But in the Fate route

True but she doesn't die because plot and conveniently awakened magic abilities. If it was a one on one deathmatch I would bet on berserker but if it was a one on one deathmatch that happened in a visual novel saber would be the winner.


Saying someone doesn't die because "plot" is a dumb argument, especially since saber doesn't beat berserker at all... ever

It's Shirou/Gil/Shirou iirc

I mean Kirie doesn't die in F/Z becuse "plot" Kiritsugu dies before the beginning of FSN because "plot" everything that happens in the story is because "plot"

Except she does die as shown by bad ends. There are far more outcomes where everything goes shitty than where everything goes well

If a fight happened between saber and berserker, I would bet on saber winning because:
- plot
- hot girl
- possible love interest for MC

That being said berserker is stronger than saber imo because as hentai priest said berserker needs to be completely immobilized for saber to charge up her NP


Saber can charge up her NP. Depends on what saber it is. Regardless, result would be the same, berserker wins low-mid diff at most!!

"And archa could caladbolg everyone from distance"

Everyone exept Berserker, Gilgamesh, Avalon Saber and Rider.

What I'm trying to say is that servants such as Lancer, Archer and Saber can fight in close range AND they have powerful distance attacks. Assassin can only fight with his sword. If they will see that Assassin is better in direct combat they can still finish him off with their noble phantasms.
In a "fair fight" Assassin wouldn't be stuck to a single place.
He has presence concealment.
Just wait for an ambush opportunity and Tsubame Gaeshi their asses. Results will vary.

I'm not thinking clearly atm.

Its a VN and all VNs have bad endings. What I'm trying to say is that as long as saber is the servant of the MC there is always a way out they are just my personal problems with the VN. I personally didn't like that she got lucky when lancer hit her with gae bolg etc. Just my personal problems with the VN not trying to argue with you priests lol.

Edit: Forgot about HF but to be fair we have a different heroine in HF. My argument was only for when saber is love interest

How is that a problem though? In order for there to be a story there would have to be a plot. The plot is responsible for every event in the story, therefore it is necessary. Saber dies in the VN, you start over because that story has now ended.
Yes she got lucky with Gae Bolg, stats do emphasize that she has a high luck rating. That is why she's able to survive, call it plot if you want, but it is fully explained within the story.
All bad ends are canon in universe, therefore all bad ends count. It's not that all VN's have them, since most VN's don't have a multiuniverse that links many series together such as the one by typemoon does.

Edit: HF doesn't change the argument though, Saber never beats berserker in any route. The fight first fights against berserker and lancer happen in all 3 routes.

Although it is true that luck is a deciding factor in battle I felt there could have been a better reason the author could have made up. Yes plot is necessary so I get why she survived but no work no matter how well written will not be perfect and I am just pointing out what i felt were flaws. I am not trying to say that F/SN is bad or anything. I really enjoyed it but as a fan I tend to nitpick a lot and so I'm posting what i thought were imperfections since this is a discussion thread.

Those aren't flaws though, there is a system in the story with the luck factor being a part of it. Same as lancer having crap luck also plays a part in the story. You can't call a well thought out system a flaw. What other way could you explain Saber surviving an unblockable/undodgeable blow? Anything other than the predetermined stats would not have worked, without it looking like what you would call "plot armor."
It's like i've argued with others about what a deus ex machina is. I've stated it can't be a deus ex machina if it's been showed throughout the series even if its only barely explained, since a deus ex machina would have to be completely out of nowhere.
Same here, in order for it to be plot armor it would have to be something that isn't already predetermined. Stat ratings and Skills were already predetermined, therefore they are not considered plot armor.

I know you don't think FSN is bad, i'm just showing a counter argument to what you view as flaws. This is a discussion after all.

Only things covered in this anime are not spoilers. Other stuff should be in spoiler tags because this thread is for everyone looking for a power level discussion but don't want to be spoiled about other TM series they haven't read/watched yet.

Exactly. I don't want to exclude Tsukihime, KnK, the rest of Fate/ and other Type-Moon works in this discussion thread, but then those who wish to discuss these works should take those who haven't read them yet into consideration.

Fate Berserker(sorry)
Zero Saber(unless Rin's her master)
Fate Lancer
Zero Assassin
Fate Archer(funny isn't it?)
Fate Caster
Fate Rider


Well, I'm not sure how much I need to go into detail. Saber's a coinflip, just judging by masters and assuming Shirou is worse than Kiritsugu.

Rider might be controversial, but her mystic eyes are perfect against massive amounts of fodder and it decreases the opponent's stats by 1 while Bellerophon increases all of her stats by 1 while being a great AoE attack, she completely counters Zero Rider's reality marble and has an all-stat advantage of 2.
