So, I've never really played an Iron Banner event before but I did play a good amount of Crucible in D1 and have been playing Crucible here too. I'm trying to take it a little more seriously so that I can get the decorations/armor pieces, using a high-damage, long range selection of weapons and holding tight corners, and rotating quickly sticking with team-mates. Basically, I'm playing it like a high-mobility Counter-Strike.
I don't think I'm that good at Crucible so it's always a little worrying when I'm 1st or 2nd on the scoreboard (which is most matches) and yet we still lose (which is most matches, with a win-rate around 30% or so).
Is the matchmaking system just consistently matching me against players far too difficult? Or newer players?

Welcome to Destiny, where the opponents will not beat you, the matchmaking algorithms will make sure you lose, and often.
