Kotomine ordered him to kill himself. He didn't die in glorious battle, he was ordered to seppuku himself, just like his predecessor. Lancers are terrible, you'd be better off with Assassin or Caster than the guy who always gets screwed thanks to E rank luck

Lancers are freaking incredible. Pretty skilled, nice weapons with cool gimicks and absolute Bros.
Their masters suck though. And their luck

Hello.

My name is Kayneth El-Melloi Archibald. I am the eldest son of the 9th generation of a prestigious mage bloodline.

I am going to participate in the so called "Holy Grail War" soon. My victory is already assured, since the vessel needed to summon "Alexander the Great" will arrive here soon. But I will not underestimate this battle like a fool and I have come here today to ask you cunning people for advice.

What should I do to increase my odds to win over these other 6 honorable contestants?

Nothing, man. You're set as the greatest Magus in this war.

Karna would be unstoppable as a summon. Especially as Archer, the hindus really knew how to mary sue their gods up.

>The bow of Lord Shiva, the Destroyer.Lord Shiva left it in the care of Lord Indra who on instruction from Lord Shiva gave it to Lord Parashurama. Lord Parashurama kept it as his personal bow and later gave it to Karna. The Sanskrit name ‘Vijaya’ means ‘victory’ and this bow is said to give sure victory to the possessor. The string of this bow cannot be broken by any kind of astra or weapon.Every time an arrow is released from this bow, it created a terrible twang, which is said to be loud as thunder causing terrible fear in enemies and produces flashes of light as brilliant as lightning, which blinds the enemy. Every time an arrow is aimed, the energy of the arrow is amplified by multiple times as this bow is charged with sacred mantras.No weapon, not even Pashupatastra, can harm a warrior who has Vijaya bow in his hand, as the name Vijaya implies victory to the wielder.
>>
>>140952232
So how did she die? Suicide?
>>
>>140953933

Karna's overrated, if you aren't a AAA grade magus, just his prana burst will obliterate you in ten seconds if he uses it in battle.

Same issue as all the most powerful servants. The stronger they are, the stronger the master has to be to sustain them, especially if they go all-out.

The war is like a week or two.

What's wrong with cuck o'lane or whatever his name was? He's basically unbeatable in melee duels as long as there's no luck stat bullshit, and he's fast as fuck so he can get away from any servants he can't beat. A surefire way to win the Holy Grail would be to summon Lancer and then team with another master who has a servant with a different sort of skillset but couldn't actually beat Lancer in a fight. Probably assassin so you can sneak kill/outsmart the op servants like gil and saber.
>>
>>140953933
The problem is that he would be weak against germs with his D level hygiene.
gangrene would eat him after 3 days, so you have to win the war before the second day ends.

Couldn't Lancer have actually beaten Hercules? I could be totally wrong, as it's been a while since I read/watched any Fate stuff but I'm pretty sure Lancer was faster, so all he has to do is stab him with gay bulge and wait for him to heal, then rinse and repeat 9 times.

Unless of course Herc also has an A+ luck stat.

>Do you think he can summon a designated shitting street reality marble?
Considering the servants' powers come from the general belief, it would probably follow what the world thinks about when the they hear the word indian god.
A designated shitting street reality marble wouldn't be out of the question.

The real question is : can Shiki destroy such a reality marble?
Can Shiki kill shit?
Can Shiki kill indian shit?

Being such a retard in front of kirei pretty much is equal to giving something.

Its like going with a fat purse into a ghetto. Sure technically its called getting robbed but you pretty much give you purse away

How come nobody ever summoned Jesus? Or even one of the apostles? They'd be easy as shit to summon because there's so many relics of them, and they'd be ridiculously strong because everyone knows of them.
>>
>>140961865
Does the shit truly exist?
If it was in a liquid state, Shiki's knife wouldn't be able to cut it, Shiki can't cut water, so Shiki can't cut shit. Therefore, Shiki wouldn't be able to use his mystic eye on on the shit.
He can still cut Apu, so he can probably cut the indian guy summoning the reality marble.

You got me on the apostles, but Jesus himself is one of the individuals that actually can't be summoned unless he willingly incarnates himself, most likely into the Saver class. Nasuverse YHWH is for all intents and purposes as powerful as the Biblical YHWH, which means if Jesus doesn't want to come play in your war there's nothing you can do to force him.

Nasu has said it would be possible, but that it would be a very uphill battle for Lancer and he'd have to use Rune magic to enhance Gae Bolg in order to win.

