Story
Real name: Artoria Pendragon. A knight with braided blonde hair, shining blue and silver armor, and a somewhat cold attitude. She is well-known from the legends of King Arthur, wielder of the holy sword Excalibur who founded the Knights of the Round Table. Somehow, she has appeared in this world without the use of a summoning ritual. She now searches Souya for answers to this mystery.
Gameplay
Saber is a rushdown character centered around strike/throw mix-up and mobility-based whiff-punish game.
The original "Saberface" from Type-Moon's older work Fate/stay Night crossed over to Type Lumina for some reason, confounding both herself and the opponent. She sports great normal attacks for close to mid range both on the ground and in the air, but have no long range tools whatsoever. Instead, she relies on Elfin Dance (214X) dashes/backdashes to punish slow or whiffed moves, before blending the opponent with First Air (236X) rekka series, Wing Air (623X) multi-hit DP and Cross Air (236X) aerial sword dive. Smart usage of Moon resources allows Saber to seamlessly play strike/stagger and ground/air mix-up between her special moves, leaving opponent confused.
Outside of her sword range however, Saber only has universal mechanics and her Avalon (214BC) parry that requires meter as her defensive option. Her easy mix-up tools being gated behind 236X means Saber must commit to risky strike/stagger/throw offense to get anything done.
All of these make Saber a character for intermediate-level player at least despite her simple looks. But once you gain experience and learned to make good reads on opponent's defense habit, this gender-bend king will leave your foe stupefied.

Mana Burst
During the duration of Heat/Blood Heat, Excalibur is revealed from Saber's invisible winds, and all of Saber's normals involving the use of Excalibur gain Chip Damage properties. This provides her another threat during the already powerful heat state alongside her other powerful metered options

Saber performs a quick defensive sword poke
- A less committal low poke than 2C due to its lower startup and recovery
- Slightly taller hitbox makes it a bit more forgiving in juggles and for catching fuzzy jump over 2A and 2C.
