Top 25 Characters in Fate Grand Order 2023
As explained at mtglion.com, Fate/Grand Order is a popular gacha RPG mobile game that draws inspiration from the Fate/Stay Night Japanese visual novel. The game has got lots of amazing characters, and this article will look to list the top 25 characters in Fate Grand Order in 2023.
- Scathach-Skadi
As per mtglion.com, Scathach-Skadi is a great all-rounder to add to any team because of her focus on survivability and is perhaps the most competent support Caster. She works best teamed with other AOE Quick Servants, especially since her Quick boosts can make their NPs repetitive.
- Space Ishtar
Hailing from outer space, Space Ishtar is arguably one of the most straightforward Avengers in the game. She focuses on dishing out damage as often as possible, with a toolkit that allows her to boost her damage exponentially while also regaining her NP at a much faster rate.
- Arjuna (Alter, Berserker)
When Arjuna of Chaldea severed his links to the gods, he became an alternate self when compared to his Lostbelt iteration. Contrary to the original Arjuna, this iteration is one of the best Buster Servants in the game.
- Kama (Assassin)
Despite her charming appearance, Kama is one of the best Assassins in the game, especially following the Quick-Meta according to mtglion.com. Her Kama Sammohana (NP) and its single-target nature already cement her place as an Assassin, but the chance of stunning its target via Charm makes her more competent in boss fights.
- Super Orion (Archer)
This super-charged form of Orion comes to save the day in the Atlantis Lostbelt questline, reflecting the love Artemis has bestowed upon him. With his toolkit, Super Orion becomes a deadly card damage dealer.
- Jeanne D’Arc Alter
Jeanne D’Arc Alter is the corrupted version of France’s beloved saint who has abandoned her faith after being burned at the stake by the very people she tried to save. She is an asset for any Master, and possesses the single highest Attack stat in the game, a crown she has managed to retain despite the release of hundreds of new Servants.
- Sakata Kintoki
Sakata Kintoki is a very straightforward yet effective servant whose main playstyle can be summarized as smash and smash harder. Having a very high Attack and being a Berserker with an extremely strong NP charge skill in Animal Dialogue with a Buster Single Target Noble Phantasm and 50% Attack steroid for 1 turn makes him one of the best fast nukers in the game.
- Cú Chulainn Alter
Powered by bloodlust and desire for conquest as articulated at mtglion.com, Cú Chulainn switches into the Berserker class to become one of Chaldea’s deadliest damage dealers and is one of the best characters in the game.
- Tamamo no Mae
Tamamo no Mae is a Servant with a very specific and well-designed role – an Art team support who facilitates and elevates any Art team to a great level. Her combination of target Art buffs for 3 turns, teamwide heal and cooldown reduction, 3 Art cards with an Art NO, and boss gauge control make her an excellent asset.
- Scathach
Scathach is often one of the first names to be considered when taking on tough challenge quests thanks to her amazing burst on her Noble Phantasm, guaranteed stun, an on-demand dodge, and great coverage with God Slayer as covered at mtglion.com. Given proper support, she can also be a strong critical damage dealer.
- Jack the Ripper
Jack the Ripper is exceptionally the best Assassin-class Servant in the game. At the very least, she is an expert at gaining tons of Critical stars and dealing massive critical damage against enemies. Her Noble Phantasm pretty much ignores the target’s defense buffs and increases damage against female enemies.
- Artoria (Altria) Pendragon
Artoria, otherwise known as Saber is one of the most popular characters in Fate/Grand Order. Whether you like a lightsaber-wielding assassin, a bikini-clad motorcycling rider, or a bunny-eared bodacious ruler, there is an Artoria for every player.
- Ishtar
As captured at mtglion.com, Ishtar is a pseudo-servant that is manifested into the body of Rin Tohsaka. Given that Rin Tohsaka is one of the most popular and fan-favorite characters of all time in the Fate Universe, which is why she is also so popular.
- Zhuge Liang (El-Melloi II)
Until Merlin becomes available on the NA servers, Zhuge Liang is pretty much everyone’s ideal Caster-class Servant to go to. His skills can help boost his allies’ stats while simultaneously helping to build up NP points.
- Merlin (Caster)
Next up is what many consider to be their favorite Fate/Grand Order character. Fate/Grand Order moves away from the traditional “wise old man” depiction of Merlin to instead present a youthful, fair-faced trickster with an arsenal of support skills up his billowing white sleeves, hence why he is so popular.
- Gilgamesh
Gilgamesh is a strong independent servant with high damage output and generally good stats across the board. He has no obvious weakness and his NP modifier against Servants makes him immensely valuable for any event as Servants account for a lot of fights in the game.
- Minamoto-no-Raikou
Fate/Grand Order reimagine Japan’s Minamoto-no-Raikou as a bold, brash, busty Berserker as described at mtglion.com. Loving and kind, Raikou is a mother figure to all – except Oni, the demonic beings she declares her mortal enemies.
- Miyamoto Musashi
Musashi’s ability to increase the hit count on her face cards makes her able to efficiently charge her NP in her Saber form, or three-turn loop in her Berserker form. On top of that, her bubbly and caring nature adds to her charm.
- Ushiwakamaru
Ushiwakamaru left such a lasting impact on players after the Babylonia anime was released as discussed at mtglion.com. In Fate/Grand Order, she is a top-rated three-star servant who fans have learned to love from the start.
- Nero Claudius
Nero Claudius’ confident bravado is just endearing enough to not come across as arrogance. While she is a fairly standard Saber with nothing to write home about in her base form, her Caster form is capable of huge damage all while sporting a very fashionable swimsuit.
- Leonardo Da Vinci
Da Vinci is Chaldea’s main source of information, and your guide to the many worlds you will explore throughout FGO. She is confident in her genius and isn’t afraid to show it. She can be found jokingly messing around with Romani when not feeding you intel.
- Francis Drake
As a Rider-class Servant, Francis Drake is as versatile as they come. Not only is she already efficient at dropping Critical stars at a high rate, but her AOE Noble Phantasm is especially effective at dealing heavy damage and simultaneously gaining Critical stars as well.
- Arash
While personable Persian bowman Arash boasts only a single star, his unique gameplay style is practically unequaled in usefulness. His rain of arrows, “Lone Meteor Stella”, effortlessly eliminates entire waves of even the most irritating enemies.
- Okita Souji
As a Quick-oriented NP-spamming star-spewing machine, Okita exemplifies all the strong points of the card type’s advantages as outlined at mtglion.com. With her superb base NP gain, simple but self-fulfilling skill set, and straightforward NP, Okita’s game plan is to pull off the strongest NP Brave chain she can manage, shower herself in stars, then do it all over again.
- Mash Kyrielight
Mash Kyrielight is the very first Servant to dedicate her shield to Chaldea’s cause. A rare fusion between a human scientist and an unidentified Servant, Mash possesses her own unique class, “Shielder”. The fact that she is immediately available to all players upon beginning the game, and powers up further during key plot moments, is why many are so fond of her.
