Wait, does Magic Resistance apply against Maria the Ripper? Because it's a curse, but it just takes the form of physical damage...

But why go for Saber? MR would apply, but I can't fathom targeting the Servant. There's also a question of whether MR applies to a curse-based NP at its actual rank or its effective rank as magecraft... Maria would be... what, A+++ or something as a normal spell?

[@Blackstripe] And here I was, thinking Rider would care about his Master having a pretty dismal fate. :P
