Archer of Blue vs Archer (F/SN)
Mellonpan CHECK!
A clash between men whose mindset is more similar than they would perhaps like to admit. As both sides have the capacity to manifest an almost overwhelming advantage under certain circumstances, it is a battle that is more decided by the wits of the two participants, rather than their actual strength as Servants. While the Archer (F/SN) may possess better overall combat versatility, the environmental advantage leveraged by Archer (Blue), under favorable conditions, is more significant. In the end, this fight would either be decided before the first shot is even fired… or boil down to two men swinging their weapons at each other and shouting melodramatically about their respective tragedies.
Berserker of Blue vs Rider (F/E)
Mellonpan CHECK!
A heart-to-heart fight between two honest people chasing after an ever-ephemeral dream. While the eyes of these two women might be ultimately gazing at a similar scenery, their demeanor and character could not differ more significantly. While Berserker would have the definite edge in close combat, Rider’s elusive nature and overwhelming ranged superiority would inevitably result in the escalation of the fight itself. A ridiculous anime-style fight where both sides would pull out a consecutive cascade of various powerups, leading to an incredible and mind-boggling climax. Though in the end, Berserker (Blue) would probably hold the overall edge in power... wait, wouldn’t that just end up giving Drake the protagonist modifier?!?
Rider of White vs Berserker (F/Z)
Mellonpan CHECK!
In a straight competition of martial might and skill, the maddened knight of the lake has an almost overwhelming advantage in most traditional avenues of combat. However, the longer the fight would last, the more the balance of battle would shift in favor of Rider. In addition, if it would come down to a clash of Noble Phantasms between the two sides, Rider would most assuredly come out ahead. Therefore, the three deciding factors in this fight would most likely be the extent to which Berserker could leverage Knight of Honor, the combat environment, and the immediate circumstances of the fight. That is if Berserkers Master didn’t end up dying of unfortunate prana exhaustion...
