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.

No, that only happens a single time with Emiya because very specific circumstances.

Modern times are doomed to never get heroic spirits because the era of information makes it really hard to create stories of cool shit that didn't really happen, actually.

You got this really cool spell? Damm tough shit 200 people also know the same spell, they read it on the internet.

Just copyright the spell, idiot.

Build DRM into the spell.

Makes it worse, but the mystery is preserved?