Herakles has a very clear advantage in matchups against every servant in the 5th HGW except Gilgamesh. Most can kill him once or twice like Caster and Rider, Archer can kill him up to six times in an all-out battle scenario, Lancer and Saber both have a chance at completely beating him albeit a slim one (Rin Saber has much better odds but is still at a disadvantage). Fake and True Assassin are helpless against him.

There's actually only a few servants out there period who have good odds of beating Herakles. In Grand/Order, an entire party of Servants were completely helpless against him due to lacking any A-rank attacks or offensive noble phantasms. He only died due to mindlessly touching David's Ark, which is an instant-kill for all 12 lives. His madness that makes him easy to control is his only true weakness as Berserker, because he lacks the knowledge and intelligence that made Heracles the greatest hero in Greece in the first place.
>>
>>140962736
Saber beat him with an asspull about killing 7 of his lives at once. Apart from bullshit like that Herc is nigh impossible to take down. You need 12+ A+ rank Noble Phantasms, only Gil has that many.
>>
>>140962391
Heracles and Karna are also gods, but those guys show up without a hitch.
>>
>>140962879
How do you kill someone 7 times at once
>>
>>140953440
Go to the Tohsakas' house and ask for the father's red christal he wants to give to his daughter.
>>
>>140962879
You don't need 12+ A rank NP, you need an NP that can kill him 12 times in one blow.
>>
>>140962736

Any Servant with A-rank strength can execute potentially limitless different A-rank attacks and kill him twelve times in a row in a single battle, but that is tantamount to saying that you're going to try to kill one of the strongest servants in the universe twelve times in a row with no chance to rest and recover. A-rank strength is so rare that these kinds of Servants are unlikely to appear at all.

A Servant with an A-rank noble phantasm can also kill him with normal attacks and not having to activate the weapon's special ability, like Saber did to him in UBW. Currently unknown if Godhand develops a resistance to normal attacks with A-rank noble phantasms, since Saber never got a rematch with Berserker.

A-rank spells can kill him too, but Medea, one of the most powerful magi we've ever seen, knows only one or two A-rank offensive spells.

Only Servants with egregiously powerful weapons and attacks like Karna or Gilgamesh have good odds of beating Heracles in a direct battle.

Summon an indian god, then enjoy drowning the other master in a sea of diarhea "summoned" by your servant. Don't forget to also drown your wife at the end, she's a backstabing whore.

Nasu never said Heracles had never existed. Fake assassin is a unique case where someone who wasn't the heroic spirit was summoned in his place, because there is no actual Sasaki Kojirou spirit. Heracles had no issues with his summoning. What Nasu really meant is elaborated on in Grand Order: Heracles is an Earth-type spirit. Earth-type spirits are heroes whose legends are unbelievable and seemingly fictitious, that are strong against monsters but weak against humans.

Nasu also said that Rider could only kill Heracles once or twice with Bellerophon. Also, the reason why Caliburn killed Herc seven times is because of a bullshit dimensional refraction effect that amplified the sword's power due to it reuniting with its owner, Saber, from across time and space.

>>140963284
Blasting his head of counts for one life. Blasting him with a blast of energy that tears his whole body apart counts for more lifes. Maybe it was a prolonged attack that cost him multiple lifes to sustain through. Its a piece of fiction with sketchy rules. Dont be surprised that you can blast 7 lifes away.
>>
>>140963256

There are no actual exceptions to that. Tamamo is not Amaterasu, she broke herself off as a singular mortal fragment and became her own independent existence that is counted as a human. Orion (Artemis) is not actually Artemis, it's just that Artemis took over his body to have fun because she wants to hang out with him. The servant Orion is still Orion in every way, just effectively sockpuppeted and altered in appearance.
>>
>>140963354
Alright. I give up.
>>
>>140963284
It's bullshit and it's best not to think about it. The whole 'takes multiple lives in a single blow' was a contrivance created because Nasu was writing and thought "Ah shit, I really don't want to figure out 7 different ways for Saber to kill Berserker" and just farted out "She killed him 7 times over with one hit, yeah that'll do".

Suffice to say taking multiple God Hand lives at once is an extremely rare thing and needs some incredibly specific circumstances to occur. In Sabers case it was the miracle of being reunited with Caliburn through time and space that gave her attack extra metaphysical properties. No other servant will be able to take multiple Berserker lives in a single blow without something like that.

Actually, you may be able to cheat with Jesus due to semantics.

