A mid carry is a performance that technically counts as carrying — you did more than your teammates, your numbers were above average — but the ceiling was so low that the whole thing still felt uninspiring. You won, but barely. You carried, but it required no heroics. Mid carry is the carry equivalent of a participation medal: you were the best option available, which says more about the options than about you. The Gen Z 'mid' (mediocre) applied to 'carry' creates a precise deflation: the bar was clears, but just barely, and nobody's writing home about it.
It was a mid carry at best — they were all new players so it barely even counts.
