[quote=@Flamelord] This....actually proves my point. Besides Rin, who spent years storing up Prana to do this sort of thing... Emiya = Hax magic in the form of near perfect replication of Noble Phantasms Kuzuki = Special ability as a result from spending his life training in super secret assassin school. Also, getting buffed to like twelves times standard human by Medea Bazett = Has Fragarach, which reverses the flow of time so it always kills the enemy before their most powerful strike. Though still a skilled mage otherwise. Kirei = Incredible talented in a lot of areas, though not to the point of mastery, and has hax magic in the form of Command Seals So, as I said. Generally, the Masters that have the best chance against Servants have some sort of overpowered magic, or special ability. [/quote] Your implying Heracles is the standard servant, which is just lol. Ilya even says there should only be one or two spirits above him. The fact that Rin only needs 2 or 3 jewels to kill Heracles shows that weaker servants suffer the same fate. Hell Heracles could block those A ranked ice spears since his STR is a retarded high A+, which is double the numerical value of an A ranked attack. Medea and her reinforcement was never explicitly stated to buff stats, though it did give Kuzuki the capacity to interact with spiritual beings. Bazett has age of Gods runes and beat Gilgamesh without fraga by tanking gate of babylon with resurrection runes btw.
