    Ostensibly, most, if not all, Servants can dunk on modern mortals.

    Some statistics.

    Removing Alters, alternate classes, lily versions, alternate ages and so on there are 190 different playable Servants in FGO.
    Of these Servants:
    70 were already present in other works,
    12 are completely original characters (like EMIYA, Miyu or BB),
    10 are pseudo-servants,
    6 are gestalts of different heroic spirits (like Sitonai, Passionlip or Hessian Lobo),
    1 is a demi servant.

    Taking way gestalt characters and completely original Servants, there are:
    52 Servants born BCE,
    41 Servants born between years 1 and 1000,
    23 Servants born between years 1000 and 1500,
    33 Servants born between years 1500 and 1800,
    19 Servants born after 1800.

    I'm unable to date Nursery Rhyme, Kiyohime and Osakabe-hime, help.

    Is it me or are the Servant profiles getting a bit more arbitrarily different from each other?
    NPs always differed a bit, but I suppose it's the skill section I'm getting at.
    Notice a fair few skills that basically do the same thing or are just slightly renamed or altered to be called a variant despite not much real elaboration on how they're different.
    I suppose it might be because of FGO as having repeating flavour text isn't what most people want for a gacha thing.

    The original game had very general skill such as "Argon coin", "Mystic Eyes" and "Tsubame Gaeshi",

    Sorry for the マジレス but

    Nursery technically never "existed" in any era. I take her as as much of an exception to all rules as Pale Rider.

    Kiyohime first met Anchin on the summer of 928. FGO goes with the version that she met him on her early teens, so that put her birth between 913 and 917.

    Now Osakabe was stated to be a fox who lived 300 years, but with no date to when she disappeared, that doesn't mean much. We know she met Musashi irl but with Musashi being a time drifter, that doesn't necessarily mean she was still existing during Man Musashi's timeframe. Her main source is listed in her mats as the Zoku Hyakki, which implies she was still alive Toriyama published that (1779). That puts a very loose lower limit for her birth at 1479, with an even looser upper limit at 1717 based on the notion that she had already disappeared before she was summoned in 2017.

    Ok, so

    52 Servants born BCE,
    42 Servants born between years 1 and 1000,
    23 Servants born between years 1000 and 1500,
    34 Servants born between years 1500 and 1800,
    19 Servants born after 1800.

    Been a while since I played London, but weren't Babbage, Nursery Rhyme, Zouken himself and a bunch of minions such as sentient grimoires and automata a part of that attack?

    Yeah and as was said, it was retconned later that the actual top tiers weren't even in the Clock Tower at that time.

    Nursery Rhyme doesn't have a "real" form and Kiyohime is insane (and technically underage by modern standards) , go for the reliable hikikomori yokai.

    Hypnosis is pretty basic but you also have to remember people don’t want to hypnotize others unless they really have to because like curses you end up messing with yourself in the same way you mess with people by using that kind of magic.

    As much as Reddit is dumb about mages and the Clocktower maybe something like magic cops vs magic mafia could be fun in America, or in Italy.

    Where was that said? I don't remember it, at least, and Rin certainly didn't have a problem with it when taking Shirou out in that early bad end.
    Though it doesn't really change anything either way. Like I said, the Clock Tower is established enough that they likely don't need to use any magic to make someone disappear.

    Same deal as curses more generally. It seems to be worded more for stuff like changing people's views on things, but it might apply to memory modification?

    Berserkerlot should have had an Aegislash, Hinako should have had a Froslass, and Altera should have been partnered with Regigigas.

    Lancelot and Gengar go together pretty well with For Someone's Glory and Gengar being the Shadow Pokemon. Hinako and Houndoom have the same color scheme, and Altera and Relicanth are very old. Then again, Deoxys would have been better.