He tried to capture the feeling of the VN and use it for the atmosphere in the anime, even if that is something very hard, if not impossible to do for a TV series.
If it were one big movie, he could have achieved it, but it wasn't.
You can't capture the feeling of the VN with one 25 minute episode each week.
The VN also put a lot of work into Shirous thoughts, while the anime had a 3rd person narrator.

There's really no excuse for the person that summons assassin to not win every single time by just killing alll the other masters (especially since every master in these fights is so full of hubris, incompetence or both that sneak attacks are something they can't really prepare for at all)

For a while, Hassans were some of the deadliest thanks to their ability to kill masters. But, then everyone & everyone's mom developed a counter. Some stayed near their Servants or otherwise. It's a dangerous thing so deadly that everyone has a counter & thus it stops being deadly.

For one, finding the Masters entirely is a bitch. Plenty disguise themselves or have some connections that save them. Assassins, compared to other servants, are mostly weak as fuck. They mostly rely on stealth & surprise.

>potential weaknesses
A weakness that an Assassin would be unable to exploit if another Servant is there. Aside from Kojiro, Li Shuwen & Semiramis, all very rare exceptions, Assassins are laughably weak in a regular fight. In fact, these three more or less suck at sneaking & are some of the least Assassin-like ones in the class.
>>
>>140965701
>none of them are crazy preppers that have unlimited supply works in their basement so they can go full neet
Didn't Tokiomi basically spend the entirety of the war sitting in his basement? The only time he left was to look at Casters tentacle monster on Gigamesh's golden flying hot rod. It's definitely the optimal way to play the game. Shirou and Tohsaka keep going to school because they're pants on head retarded

>whats stopping assassin from just killing all the people that work for him to starve him out
The opponent having men who are aware of this system & him personally being able to summon his Servant at any time. The Assassin would sooner get killed than get shit done.

>seige tactics
A siege is a highly risky proposition anon. You leave yourself vulnerable too. A well garrisoned & supplied castle can last extremely long.
>>
>>140966122
Assassin is kinda behind the times. We're in the modern age now but they don't even use guns.
>>
>>140966217
Because he could have stocked up on enough food beforehand? The wars dont last that long. Also if your dudes are getting murdered and you dont see who did it you know its probably assassin and you can just set up magic shit to fuck him up because he is as weak as can be.

Also you have to worry about someone else running in and fucking you up while you are trying to starve a dude out.
>>
>>140966276
Their accomplishments are worth shit unless their story involved fending off 1000 assassination attempts.

He probably had to assassinate guarded targets. I don't know if you're all pretending to be retarded but assassin doesn't have fight a single servant to kill masters. It's not even remotely accurate to say he's going up against something he never went before, his assassination smarts ought to be at a whole other level than other heroic spirits. It won't even be a fight which is why I said outplay not beat you stupid idiots.

Hundred Face is weak because its individual fragments can't fight worth shit and can less trespass on a magically fortified workshop than the other Hassans. The other Hassans were weak because even as a single Servant they were still crap at frontal combat, meaning that one slip-up being detected and they'd get murdered by the enemy Servant.

This all sounds like you have no goddamn clue what the hell you're even going on about. Cursed Arm Hassan won exactly zero battles on his own without the Shadow playing support, and then got his shit beaten in by a human.

You're limited to your own retarded imagination which is why you see assassin as weak but in a real world I would expect assassin to be much smarter than what I can come up with in 10 minutes of speculation those expectations weren't met. You can probably do something clever with 100 guys. Presence concealment had a lot of potential if assassin waited patiently like an assassin should and attacked at the worst possible moment but did any servant do that? In all of fate did assassin ever once attack someone 1v2 or 1v3? Uro just threw him at an unbeatable opponent like cannon fodder and called it a day.

Have you read the VN?

Nice rephrasing, only they missed what I mean. Assassins in life usually didn't assassinate a mage, let alone a mage who's prepared for them. In most previous wars, the magus' didn't prepare as many home defences to anticipate Assassin attacks so Assassins got shit done well. Nowadays barriers around the house is just about every day but not in the early wars.
>All for no reason. Just go hide in shame as you well should you fucking retard, if you're going to play the "I know the source material better than you" card don't simultaneously make shit up.

Given the anonymous posting, I'm unsure if you're the guy calling "seige tactics' or not. In case you are, that was a faulty assumption that Grail Wars go on for long enough that food is a major concern. About 2 weeks max for the 5th for example.

