What's up with all the diamonds in my matches...

so ive been getting real bad luck off and on through this past year where i just randomly get matched up with way higher elo players, without even being in a full 5's group. i get if i que up with 5 friends but when its me and 1 other friend who is gold 5 and we're stuck facing 1 d5 a g1 a g2 and a p5, while my team is two g5 a b1 and two unranked who clearly didnt know the mechanics to play bot lane from watching them. its really hard to handle a match and win or least try and keep up when u got three people who cant understand how to play safely and try to catch someone out. so i guess to my point sorry for the ranting, but "what's up with this seemingly unfair match up in the que system?"

I have bitched about this constantly, but riot refuses to match ranked and unranked mmr

so someone can be diamond in ranked, but still have a silver/gold normals mmr

it got better once our b1 nunu started trash talking saying the match lose was my fault i had most cs and more kill participation, and then he started feeding on purpose through the match and said he was just waiting for it to end when mid game we came close to catching up a bit (mind u it wasnt much but it showed we had potential) http://matchhistory.na.leagueoflegends.com/en/#match-details/NA1/2004638188/203659915?tab=stats just to kind of help show this was the match im refering to from the instance

They should just use the greater of Ranked and Normal MMR for matchmaking in Normal games. It would help mitigate the issue.
