Stats[]
I know there's nothing to be done about it, but I still feel a need to ask: Am I the only one who thinks that Leonidas' stats, which are attached to someone who rose to King over a Culture that valued Strength and Perfection of Body over all else, rather bogus, in comparison to someone like Chevalier d'Eon, who's combat style focus more on Swiftness/Agility than Strength?

That's probably just someone getting too carried away with the "Saber = best at melee" logic, perhaps? Same goes for why mythical guys with canonically superhuman stregth to lift up friggin islands like Cu Chulainn and Siegfried only got B in STR.
I kinda find it more jarring that Caster Cu Chulainn has E in STR, considering he's still the same guy with the same muscles as his melee fighter counterpart, even with the class change physical stats downgrade, it's hard to imagine he'd be weaker at a fistfight than someone like Mary friggin Antoinette.

So wait, the Artists not only drew the Servants, but statted them too? Zahadrin (talk) 04:22, August 3, 2015 (UTC)
Well apart from different artists, each characters are also conceptualized by different people who can either be professional writer, a TYPEMOON associate, or literally some random guy, just like in the classic cancelled Apocrypha.
So yeah, it's not like everyone sat down at once and talked how every Servants in this game should be statted, what NP they should have, or why Mozart can punch Cu Chulainn to death. Azurelorochi (talk) 04:57, August 3, 2015 (UTC)
I wouldn't go so far to say that. Mozart may have a higher strength stat, but Cu Chulainn has actual combat experience and could break Mozart over his knee. But I do agree it is ridiculous for him to be so low in Stats simply because he's Caster. Or maybe Protagonist sucks as a Master for some of the Servants. Zahadrin (talk) 05:08, August 3, 2015 (UTC)