Hercules is a better anything than Berserker, pretty much. But he's easier to control as Berserker. The reason they summoned him in that class was because A. Illya is a rare case and would be able to supply something as huge as Hercales, plus the additional supply a Berserker demands and B.

The fact that an assassin class exists indicates that there's probably a good quantity of heroic spirits that fit the archetype. Tomorrow Nasu can invent a new assassin character, maybe another hassan and give them whatever broken power he wants. You're fixating on the historical hashinshins too much, there's no reason to believe that heroic spirits that fit the assassin archetype that can kill mages easily can't exist, especially considering that in this universe magic exists. It just makes sense that a heroic spirit tier assassin would have something up their sleeve against magical barriers, maybe kiri can break barriers with his bone bullets and he's a heroic spirit now according to the new card collecting game. I don't know why magical barriers are such game changers in your eyes.

Asterios is stronger in terms of brute strength, but Herc easily outclasses him in literally every other stat besides Noble Phantasm, in which they're equal. But not really because Herc has two while Astterios only has the one.

>>140969924
Because Berserker means you have better control over the servant's actions, but it's more limited. The idea was that Hercules would have tried to save Illya no matter what, and you can't always rely on command seals to do the job, and it wouldn't be wise to rely entirely on Illya to go through with it on her own if she had the options of just letting the giant father figure at her side help her.

Read the fucking novel.
>>
>>140970512
I think so.

Priapus also murdered various people and creatures by fucking them in the ass with his massive cock.
>>
>>140970559
Because he was given Avalon and ordered to use it. On top of that he knew they got it from Cornwall, so it had to be the catalyst to summon Arthur. Summoning a Saber wasn't his first choice, but that's what the Einsberns wanted. If it were up to Kerry he would have had a Caster or an Assassin.

Summoning defaults to the summoner's personality only when there's no catalyst involved. A good example of this is Ryuunoske and Caster, even though Ryuunoske fucked up the summoning ritual.
>>
>>140970313
>Should we assume there exists a Saber who murders people with his wang because there exists a possibility?
No because there's no reason to think that. There is reason to think that there are a lot of really good assassins because the archetype exists.
>Magic isn't even universally known in the Nasuverse.
Is there a single heroic spirit that doesn't know about magic.
>Why would there automatically exist one?
Not automatically but it makes sense that a roguish type of guy that lives in a magical universe could get past a barrier just as he could get past locked doors and guards. Otherwise assassins would get cockblocked by barriers all the time.

You have no fucking idea what the fuck you're talking about. the original system by design does not summon absolutely anyone who isn't Hassan i-Sabbah unless you fuck with it.

Besides, this all originated from that buttfucking retarded claim about Assassin being a sure win because you had no fucking clue what the war and the targets are even like. You've gone from claiming Hundred Face specifically was a sure-win, to wanking vaguely about SOME theoretical Heroic Spirit you can't name. You're nowhere even close to the original argument and you're still fucking up.

Plenty of the buffed up Casters like andersen were completely normal people who only became capable of supernatural feats after being turned into Heroic Spirits.

Also, whatever happens to all of this being about the 5000-year old Hassan who lived a hundred generations? Still gonna pretend you haven't gotten here after doing the argumentative equivalent of tumbling down a set of Tibetan-sized stairs?

>>140970692
>There is reason to think that there are a lot of really good assassins because the archetype exists
There's a line between "good" & "famous for bypassing all magical magical barriers".
>Is there a single heroic spirit that doesn't know about magic
No because the Grail fills the Servants with info on recent events as to not stick out like sore thumbs. This is why King Arthur knows what an airplane is.
>it makes sense that a roguish type of guy that lives in a magical universe could get past a barrier just as he could get past locked doors and guards

Oh, so now you're not just claiming the existence of some legendary-yet-somehow-simultaneously-unknown Assassin from the Age of the Gods who you would somehow summon despite there being no catalyst, you ALSO assume you would have the knowledge and skill to tweak with the summoning system of the Greater Grail in ways that have only ever been replicated by the people who designed that system, and a sorceress from the Age of the Gods.

Does literally any part of your argument rise above "little kid claiming to have an anti-everything shield during playground mock fights" level?

>>140970536
That's not it. Normally, you can't summon anything other than Assassin because the Holy Grail has shit A.I. The best Assassins would be those that no one knows about, but this is a paradox because you NEED fame to be a Heroic Spirit. Since anyone recorded in the Throne of Heroes is a shit assassin by default because they became famous, they're all immediately counted out. Since Hassans are the origin of assassins in Nasu's heavily misinformed mind, they are the next best thing and thus they are the only ones that can be summoned.

