      I'd be wary of using her Bond CE. The NP damage buff is only 10% higher than Divine 3-Legged Race's, which doesn't really justify it being locked to 100 attack. By comparison, 3-Legged Race goes between 500 and 2k attack.

    She seems like a rare case in which her first append skill (buffing the extra card) seems a better option over the NP starting charge as she is entirely focused in solo fights.

    • @AngelofKaos
      @AngelofKaos Před rokem +21

      Extra attack card append is a MUST for every single solo servant, you get a lot more mileage from it than starting charge over the course of a fight, even if early np's are sometimes nice.
      The starting charge is only useful for pure support servants or DPS's that have horrid np gain and only work on teams tbh.

      iirc, Kagokiyo's loose definition of "Genji" is "those who prosper". ...which is incredibly difficult to code for, so the damage bonus in game only applies to the Minamoto and their servants/descendants.
      Zeus, though?

    "Using Kagekiyo for curse memes is a huge waste".
    Little does he know, that by using Azamaru’s Mist and having the Chaldea Pathfinder Mystic Code (Which you definitely could use, considering the Quick/NP and Party-Wide Crit steroids), you can get Van Gogh from 0-100% in a single turn, and then cleanse all of Gogh’s curses, assuming you have 3 Servants on the field.
    Through this, you could, funnily enough, use Kagekiyo as Gong Fodder for a Gogh solo (Because Kagekiyo doesn't have Existence Outside the Domain, it is probably better to have Gogh as the soloing servant, but if you wanna make Kagekiyo do it instead, you totally can, you’d just have to Gong twice because of Gogh’s Guts).

    One thing that's been bugging me about Kagekiyo/Yoshitsune.....
    WAS Yoshitsune female in the Fate universe? Or was she born female like Artoria?
    Yoshitsune's two main appearences give references to both his wife and his biological son. So, did Kiishi Hogan make Shana-oh male using tengu magecraft? That would explain why Taira appeared when trying to turn a young girl Ushiwakamaru into an adult. Becoming a male and having wife and heir was for Yoritomo. A female Yoshitsune would represent rejection of the Genji.

    • @nihilvox
      @nihilvox Před rokem

      Personally I kinda regard Fate-verse Yoshitsune's wife and mistress as being her only two female friends, and Benkei as the father of their children (or the wife's, at least).
      As for everything else... Apparently children were considered genderless until they were seven or eight. Combine that with Ushiwaka's... Entire personality... and it's believable (not historically, but in the bounds of fiction, sure) that she decided, "Okay, need to avenge my dad. That's men's work. Which means I need a capping ceremony, so I can legally be a man."
      And from there we'll assume that Yoritomo and Co pushed hard for Yoshitsune to be recorded in history as a man - It would be awfully embarrassing for the surviving Taira AND the Kamakura Shogunate to have been put to so much trouble by a weird girl, let alone for her to have at one point had the emperor's favor. So obviously Yoshitsune was really just a pretty man.

      @@nihilvox Those are very good observations.
      Fate Ushiwakamaru was definitely born a female, that's obvious, but yes, Ushiwakamaru had a similar mindset as Artoria, in the quests to be a powerful warrior. Unlike Tomoe Gozen and Qin Liangyu in China, Ushiwakamaru never even considered the implications of being born female. She knew she was female, but it mattered little to her, so she became the legendary Ushiwakamaru, the fabeled Shanna-oh, and the legendary General Yoshitsune.
      She was born kind of a sword wielding psychopath, having an absolutely incredible body count with the sword and other samurai weapons for just one person.
      But, by the point of being adult Yoshitsune, it was obvious to her retainers, and her envious brother, that everyone needed to consider her a male.
      But then when Yoshitsune's mind becomes awake during Hyien-Kyo, she mentions her SON she had with a WOMAN....
      ...Chitosemaru.
      So how did Fate Ushiwakamaru have a son with one of his wives/concubines? Yoshitsune's brother even knew that he existed, because he was on the list of Yoshitsune's family to be targeted.
      And guess what?
      In some of the legends, Chitosemaru survived the massacre as he was her (his?) biological son, and there was a retainer that secretly carried him to a far away to monastary to live.
      That retainer was none other then Hitachibou, FGO's favorite false Benkei.
      At least in some legends.
      But yeah, Fate Yoshitsune mentioning having a non-adopted, biological son with a woman, is a mystery.

    Fino: There is a big opportunity-cost dilemma if you want to summon Kagekiyo
    Me: *Cost means nothing for my wife.*

    "Gender is listed as unknown... but i will refer to her as she." If only there was a gender neutral pronoun a person could use... Its super frustrating that we get these cool nonbinary characters and people gender them anyway.
