    Indeed. I wonder what order Shiki will fight the Extra Servants, and if maybe an Apocrypha Servant might slip into the roster.

    I'm curious as to how many servants will actually be characterized.
    The war is so large that it can't not be populated be supermooks.

    Well, you only fight seven Servants, eight counting Saviour, so there's no need to characterize more than that, unless there are a few Servants Shiki will meet simply for the fun of it.

    MEH???

    Am I missing something?
    I thought there were hundreds of entries and over a hundred final spots.

    But they all fight in 1v1 duels, so there will only be seven servants to fight, or so I assumed. 128 competitors, starting off and each round the number is cut in half.

    On the first day of every week there is a list of the surviving combatants placed on the bulletin board on the second floor of the school. The board lists who fights who for that week, and at the end of that week they fight a 1v1 battle.

    It's basically a tournament.

    Each round the number is halved, you also fight a servant from each class. round 1 was against Rider, Francis Drake. This round chances are they are fighting extra!Archer

    Tohsaka Rin You are Rin. Cool and collected, you think logically about most situations. You strive for self-perfection, and rely on others only for your benefit. You may be cold toward most people, but you can be friendly when you try. Indeed, it could be said you enjoy helping others that you care for. Whatever the case, you tend to think logically and don't let emotions cloud your judgement.

    How do you team up in a 1v1 elimination tournament?

    It's very close to impossible to "team up" in EXTRA. The two combatants enter a sealed off arena that only they can enter. Spoiler ahead:

    Spoiler:
    At one point, your character, because of a unique condition, is able to actually Command Seal warp into the arena where Rani and Rin are fighting. Doing so, you can save one of the two, creating a loophole where they still live even though their Servant is dead. This is the only case of "teaming up."

    The rules in the Moon Cell are rather well enforced.

    Color me interested, especially since I just got my new copy of Fate/EXTRA today.

    Depends on which version you're buying.

    My collector's edition cost me $42 including tax.

    I went with the cheaper normal edition. I already beat Assassin, and trust me that guy is a pain so far. I used Saber/Nero and I managed to lose once in the elimination bout. It does not help that to use Nero's NP you have to wait four turns and can use it once, while this guy can practically spam his NP. I was lucky but I took a precaution the second time and used Thrice setting Sun first with heals every turn. Also Nero's NP is beautiful.

    *shakes head* I always need to stop and think - I hear "Nero," and my brain immediately goes to "Chaos," which is completely wrong.

    But yes, this whole setting does sound interesting. So, as before, I'm curious to see where this goes . . .

    Caesar technically means Number of the Beasts...

    Anyways Nero has a pretty good character design/personality imo.
