvP matchmaking
Most people do place against teams they are close in skill to. The most common reasons for it not working as expected™ are:
- you are in a duo-queue with someone, where the average MMR of you both is used
- you are playing in a quiet time, so the game sacrifices ideal matches for faster matches
In the first case, there isn’t much you can do other than not duo-queue, or be similar in skill.
In the later case, you can change when you play, but at least it means that both teams are equally likely to get the low-rank players, so it’s not gonna mess up your MMR, just be less fun.
