Well, to be fair, fights read in novels will always feel longer than they actually would be if depicted in real life. On top of that, Kuzuki is brutally efficient and this battle showed that. The battle was basically meant to very rudely disabuse Saber of the notion that humans can't fight on the same level as Servants.

Fate/stay night 10 - The Fifth Contractor
I could say right now that regardless if the Saber vs. Kuzuki match was only brief, yet it was one of the many spectacular that UBW has offered until now.
The fight was one of many best, yet I can hardly qualify it as spectacular due to the same brief duration in which it elapsed. On the other hand, Shiro projecting Archers' blades was not only something unexpected to happen, but it wove perfectly and consistently with the climax and denouement of the match against Kuzuki; simply, the manifestation of those blades was like the culmination of a do or die moment for Shiro. For the following I'm going to post is not in defense of Kuzuki, since pretty much he looks like the kind of character that once comes and exits the stage, then he's quickly forgotten by the audience. I haven't that knowledge on profiling, but Kuzuki likely turned psycho either in his childhood or youth due to many years of abuse and neglect. Hence, it makes perfect sense that as a former killer couldn't care less about strangers, whom bear no meaning or responsibility to him and viceversa, getting caught in the crossfire or becoming victims for the War of the Holy Grail. I believe I also got the gist that Kuzuki also meant that that he, himself, is not going to kill anybody personally, so as long as that somebody poses no threat or jeopardy to his life. Secondly, I would be judging like Shiro assuming that Caster truly brainwashed Kuzuki, however, from time to time Caster let out a few expressions of concern for Kuzuki's safety. Then, it makes me to rethink that the only person across all Fuyuki that Caster actually cares about is Kuzuki, and possibly holds a few feelings for him. Whether Kuzuki reciprocates Casters' feelings or not that's another story. Thirdly, I can now disclose that Kuzuki was the culprit whom done Rider back two episodes ago. But, I'm also of the opinion like Rin that he managed that feat due to him having the element of surprise, as well as being strengthened by Caster's magic; second proof of that statement was when Kuzuki subdue Saber into a pretty bad shape, if only temporarily. I mean Rin and Shiro neither saw it coming at Kuzuki being the exception to the type of Master that battles on the front lines over offering rear support, but 1) with Kuzuki being a non-mage, and 2) Caster, whom is a mage on her own, being his servant, then it makes for both of them a dreaded, yet suitable combination.
