Matchmaking question

How does this thing work exactly? I’ve seen people talking about a “hidden mmr” within your viewable mmr. I have also seen people claim that the matchmaker will put you against tougher opponents and team you with weaker teammates if you are doing well and climbing. Honestly, those things do feel accurate sometimes. Anyone know more about this topic?

See How Competitive Skill Rating Works (Season 10), especially the summary and the section on matchmaking.

People who say this are falling victim to the Dunning-Kruger effect and grasping at straws to try to explain why they are not climbing.
