The matchmaker is not trying actively to keep you near the 50/50 mark.
The matchmaker looks only at ship class, ship type, divisions, and tier. It doesn't care about your winrate, it doesn't care about your ELO rating from a third-party site, and it doesn't care about which ships you consider to be overpowered. It attempts to match a division of 3 against another division of 3 regardless of skill-level. If there are 6 Des Moines in a match it will attempt to split them evenly.
"Steamrolls" are not a factor of the matchmaker.
