Why are my Apex Legends lobbies so good?

@Redmattgame I honestly really struggle with this too.  I have played probably close to 12,000 games but my stats are pretty trash even for that playtime.  I genuinely feel like, more often than not, most lobbies are above my paygrade which keeps my stats trash as I seem to go down *very* quickly when engaged in a fight.  I find it hard to do significant damage at medium range.  Sometimes I get it right but more often or not I clip them a couple of times, they turn and instantly down me.  It's really really frustrating.  I mean should I not be against players with the same sort of issues/level?  It could be they were just having a good game, that happens to me too where I'll get a good total of kills and it feels like I can't miss but that's rare.  

The balancing between players does definitely feel unbalanced the majority of the time.  I have no idea what heuristic they use to lump you in with other players but it feels like it's not working.  It could be the large number of games I have played factors into this and is working against me.  It's probably pretty hush hush how they do this and I imagine they tinker with it all the time.
