Done exclusively solo (jobs played: MNK, DRG, some SCH).

You literally did mostly just get lucky if that's from purely solo queueing. You're 1 player in a 72 players match; 1 person on a 24 person team, you make up only 4% of your team. So either you're some amazing player that is able to carry the random teams you end up on to sway that drastic of a win rate, or much more likely, you're above average and you got lucky with the matchmaking system.

And I say this having achieved a much higher win rate solo-queuing the past week on one of my alts, over 40 matches. I'm not going to pretend I'm some amazing PvPer, I know I'm decent enough at it, but I also know full well that a huge part of it was getting really lucky with matchmaking and ending up on teams with competent team mates that knew how to work together. And yes, more than a few of those matches I ended up on the same team as premade groups.
