Since the start of the closed beta testing dedicated to version 3.4, Pathfinders have been able to enjoy various leaks related to the new legendary characters. Including, we were able to get acquainted with King Knight Saber.
Despite the fact that earlier Shiroha stated that Servants were removed from the CBT update due to a violation of the NDA (non-disclosure agreement), this information was refuted by an insider ubatcha, which has been sharing with the audience leaks about the mechanics of heroes, the composition of "Jumps" and other possible functionality for a long time, which is ultimately confirmed by official announcements.
The amount of inside information about the content of the major summer patch has been reduced, but certain things about future innovations are still gradually becoming known. For example, details about the collaboration event have been revealed Honkai: StarRail and Fate/SN, in which the Nameless from Star Express will take part in The First Holy Grail War.
The event mechanics will focus on 7 masters и 7 Heroic Spirits, who are prototypes of personalities from real history and/or legends. The concept, as you can see, completely repeats the plot motives embedded in the Fate universe, and the following "souls" will be available for detailed study:
- Saber - a strong and fast swordsman (Yunli, Faenon, March 7).
- Lancer - a spearman, distinguished by high accuracy and mobility (Dan Heng, Zele, Argenti).
- Archer - a shooter who is also skilled in close combat (Aventurine, Yanqing).
- Rider - a rider who can call upon a powerful beast for help (Jing Yuan, Kastoria, Topaz and possibly Aglaya).
- Kaster - a magician who feels ideal at long range (Great Hertha, Kafka, Hyacin).
- Assassin - a stealthy killer with sudden attacks (Acheron, Silver Wolf, Cipher).
- Berserk - a warrior who can enter a furious mode, where his strength increases significantly (Firefly, Jingliu, Clara).
В comments feel free to share your thoughts on the major event dedicated to collab with Fate/stay night.
Clara is a berserker in general))
There are no questions about the sabers.
It's not clear about the lancers, Zele walks around with a scythe. Which of her lancers is that? And I don't such images in Fate)
It's strange with Archers... It's as if Aventurine shouldn't have been put in any class)
Shooting coins and casino chips sounds stupid.
Feixiao is okay, at least she used a bow in the trailers.
I had fun with Yanchik, but here there is already a reference to Emiya. So it is forgivable.
What prevented Butkhil from inserting it?)
There's one funny thing about the Riders)
Jin Yuan can still be understood.
Kastoria fits into the class perfectly.
Well, Topaz on the pig is just an A+)
It’s not clear about Aglaya... well, let’s assume.
There is also something strange with the Casters.
Gerta fits the image perfectly.
Giatsina and Kafka seem to be controversial. Kafka with all his skills and history looks more like an assassin)
And according to their logic, Giatsina should be in the riders (since they put Topaz there).
Welt, Fuga, Fuska, Locha, Lebed would look much better in their classes)
The Devourer would look cool. He manipulates water and throws different types of weapons (or should he be an Archer then?))
It's better for assassins. But I expected to see Rappa.
Acheron can be understood.
Tsifer fits into his role well.
I wouldn't even add the Silver Wolf, but okay, let's say so.
It's even better with the berserkers. Although I expected to see Blade.
Clara with Svarog top. Perfect reference to Fate.
Jingliu seems to fit in well with the class.
Sveta can be understood in berserkers.
It's not clear why the outstanding swordsman Lofu didn't get into Cyber, but Yunka with her clumsy sleeper did. Kafka, who literally shoots a firearm, isn't a shooter? But a magician, what the hell )). Maybe I just don't understand the criteria for this classification and there is some kind of plan?
If you are talking about the swordsman Lofu (Yanqin), then his fighting style is a reference to one of the abilities of the archer in the feat, who created many swords and launched them at the enemy. No matter how stupid it sounds, it is as it is)
I don’t know about Yunka...we decided as we decided)
As for Kafka, I think she still belongs in the Assassins. They are not tied to a specific weapon and can fight with anything. And the periodic damage seems to hint that this is a weapon for cowards)
But for some reason she was ed as a caster (magician)
As for classification, gameplay in xsr is not taken into at all. For the most part, external similarity with the heroes of fate, or similar fighting styles, decide here. And based on these references, apparently, heroes are thrown into classes)
Kafka is not a rider. You are laughing. She is actually very similar to Duza.
Well, definitely not a caster. Complete misscast, both in appearance and abilities.
And where is Midey on Archer? Hello, mih&oyo.
Kafka is Kafka the writer poet
But Acheron is Ryder
Most riders had some summoner features or zones. Acheron is completely out of place here, IMHO. She is a swordswoman, she can only be used instead of a saber (dark, ideally).
I understand there won't be Ilya the Sorceress? =(
So Collab with Fate/Stay Night, not with Fate/Prism Illya
Yes, I am also a little disappointed, and there are still no leaks that Clara will receive Ilia's Skin in honor of Kolab, at least they could have done that, and they would have collected more money at the box office
Somehow Feixiao looks more like a berserker than everyone else there, and she doesn't look like an archer at all.
And in general, the archers were chosen strangely
No, she fits perfectly. She had a lot of references for Archer Emiya. She fights like him in close combat, but at the same time she is a very strong archer. Her shot in the story, which swept away a bunch of wolves at once, is very similar to Archer's shots. And there are already enough Berserkers. Clara with Svarog is a reference to Ilia with Hercules, crazy Jingliu and Sveta, who seems like a cutie charmer, but in a suit she is one of the most wanted, dangerous and furious killers.
Assassin silver wolf - haven't laughed so much in a long time. At the same time, Motse is not an assassin at all, but just a shy cutie. Clara berserker, well, that's lol, they brought the girl to tears - she caught berserk.
Clara thanks to Svarog. Obviously. Clara is one big reference to Illia.
everything is fine with the wolf too, she can secretly rewrite the ether code
Is Clara the berserker?)
"Oh, save me, Mister Svarog" 😉
Reference to Ilya from Fate.
Do you even know about Hate? Read about Illiya there.
So about Faith? Nope, I have no idea what's going on there) When I saw the info about the collab, I thought maybe I should watch something, I watched a 30-minute video about the fate chronology, where a guy like from a meme about a conspiracy theorist with tousled hair explained what and how, and I think he got confused)) As a result, it became clear that I wouldn't touch this even with a meter stick)
P.S. IMHO, 100% berserker is Mideychik, the rest is nonsense)
Mideychik is Gilgamesh, the artists clearly drew inspiration from Fate at the very beginning.
P.S. - watch Fate: Stay Night 2010, it's enough for lore, and there will be a collab based on it. All other fates are crap and not canon.
"Stay Night" turns out to be the coolest part, and "Inception" and its sequel "Infinite Blades", which (completely by chance) have a higher rating (worldart and the like to help), and a more logical and interesting plot, and more developed characters - this is "sh** and not canon"What a Spanish shame...
I'll throw in another thing: all the fates are made — ta-da! — based on games! And the ones specifically mentioned above are based on visual novels, and the plots of each series are routes that can be used to complete the same game. Well, yes, different games are used there, including online projects, in which there is no choice as a class. Therefore, if you really want "canons", you should first understand what it is in this case: there is such a thicket there that I personally am afraid to poke my nose into it and find out which of the routes is officially canonical. Because most likely it will turn out that none...
Fierce cap and not understanding Lore. Literally all fates are canon (officially), they just happen in different timelines.
Topaz is indeed a powerful beast.
I shake your hand, you are a man of high culture
