Miyamoto Iori: The Best Free Saber

[@CosmicDriver722]

In regards to Iori’s shack, it’s mentioned in SR that the Ogasawara clan (who adopted his little sister Kaya after Musashi’s death) have an open offer for Iori to be a bodyguard, but he doesn’t want to take it until he’s mastered Musashi’s teachings. That seems to be one of the many small divergences he took to his historical self.

[@Awoken0]

Even considering gacha Sabers he's one of the best. He truly has the "Nah, I'd win" energy.

[@kaseyatakahashi9753]

he'd actually win tho

[@Finalslashes]

@@kaseyatakahashi9753Fr like double subamie is crazy + void style it gets crazy

[@ShiraFuyu2022]

Let it be known that this man -As Human survived a confrontation against Heian's Finest -Put up a good match against The Strongest Japanese Servant anyone can summon normally -Won against Musashi who as a Human survived the 7 Heroic Swordsman -Added to that, the Man combined the best of both worlds of Sasaki's Technique and Musashi's Style If Manaka doesn't exist, he'd undoubtedly be the Strongest Master to date in a straight up fights

[@owo4288]

Can he fight Sieg in his dragon form which is Fafnir or not? Is Fafnir Sieg as strong as OG Fafnir?

[@ShiraFuyu2022]

​@@owo4288End of Series Sieg, no. He can win or even put up a good fights against a Number of Servants only if its Skills only. The moment they start using Nukes and what not, he's screwed

[@ThermalVoid]

​@@ShiraFuyu2022 What about Seiba? Kojiro did give her a lot of difficulties so I would guess Iori could fight her? Maybe? 🤔

[@ShiraFuyu2022]

@@ThermalVoid Only if she decided to not nuke the entire place up, he has a shot. That's pretty much how it goes with Sasaki as well. Artoria never used anything but her Instinct

[@ThermalVoid]

@@ShiraFuyu2022 I see, makes sense when we think like this. 🤔 Thank you. 👍

[@gazerbeyond6371]

[Spoilers] In retrospect after learning about Iori's nature, it's kinda funny how the Gil ending is the most fitting for him

[@seizuakahoshi923]

Gil ending is the canon ending

[@Destiny87]

Hmm, Iori sure has changed a lot since summer in Vegas.

[@Oni_Evergarden]

Love love the way they included all the stances for him. Honestly will totally invest pretty heavily into him when he comes out on NA.

[@gee_kaz]

I think he has burn in his skills because he can cast fire spells in Samurai Remnant

[@barneypurple3435]

Which is Fate Samurai Remnant gameplay accurate relevant that it translates well in FGO.

[@crypto66]

His kit is modern Saberlot. They even have the exact same passives; the only things Saberlot has over him is 20% more crit damage and EAM's ridiculous absorption, which is mostly a novelty nowadays. I love that his 3rd append skill thematically makes him the best built for Saber "duels."

[@dakotadoyle7573]

So long story short on the history: Iori was a battle hungry warrior in an age of peace that had left that thinking behind

[@Iron_Prince]

the lore bit was really nice on this one! that bit of extra context helps me appreciate f/sr and similar events even more

[@lordtea]

1:46 already master G-man ultimate skill lmao 😅

[@dakotadoyle7573]

Iori's power makes sense when you consider that by the end of the Waxing Moon Ritual he was able to fight on par with actual Servants including his own

[@kubarunetwork7513]

Miyamoto Goku Asking everyone who is strong and fights them

[@ivanbluecool]

A2b2 buster. Good choice. And oh his servant is arts. Great choice. Once again arts and buster show they are great working together Quick;(outside in the rain)

[@LuminousOriens]

Quick also gets paired with Buster

[@ShotgunMcgee666]

That state of ronin being poor explains a lot about why Mugen and Jin are broke as hell in Samurai Champloo as well. I love history

[@kog_txt]

>golden sun ah yes, the illusion of choice: the game

[@AdeptRougeOfHorus]

I love how business Fino can call us nerds and it doesn't sound like an insult.

[@raphaelpulmano2212]

Enough time has passed. Iori > Musashi (Disclaimer: This is a Kagurabachi meme reference)

[@shotasatellite796]

He is HIM. Iori the GOAT.

[@sadang870]

I am hopeless Bedivere simp, but I have to accept Iori supressed him as buster ST saber. his kit is that nice. maybe best welfare candidate (aside Ridertoki or Kuro)

[@kanicunny]

He will 1v1 ORT and win

[@RyanVonAegir]

"Naw I'd-" *Void Stance sword spam*

[@lordtea]

For some reason His kit is too op for welfare but I won't complain about it 😂

[@uteriel282]

this is the bare minimum nowdays to be useful as a new servant.

[@lordtea]

@@uteriel282 well this is more make sense than giving super battery buff to hyde 😅

[@freshlymemed5680]

Literally needed to even be remotely usable. Powercreep hit welfares the hardest.

[@Ayumu31]

so even tho nobu talks shit bout monkey, he really tried to fullfill nobu's dream till the end? damn we really need toyotomi monkey hideyoshi and also we need some tokugawa servants as well right?

[@rururu432]

Step aside Saber Hokusai, its 2024

[@FBread-xj8qk]

Are you the strongest Saber because you're Miyamoto Iori or are you Miyamoto Iori because you're the strongest Saber stfu nah I'd win Swallow Reversal ORT solo no Mystic Code no SQ revival no CE because with Gil's treasures he summons Tamamo Aria who will never be a servant in Fate Grand Order I'll revive Quick Meta with Yui my beloved

[@ivanbluecool]

Cheated on musashi with kojurou. Guess that hair is as beautiful as the ha cast said it was. Guess even a wraith can find love. (this joke is a multi layered joke so if you miss it don't worry about it)

[@AoiLucine]

Dang, his skills are really nice and even...

[@Koma4560]

I’m coming back to fgo after ages, he isn’t globally available yet right?

[@Finotaisen]

Just JP for now.

[@akowkakaoakaowkaoakoaoa]

the game has a global release yet we NA folks still have to wait for 2 years him smh 🙄

[@arcuslux516]

Miyamoto "Nah, I'd Win" Iori

[@tomefilho3902]

Could he beat ORT?

[@FriendlyNeighborhoodSayori]

Maybe this year will finally be the year they buff one of Rama's skills.......... ........right?

[@Thesssandwich]

Swag

[@beamknight87]

Iori's kit is so bloated he actually looks like a 5* and not a welfare unit. Definitely one of the best they have released in a very long time. As for the time period in which Mr. Psycho lived, well, that was the actual beginning of the end of the samurai classes. The iron fist with which the Tokugawa dominated for almost 300 years meant that most of those guys were just overglorified parasites with nothing to do. Hell, there are actual accounts of how the heirs of these families by the mid of the 18th century had forgotten how to put on the armors of their ancestors (yeah, those badass looking armors that you all know about, in which they are sitting on top of a chair sporting a demon mask? Welp, seems the original owners did not leave the manual instructions with them) for when the rare battle ocassionally sprouted. That is also a huge reason why the Shinsengumi is so romanticized, because it was a corps that (seemingly) tried to revive the fighting spirit associated with the old samaurais, even if they were just a bunch of thugs.

[@DarthAlphaTheGreat]

He is a 4 star. But that’s fake. For anyone who played FateSR knows he is actually 8 star.

[@PsuNotPsu]

He gives me Copeium for missing on welfares sabers

[@Stellarheim]

i have almost forgot that they made this abomination of a game.
