"Law 1: Never Outshine The Master" - they didn't want to pick you because you were better than them. They feared you would hurt their ego. They would rather have a worse team, without you, and save their ego, than have a better team, with you, and damage their own ego. Clearly, a trash "pro" team. A legitimate "pro" team would always do whatever it takes to make their team better, including self-sacrifice.

Kinda relevant but I play a military sim fps and I’ve been in multiple clans were some members are way better than the leader. In my last clan my leader could not beat me but all that mattered is that we win.

I agree with the sentiment, but I didn’t “outshine the master” commander was his in game name, he wasn’t the team captain he was just trying out for the team. The actual team captain payed very little attention and had a thick southern accent
