Smurf Flag? Shadow Pool

So i left game long ago. Lost the main account came back on a new account after 5 years away. Calibrated low but I've moved up about 1000 mmr. I know I do get reported so maybe it's just that, but literally in 80% of my games, and yes I can post screenshot to prove this, I go 24-5 800 gpm, and every single team mates all 4 go 3-11 or 2-15. In other words the vast majority of matches are extremely one sided and I basically have to 1v5 every single time. I lost 6 in row recently with 20 kills every time like this doing 4x the hero dmg of my team mates and 3x their networth.

Im sure someone may understand what's the root cause of this, everyone can't be experiencing this or they would drop till their mmr is low enough that they can reliably 1v5 every single game. Anyone know if this just reports or a smurf flag? Or is this how the matchmaking works now, it offsets your performance to create a balanced team which makes climbing slow.

Reports winrate

I've known for a long time that recent reports have a huge effect, you get matched specifically on your team with other players that have been recently reported, now you can even check when you got reported in steam, and 100% of my loss streak correlate right after a report. with no recent reports my winrate always rockets up to 95%, but once I get like 3 reports it drops pretty heavy, 50% if I am trying, maybe 60% if I really slug but on useast generally once you get reported you start getting every game 3-12 in 12 minutes. I've seen boosters and smurfs coasting through in normal pool. I would really like to see someone at like 500-1000 intentionally get reported like 3-4 times and then play through it see what those wins look like.