But ever since the Grail was fucked up, it was allowed to do things that it couldn't do previously, like summon people like Medea or Gilles. Kojiro was also summoned under improper channels so he was never considered to be a proper Servant, hence why a True Assassin could be summoned despite the fact that an Assassin had already been summoned. Normally, you can't summon any more Servants after the initial seven. Even if one dies, another cannot be summoned to replace them.

And none of them are stealth-specific divine-monster/mage-killers from the Age of the Gods. What's your fucking point?

You keep demanding everyone accept your theoretical Assassin exists because the class that was not meant to be exceptional by its fucking designers should have someone exceptional.

In its inception, the class was ONLY meant to house Hassan i-Sabbah. That's it. Claiming that the class' existence means there should be someone with any set of skills who isn't Hassan i-Sabbah just shows you've never read the fucking story. The argument is completely incoherent.
>>
>>140971483

Hashashin is the origin of the word assassin you fucking idiot. The catalyst for summoning Hassan is the word "assassin".

Not him but in a world where magic doesn't exist you can just choose one and say it can happen. Lee Harvey Oswald can now shoot through these barriers and you have to accept it.

I realize the impossibility of proving a negative, but that's why you shouldn't have made your stupid argument in the first place. There is absolutely no reason why Nasu can't give some random heroic spirit the power to break barriers.

I already gave him as an example previously.

>>140971933
And you have to prove that it's feasible for such a thing to exist. Regardless if it can or not, the vast majority of Assassins can't sneak into barriers that easily & thus magic barriers are the bane of an Assassin's effectiveness.

>There is absolutely no reason why Nasu can't give some random heroic spirit the power to break barriers.
And there's already reason why most Hassan Assassins can't bypass barriers so easily. Even if there exists one who can, there exists enough that don't which still makes barriers feasible as an Assassin detector.
>>
>>140972099

Pretty sure nobody in our history can do that so therefore mage barriers are an unstoppable force that nobody in history can break through and everyone should just use them since they don't exist here.

The problem about this is that it started based on the argument of magical barriers vs Assassins. The point of there existing an Assassin who can break barriers easily is negligible because the majority struggle with the defences a magus would have as an Assassin preventor. In other words, it's irrelevant if one person is capable in a scenario where we discuss the majority.

So that means the Assassin class is inherently shafted, since the power of a servant comes from the strength of their Mystery(?) and general knowledge of the summoned being in question, and since the best Assassins aren't known, their Mystery is low and they're therefore weaker.

>that means the Assassin class is inherently shafted
That's exactly it. As are Caster and Berserker.
Saber, Lancer, and Archer were intended to be used by the Tohsakas, Eienzberns, and Matous, so it was just a competition between them with some fodder to get warmed up on.
Rider is intended to be a back up in case someone outside of those families got one of the Knight classes before they could.

My argument that this ability to penetrate barriers is somewhat common or at least not super rare is based on the idea that if you were a legendary assassin in a world where magic exists then you'd probably learn a spell or use an item to help you do your job better. It makes sense that heroic assassins would have this ability and it's not an impossible feat. People have been arguing that there's no evidence that such assassins even exist and that only hassan can be selected for the assassin class but in the setting of this universe heros exists, there are supposed to be extremely talented people out there so other heroic assassin other than hassan are bound to exist.

not really only one has a chance of winning and that's the protags spirit since Nasu needs a happy ending =^)

Magic isn't exactly public knowledge in the Nasuverse anon. It isn't something everyone has.
>there are supposed to be extremely talented people out there so other heroic assassin other than hassan are bound to exist
The context being argued are the Hassan only Assassin ones & all be cause there can exist doesn't mean that there definitely is & that it's common.

What relevance is that?
>>
>>140973128
that just because many don't know about it there wouldn't be a group who did and specialized in countering it since it infests Fate universe
>>
>>140973182
Magical barriers don't specialize in countering Assassins. They're like a darn security camera or landmine.

Wasn't this known already? Since Shiki could kill part of the Gaia world egg, he'd obviously be able to kill a much less stable reality marble

Lancers are fucking bad ass. I'd love to see someone like Diomedes summoned.

That's probably why he's saving it for so long.

Either that, or he doesn't want to show Ilya getting torn to shreds 12 times in a row.

Maybe Herakles being topless has something to do with it.
