One of us has this wrong. Not all matches are being done by average rating that's ONLY when most of the team has a personal rating way lower than the team rating (from buying a team usualy) your 4 2k people and 1 1.5k person = average of 1900. 1900 isn't more than 150 points less than the team rating so they would continue to match against 2k teams you would need 4 people in the 2500 range taking on a 1500 rated person to even make the rule kick in and then they would still play a 2300 rated team (which i assume point gains for the win would be 1-2 ponts at most)

If the average personal rating of the players queuing for a game is more than 150 points below the team’s rating, the team will be queued against an opponent matching or similar to the average personal rating.
