Yeah, the above are correct. And I would guess the drop is extreme so that it's basically impossible to amass keys at a rate higher than your chests/month. It feels pretty bad, frankly.

It is "random" in case you dont understand what "random" means it can theoretically happen every game or it can happen never so.......intended.

It's not that random. The reason he hasn't gotten any is because the drop rate is not linear; you get several at a high chance early on, then the rate drops dramatically.

Basically you are only expected to get around a certain amount, and farming them doesn't work.

So if I'm getting you right. It's basically the CS GO case and key system except people got baited in with keys early on to feel like they are free but now it's just like CS GO where you have to buy keys?

Well, the Key Drop Rate resets at the beginning of the month sure doesn't happen. Will just wait for drops whenever they happen and save any RP for limited content (best route to go).

"The drop rate for key fragments is a curve, not a line. With each fragment you earn, the chance to earn your next one goes down slightly. We wanted to give players who didn't play as frequently a good drop rate for keys, without making it feel like farming was mandatory if you wanted keys."

sauce? my friend who plays with me has earned 3 in the same amount i've earned none, the 76ish games

every time you get a key fragment, the odds of getting another fragment go down. So if you got some when the crafting started, you have decreased odds of getting more.
