Best Rider-Class Servants in Fate/Grand Order

The Top Ten
Ozymandias Ozymandias is the Rider-class Servant of Shizuri Isemiā€Ž in the First Holy Grail War of Fate/Prototype: Fragments of Blue and Silver. He is one of the Servants of the Protagonist of the Grand Order conflicts of Fate/Grand Order.

Ozymandias is great in many aspects. As a damage dealer, his naturally high attack, a Buster single-target NP (that also inflicts DEF down and NP seal on the enemy), and his Rider star weight make him amazing.

But that's not all there is to him. He has Charisma and a unique skill that makes him a valuable support for all Servants with chance-based buffs, such as Imperial Privilege (Nero, Romulus, Cleopatra), Inherent Wisdom (Tesla, Da Vinci), or Hans's NP, making them much more reliable and consistent. Note that Hans can also provide Ozy with crit stars and a much-needed crit buff, and overall the synergy between the two is fantastic.

This skill also works with his own Imperial Privilege, meaning that he can safely boost his own attack up to 58% for three turns (if used together with Charisma). On top of that, it charges the whole party's NP gauge by 20%, making it useful even outside of its main niche.

To sum it up, not only is he the best Rider, but also one of the absolute best Servants in the game.

Sakata Kintoki (Rider)

Forget the Quick meta being dead in the future. His gameplay and stats are tremendously god-tier! And this is coming from a free Servant!

His QQABB card deck goes extremely well with his rock-hard strength and agility! Not to mention his Golden Drive Noble Phantasm is probably not only one of the best-animated Noble Phantasms in the game but also one of the most powerful, especially if you buff him up with his first skill to enhance his Quick card performance.

Artoria Pendragon (Santa Alter) was already a popular Rider-class free Servant, but Sakata Kintoki (Rider) blows her out of the water with his insane popularity and usage! Can't wait for the Onigashima event to come to the NA server this year!

If I'm lucky, I'd love to pair up Mama Raikou with him on my team lineup and see their special dialogue conversations in My Room.

Francis Drake
Saint Martha

Her NP is good for exterminating enemies (in my opinion). Her animation is good also.

Marie Antoinette

She's immortal, I think. And with her supporting NP, she builds the teams.

Artoria Pendragon (Santa Alter) Artoria Pendragon (also romanized as Arturia and Altria) is a Saber-class Servant from the Fate series. She is the true identity of Saber in the Japanese visual novel and anime series Fate/stay night by Type-Moon and its prequel, Fate/Zero, by Type-Moon and nitroplus.

Got her in the 2017 Christmas rerun, glad I saved my apples for then. Like her Saber counterpart, Miniskirt Seiba's AoE NP damage is pretty much an OP wave cleaner. The only difference is that she's really easy to get to NP 5 with the event.

She's extremely useful for farming, especially for the QP dailies. She also has a healing ability which heals a good deal of HP and increases the healed Servant's crit star gain by 30% at level 1. Combine this with her natural Rider increased crit star gain, Intuition, and Mana Burst, and you've got yourself a Buster crit Servant.

Overall, she's a fantastic welfare Servant, great for Buster crit teams and fantastic for farming. I feel pity for those who missed the Christmas event.

Ushiwakamaru
Mordred (Rider)

I don't have her, but I used her from my friend. She's good, her animation is good, and her NP is good at wiping enemies.

Anne Bonny & Mary Read
Quetzalcoatl

Best attack stat, nice NP damage/utility, and great active and passive skills. Need I say more?

Best broken English I've heard in the game.

When I use her against bosses I always win.

The Newcomers

The Contenders
Achilles

Spamming them Quick cards with this guy. Also, his first skill raises the efficiency of Quick cards as well, making him a Quick card OP Servant (although not as much as Okita or Jack).

Medusa

Mystic eyes and overall speed and her powers of magic are incredible. Also, the Pegasus factor.

Iskandar

Known throughout the world as Alexander the Great, the King of Conquerors is a powerhouse among kings. His Quick and Arts cards should be set as a priority for sweeping enemy hordes and building his NP gauge. His Lightning Conqueror skill is a must for maximizing his Buster performance.

His sprite shows him mounted on Bucephalus, and his Ionioi Hetaroi NP is EX-Rank, which means he deals absurd damage to all foes before him. Truly a magnificent king to have on your side and perhaps one of the strongest Riders in Fate!

Saint George

Great tank for a 2-star Rider-class Servant! To add to that, his Noble Phantasm is a two-in-one package since it not only grants his enemies the Dragon trait (which he deals bonus damage against), but also deals heavy damage after applying it!

I'm pretty glad to have summoned him and maxed out his NP level!

Ivan the Terrible

Need I say anything about this literal Ally god? I mean, how are we allowed to use him?

Sakamoto Ryoma

At this rate, if we can keep on getting two-in-one Servants, I'd honestly love to see a Romeo and Juliet Servant. And I know just the perfect non-TYPE-MOON characters to be the Pseudo-Servant hosts of Romeo and Juliet...

Astolfo

Medb

Dang it, Medb! I wanted someone like Waver, Cu Alter, or Ozymandias from the guaranteed SSR Servant gacha, but here I am spooked by none other than a Celtic witch in sheep's clothing. Sigh, I guess she'll be useful in the Prisma Causeway event...
