Rabbit's Reviews Summer Murasaki
NA Release Date: 08/2022
Introduction

Summer Murasaki is the star of the second summer banner, strength-wise. At NP1, she’s a more utility-slanted alternative to Ryouma and Mandricardo, and at NP2 or higher she’s generally superior (although the free pair still have some distinguishing features to keep them situationally relevant). She’s not an especially high-value pull overall given that the free units are good enough, generally speaking, but she’s still quite strong as a whole and is a great ST Caster-killer, especially at higher NP levels.

Conclusion

Murasaki is a prime example of how a simple and cohesive skillset can produce a highly effective Servant. Taken individually, Murasaki’s skills would be nice but not amazing, but altogether they turn Murasaki into a highly reliable Arts point who brings good damage and valuable utility to both fastplay and slowplay teams. Super solid Servant, even if she’s a little redundant with the free options.
