I guess this is my final week of reminding everyone about best girl, Tamamo. Obviously she's my choice for best girl, but also for Caster. "This isn't even my final form" jokes aside, she knowingly only uses a fraction of her true magic potential, and on top of that, her magic bypasses Magic Resistance, making her an actually pretty formidable foe.
Edit: I also want to say that it will be a crime if Tamamo does not appear at all in Last Encore. It will be even more of a crime if Tamamo isn't the secret heroine, and we're all being fooled. Tamamo>Nero any day tbh. |

What is this blasphemous list there's not a single one here that's even close, ok there were some close but some didn't win and all or nothing.
Here's what it should really look like Err there's gonna be serious spoilers to various fate franchises but I'm assuming you're already at peace with that or you wouldn't be here in the first place. Saber: Altera If your Altera is hell bent on destroying civilization obviously you didn't raise her right and you need to double back turn her into baby hop into a hyperbolic time chamber and raise her again till she showers you with love, praise and undying affection (err the platonic/familial kind of love, ain't no one decent who wants to raise a raise a child as a lover, that'd just gross.) Archer: EMIYA The original GAR and the only one who can surpass him in GARNERS I'd himself, which brings me to option 2. I will also accept Miyuverse shiro who will make up for his lack of firepower over his counter guardian counterpart with Imouto power. Lancer: Scáthach aka Shishou What's better that one instakilling spear? How about 2? What's that instakill skills are gimmicky and done work? Yeah well F you here's a spear in your heart. Don't doubt shishou's skills, she will rekt your face. Rider: err Francis Drake Cause like the original was probably some old dude who rarely showered. Fate' s version is a hot chick with ahem sizeable assets who probably also didn't shower. But like she was hot. Plus in fate extra she put up with an alternate shinji for like a couple of days which to anyone I'm his immediate vicinity would be like eons. So she deserves recognition for not immediately murdering him. Err admittedly I've never held much favor for the rider class. CASTER : TAMAMO NO MAE All caps cause she is best girl, period. She's also a shoe-in to win all and every grail war cause of love. OK ok so real stats: she's so broken that with all her tails she's a God with all the brokenness of God's in nasuverse to the point where her 1 tail form was too weak to protect her master she meditated/trained till she regrew her 9 tails then went back in time protected her master and then chopped back off said tails to return to mortal life with her husband/wife. Yeah I don't even know how that makes sense but it's all stuff I've heard second hand since atlus hasn't published the game that scene is from (fate extra ccc) in English. Nonetheless Tamamo is gets first place period. Assassin: King hassan OK so king Hassan was spot on but for different reasons. Go to Pinterest right now and search "grandpa Hassan" Then read the comics specifically the ones with the female master of chaldea and you can stop when you understand that Granpa Hassan is the best assassin which should be 3 comics but do it last cause you won't stop at 3 and end up scouring the web looking for them all. Seriously if anyone knows where I can find the full collection of these in one place I'd love to know. Berserker: Lancelot Finally at the end and the role goes to Lancelot cause of the sheer versatility of his skills. Under attack under a dimly lit lamppost and you forgot your broken laser sword at home. Never fear cause that lamppost is now your weapon. Seriously though anything that he acknowledge as a weapon becomes a weapon means that if he watched avatar he could possibly weaponize air. Hell put him through medical school and suddenly get out of the way spencer (resident evil umbrella founder) there's a new ground breaking virus called the L-virus, developed by professor Lancelot. Turns you into a hulking monster capable of limited speech, insane strength, extends the whole anything is a weapon oh and also goes nuts over saberfaces. That's an unintended side effect I'm sure, he'll work the bugs out of it soon. Wow this was far more fun to write than I expected. I also had a hoot imagining berserker Lancelot at medical school. At school in the front row Lancelot is seated Teacher: And the answer to the question is? Lancelot shoots his hand into the air and waves it frantically. Teacher: anyone? Anyone at all besides Lancelot More frantic waving Teacher: *sigh* yes sir Lancelot Lancelot: AAAAAAARRRRRRRRRRRTTTTTTTTHHHHHHHHHHUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUU!!!!!!! Teacher:This is my life now. Disclaimer: the above list is purely for comedic effect if it wasn't already obvious and the only factor taken into consideration is wifu and GAR potential. Not in any particular order. |

