MMR is DAM Confusing?

For the longest time, I thought that our MMR is only dependent on our win/loss, but my friend recently informed me that mmr also is affected by KDA, and damage dealt. I was a bit concerned by this since I play mostly tank champions, even though I have decent KDA, I dont think my damage is up to the standard. So when I checked for my MMR at OP.GG, it showed that I have below average MMR even though for the last 20 ranked games, I had 70% win rate, my MMR is below average. Since the season started, I had only climb and didn't drop, so wasnt a huge losing spree. But here is the problem, I am facing players who are pretty much same rank as me, mostly plat 1, with some diamond 5 or plat 2. Any MMR experts care to help to understand this?

MMR has NOTHING to do with KDA or dmg dealt. The current problem is that after the introduction of master tier everything between P1 and D1 is flawed in terms of mmr. Im currently suffering from the exact same, having climbed 2 divisions in one week and having won 13 our of the last 17 games yet still gaining 15 lp and losing 22.

I sadly cant tell what it is but its the games fault.
