Matchmaking doesn't take into consideration your points. Its why people complain about the lack of de-ranking and 0 point crystal players. A 0 point crystal player can be easily pitted against someone who is in the top 10 on the leaderboards. There's no real matchmaking when it comes to ratings other then looking at a tier range which is pointless.

That said, I can't fault SE for not having a stricture matchmaking because the higher rated crystal players in the 2k+ range would probably have 30 minute queues for a pvp mode that's rarely longer than 2 minutes.
