How does MMR work when grouped? (lemmy.fmhy.ml)

I've noticed when I play TFT with a friend of mine who is much better at the game, I lose almost every match. We are similar ranks right now, but he's climbed much higher than me in the past. When I play solo I feel much more likely to top 4, but as soon as we group up I am back to 7th and 8th place every match, while he wins nearly every game.

I was wondering if there was some hidden MMR component to matchmaking in the ranked queue, or if this is all in my head. Anyone have any insights?

If you win against higher MMR opponents, you will get more MMR; if you lose, you will lose less than if you played against your ELO.
Similarly, if you have a higher MMR and lose to someone with a lower MMR, you will lose more MMR.