You're dismissing Scathach waaaaay too easily. She's mastered pretty much every form of combat which is why she's taught so many heroes all they know, plus she kills gods as a hobby so she'd wipe the floor with Karna's pasty ass. She's also unkillable so long as the Land of Shadows exists. So the only real downside is that you can't actually summon her since she never died and went to the throne.
Herc was only so well behaved because Illya was his master. So unless you're a homunculus literally made out of magic circuits you're gonna have a bad time with him. My choice summons are thus: Saber: Saber Lily. Not as powerful as her older self but much cuter. Saber Frankenstein's monster is also good. Archer: I have bad luck with Archers. Since Euryale's off the table maybe I'll go with Nobunaga. She's probably fair much better in modern day with all our new fire arms. David might be good for his box of instant death. Or Atalanta for waifu reasons. Lancer: Probably go Shisou due to my reasons above. Or Elizabeth. Just have her perform a concert and kill all the enemy masters with her voice. Easy win. Rider: I do love the concept for the Pale Rider but I'll go with my FGO obsession Saint Martha. She comes with her own dragon and can pummel the shit out of anyone with her bare hands. Caster: Medea Lily is adorable, but not very powerful. Tamamo is also top tier waifu. Assassin: King Hassan really is the only option here. Berserker: Kiyohime. Dragon powers and is extremely loyal so long as you don't lie to her. Ruler: Martha again, especially due to "ROADO ROLLA DA! WRRRRRRY!" Avenger: Jeanne Alter of course. |

Ehhh...I've always thought that the best servant to summon would be Heracles as an Archer. I know the article said no alternate versions are allowed, but being able to oneshot people with poison arrows (that also happen to hit like freight trains) sounds like a recipe for success.

I'm not getting into this argument, I'll just point out that the image they use for Solomon is a bit incorrect. Will spoil it because uh, yeah:
spoiler[https://i.imgur.com/QSQSYWL.jpg] This article should have FGO spoilers warning considering the content. |

My choices are:
Saber Nero, as I love her noble phantasma and her character design Archer I'd go with EMIYA as he is the anti Gilgamesh and is pretty sensible in and out of a fight Caster I'd go with Medea, only because rule breaker. Lancer Brynhildr is my choice mostly because of her mythos Assasin I'd b]probably go with Jack the Ripper (female) since she has the ability to incapacitate an entire gender Rider I'll go with Iskander because he is total bro, and his ability to use his soilders for various uses would be handy. Berserker I'd go with Arcuaid Brunstead and yes she is technically a servant in a very naruverse kind of way |

Well, Grail wars never actually have real winners. If you're going to lose you at least want to get in as many mana transfer sessions as possible |

If you think about it, so long as you get to stand next to your waifu/husbando, aren't you winning anyway? |

heh this is where you're wrong. This is actually a very crucial step in powering up a servant. According to nasuverse logic, the more well known and accepted a servant is the more power they will possess. As I have mentioned before Tamamo is basically a watered down version of a very powerful god meaning she's already got the upper hand. All we're doing here is further increasing the gap between first and second place and first place is Tamamo no mae but you already knew that As for being serious about the article they're all solid choices, at least from what I see. I mean a real grail war would have far too many variables and master-servant affinity as well as general temperament could very well make or break a team. So yeah if I'm gonna be in said war I wouldn't want a servant to just "survive" but to "live" because nothing is guaranteed(except for FGO gatcha, you're guaranteed to always get some trash every pull )
uh are you talking about prisma illyas shiro who is basically a romcom harem protag what with there being no 5th grail war in his version or the Miyu version where they become the heroic spirit that they 'summon' in which yeah poor Shiro all he had was a mapo tofu obsessed version of Kotomine but hey at least he channeled his hedonistic nature of wanting to see people in pain into something profitable. I can just imagine him in Shokugeki no soma with him, Soma, Rindou and Nao getting together and brainstorming how to make their most tortuous dish yet. But hey at least he got half of his wish fulfilled. |

I did seriously consider Tamamo for Best Caster, but came to the conclusion that getting back her tails (which she needs at least some of in order to compete with Merlin and especially Solomon) is just too difficult to be achievable under most circumstances. Beyond that, however, she's still an extremely solid Caster, so consider her the unofficial #3.

And what's your unofficial stance on her best girl ranking? |

I'm not sure how she would compare to the other two but Scathach was dismissed criminally quickly. Ignore the insta-kill noble phantasm (two of them, I'll remind you) entirely, and she's still obscenely powerful. Case in point, Wisdom of the Abyss. Long story short, except for exclusive skills, she can display all skills up to A or B rank. That is absurd. That means we have a top-tier lancer in term of fighting power who can sneak around almost as well as any of the Hassan (Presence Concealment), secure a workshop up to par with a serious Caster (Territory Creation), shrug off magic like a Saber would (Magic Resistance), maybe even gleam into the future with an Archer's Clairvoyant. That's not even getting into her runic magic, or the fact that if she considers you a true hero she can bestow upon you with any of said skills. She's portrayed here as a gimmicky servant, but Scathach is one of the most well-rounded servant I can think of (along with Cu. People forget that even without his NP, he's also ridiculously strong, plus he's good enough with runes that he qualifies as a caster.).
