Archer vs Saber
At the end of this video, Saber uses her Grail Move to defeat Archer. Just prior to the activation, when the player gave the command to "release" the Magic Circuit, the BGM suddenly changed. Does anyone recognize which music is it? |

Nice trailer. Were Bazett and Dark Saber selectable in the arcade or they'll be only in the PS2 (was PS2, wasn't it?) version?
Also, it seems like it's possible or is it just my impression that both fighters can use their noble phantasms at the same time? At the end, Lancer uses Gae Bolg and Bazett uses Fragarach, and... they don't show what happens but seems interesting |

Yeah. But my point was if, in the game, it was possible to simultaneously use both noble phantasms. From what I've seen so far in youtube, noble phantasms (and probably many special attacks) attack animation give little chance, if not any at all, to counter them. I guess you'll have to be REALLY fast to activate your noble phantasm before been hit by Excalibur or any other.

Nah, you just have to activate your noble phantasm during your opponent animation. Check a few pages before this and there's a video where Archer was charging at Saber, then she uses Excallibur, and then suddenly Archer pull out a Rho Aias to protect him.

Lol, Gilgamesh.
http://www.nicovideo.jp/watch/sm4878110 Almost infinites? One at 0:47 [102 hit combo], which Shirou has to combo break out of, and another at 3:08, which he finishes with his GoB special for almost 7k damage [106 hits]. |

There's a vid showing Archer ending his combo with UBW, 10k damage.

But that's a Grail move. I saw a Saber one with her ending a combo with Excalibur.
Edit: I checked the video. It was only a 6.4k combo. Excalibur remix is awesome though. http://www.nicovideo.jp/watch/sm4878669 Luvia, 8k-9k damage looping combo. It was hard to read, since it was Youtube quality. I think there was a 9k+ combo as well, where she ended with her Gandr special [I think it's Gandr, but I haven't played F/HA]. http://www.nicovideo.jp/watch/sm4927664 I really hope these are fixed for the PS2 release. |

Well, I just used "Grail move" as a term for his ultimate attack. Archer doesn't have a Grail move, but UBW is his ultimate. It does 4000 damage, like all the other characters' Grail moves.
Edit: Another one? Rin this time, and it's a 96-hit combo. http://www.nicovideo.jp/watch/sm4928280 Even seeing this, I still think Rin and Shirou work too hard to get a good amount of damage, even though Shirou works harder. Last edited by OceanBlue; 2008-10-14 at 19:30. |

Archer using Unlimited Blade Works is cool and how the bgm changes to an Emiya Remix, so far all the videos I've seen with a good Archer, its more worth it not to use Unlimited Blade Works and just use Caladbolg II instead.

And what makes you think UBW isn't blockable? As far as I've seen, I've never seen someone use an ultimate move without comboing into it first, so I'm not going to say it's blockable, but I'm not going to say it's unblockable.
What UBW is good for is metagames and the extra attacks, since, as far as I remember, having UBW available allows Archer to sword rain like Gilgamesh and having the extra damage option is almost nice too. Plus, if you have the extra bars, it'd be a waste to save them. Instead, use Caladbolg 2 and UBW, since the combos I've seen with Caladbolg 2 usually use that as a combo finisher. Does Archer have any other specials than Rho Aias, Overedge, Caladbolg 2, and UBW? Since I just realized that he might be at a disadvantage to other characters who can combo into specials and continue the combo afterwards. Right, Lancer? |
