The possession of Mystic Eyes, abnormal eyes that can influence the World. Rider possesses the Mystic Eyes of Petrification, Cybele, which allow her to petrify anything within her line of sight, even those who aren't looking at her or those with their eyes closed, as they are still looking upon Rider with their mind's eyeKnightOfSunlight said:Uh, dude.
At any point she can take of her blindfold and he dies. She doesn't need line of sight. Picturing the eye in your mind does the trick too.
Or that he doesnt enter her line of vision with the blindfold off, which is entirely possible and fairly likely (as the blindfold is usually removed upward, which would paralyze Gordius bulls first)KnightOfSunlight said:And herein lies the issue. Iskandar winning requires Medusa to never take off her blindfold, which she will inevitably do.
In fact, it's in character for her to ope with that.
This XDLSirLancelotDuLacl said:Rider FRA
Bellerophon is only listed as being able to stop EM with Rho Aias's help, wouldn't that only make it slightly stronger, or am I misunderstanding?LSirLancelotDuLacl said:They are both A+ Anti Army NPs. The one used by normal Saber and Saber Alter is not one bit different. Saber Alter can just spam it. Don't try to use that as a point of comparison.
But while the bulls would already be comparable to the Pegasus, Bellerophon makes the Pegasus even stronger, upgrading all stats by one rank and multiplying it's defensive power already on the level of a dragon by several times. Pegasus by all means should have the advantage.
Understood, Pegasus should have a decent advantageLSirLancelotDuLacl said:As I said, Gordius Wheel and Pegasus are of the same rank. Both got completely destroyed without a chance to do anything by an Excali blast, there's no level of comparison there. Using the Rho Aias case just feels dishonest when weakened Saber completely destroyed Weakened Rider's Pegasus in Fate route.
But again, there's nothing really especial to the bulls, while the Pegasus has his defensive power really emphasized and Bellerophon multiplies it by several times. Beast to beast, the Pegasus should be a bit stronger and have much better defense than the bulls. This is without accounting for Cybele.
That's... not really worth anything. At no point do I remember the writing implying this lasted long. And I don't see Pegasus getting a boost bigger than Excalibur to go from instant wipe in fate to holding on whole seconds. That was just dramatic timing.KnightOfSunlight said:Pegasus wasn't able to overcome it, but it was able to at least hold out under it until Shirou gave it the push in the form of Rho Aias to help. Which makes it superior because Excalibur obliterated VE in a swipe.
This seems incredibly important in dealing with CybeleLSirLancelotDuLacl said:I don't see it making any sort of worthwhile difference, and luck isn't gonna interfere here. What role it could play would be utter speculation.
I was think more along the lines of "Iskandar summons Ionio and Medusa focuses on them while Iskandar get a solid shot off" or "Medusa doesn't start with Cybele and Iskandar blinds her in combat" or something like thatLSirLancelotDuLacl said:Until we see it working on a continuous effect, I am not gonna assume it can do much if anything.
