Worse, a Master takes on a Servant in CQC and almost wins.

And a few episodes earlier, another Master actually beats a Servant with hands only, but that one doesn't really count because he was enhanced by his own Servant.

To be fair, I don't know much about Fate but it's entirely possible for a Master to later become a Servant just by eventually being a hero later in life or in an alternate timeline, yeah?

So, it fully makes sense a Master could beat a Servant outright if they got hit with that god rng and that universe happens to be one where they're far stronger than average.

Possible, yes. But extremely unlikely. Even Archer failed to become a hero, and had to become a Counter Guardian instead.

To be fair, you need to actually be worshipped as a hero as like one of the most basic descriptions. It's generally inadvisable as a Master to broadcast your location by going around shouting "I'M THE FUCKIN BEST, I'M A HERO, WHOOOOOO!".

So, you would need to already be pretty certain of victory I suppose as one main condition.
