Remember that this game is brand new
It will be at least a month before people are starting to sort into a proper scale of skill levels.
You can't expect people to just magically be placed in correct ELO as if Blizzard knows how good you are at the game before you even play it.
You and the OP seem to completely miss this concept.
it only takes around 100 games (according to Blizzard, when talking about their MOBA) to find a good estimate of your mmr. Hell, in SC2 it only takes 30-40.
The games been out for 3 days so far and I am already seeing people with 300+ games. I personally have over 200 games played. Something tells me it won't take more than a week or two before the system gets a healthy majority of players at or near their correct mmr.
Even when new seasons start for games like LoL/HotS/SC2 and everyone starts over it still only takes a few days to sort itself out....somehow you seem to completely miss this concept.
