Unfair teams is quite subjective, player skill is a matter of opinion in most cases. And usually formed from only a few games, atleast in most problematic cases when people disagree on who's good.
Anyway if its a top 10 game, I'd say the players who are their position should be the captains, otherwise ranking really means nothing, even if it's not "the big deal" anyway.
For example I was playing a title game a while back, with rank #1(me) and rank #2 in game. People demanded that someone else would captain? I mean come on you can't do a title game with anyone else than the rank #2 captaining.... Otherwise ask the admins to drop you in rank, they can actually do that I think.
If you gain rank it's tuff luck, deal with it, lose some games to drop in rank if you can't handle it. If you win, then chances are you actually deserve that rank, so get on with the show and captain your team. I think Elrad picking is a good solution to most games, and someone else in game can make suggestions to team composition too if necessary (2nd captain doesn't know anyone there).
If it's other rank positions sure doesn't matter who captains, I don't mind someone else taking over capping or people passing up on capping either. But if it's a top match the players should cap.
Anyway I've played a nutsload of games on the underdog team, and guess what... it's just a game. Win or lose, fun isn't only to be found in having a perfect balance or the better team, the game can it self be fun. Sometimes you can have a nice laugh about someone really messing it up too.
Yeah I like to get a good team too I don't deny that... most here do, but I have found a lot of fun playing on the nutsty poor or a little weaker team too. And I've won quite a few times on the weaker team, personal contribution can make a big difference. Sure I lost quite a few times too, but it's life, just a game.
