My theory is this is because of the matching system. You are more likely to get a even skill match up at low win count since there's more players there so if you got a weaker deck then you're pretty ****ed. Meanwhile when you're at 4 wins and up search times are usually longer and there's a better chance to be matched down. Maybe it's just variance though, not like I got a very big sample size.
Small sample size and possibly a just you problem. If you draft well and play well you should almost never get below 4 without some real bad luck/highrolling from opponents. I think I've had 2-3 of those this entire month. Actually happened to me yesterday as my 3 losses were vs 2 Ungolims and 1 turn 5 Soulrest/Soulrest/Royal Sage. I've actually been getting more 4-6 win runs lately for some reason. I think the player base is just getting better than it was a month ago.
I don't think it pairs down very often. I've had 10 min queue times at 6 wins before presumably because it was waiting for another 6 win player. I've also played against IRL friend multiple times and every time we've both had the same record despite my MMR being much much higher.
