Its 100% luck at this stage, really even before that. You either draw what you need or you dont. Nothing you can do. Roll dice, hope for the matchup wheel to bless you. Hat to break it to ya..... but thats the truth.
I second this. Up until Diamond 5, you're dealing with people who might not be seriously going for legend and you have the benefit of extra bonus stars for a good chunk/most of the ladder. Once you hit 5, be prepared to spend a lot of time bouncing between Diamond 4 and Diamond 2. At that point, you just have to put in the hours and hope that RNG favors you.
Also: Don't listen to anyone telling you to play wild vs. standard. Play what you have fun playing or what you can afford to play. You're the only one that gets to decide what's fun for you.
Why wouldn't you believe that? Literally every major game company performs data tracking just like this. They specifically said that they match based upon your current record, which is exactly what you said they should be doing.
If you can't believe them when they say that they're doing exactly what you say they should be doing, then maybe stop supporting them by playing their games.
Did you even bother to read the post or did you just skim it? They very specifically say that the "hidden mmr" (as you put it) is for data tracking only. Their arena matchmaking tries to match people based on their current arena run record.
To avoid making this mistake in the future, don't comment after skimming a post. Actually take the time to read it.
That's literally the opposite of what this post says. It specifically says that it assigns a value to your record and tries to match you against people with the same value.
It then goes on to say that they track your skill level, but that they don't match based upon it.

Is an achievement really an achievement if someone gives it to you for free?
