Build up a pile over summer and toss it at SaberFran? Get mostly rubbish until the end, when I get my hopes up over a gold Saber only to discover it's d'Eon. Months on and that one still stings. Win some google play funbucks in a work raffle and spend a couple ten-pulls* on the Lancer Artoria banner? Aw, here ya go.
There are some complex lessons about probability to be gleaned from all this, I'm sure. Still, I'll take the luck where I can get it
*also fifteen tickets, but I swear I've yet to hit anything better than duplicate 4* CEs with those
Further evidence of this: I got got. Pulled on the Merlin banner because of course I did. See gold orbs, good. See caster card, better. See... Scheherazade.

Parvati Banner announced. Yay! Also has some decent limited Craft Essences.
Also: Bedi, Amputation Nurse, and 4* David all get their NP Interludes. Cursed Arm gets his animation update. And we get the A Fragment of 2004 Mystic Code. You can now give anyone Buster Card Eternal Arms Mastery. 10000% Absorb at lvl10.
Also, looks like they're skipping the Camelot banner? Was afraid of that.
There's very few chances to get Lancelot, Tristan, and da'Vinci (and Bedivere for that matter) on rate up and this banner was one of the few. Lancelot is especially rare. Hopefully it's just moved. Was supposed to be before the Parvati stuff.
7 Tickets:
Seiba +1 (....NP5 now. She won't leave me alone.)
10 Rolls (Garbage until 5th Roll):
Sanzang Spook (NP3 buddha palm of justice)
Sakura Is Best Girl NP3
Smol Medusa Spook Wanting Sakura Headpats (NP4)
Caster Gil Spook (NP2)
d'Eon Spook (Rare Prisim, already NP5)
MLB At Wish's End 5* CE
Victor of the Moon CE (don't need another copy)
Heaven's Feel CE (don't need another copy)
Random 4* CE junk
Only got 3 copies of the 4* CE and I don't know if I'm going to roll any more yet to MLB that one. It's not bad, but I hit all my other goals.
Got dang it, I looked up Parvati's wiki page. Y'all, her skills are crazy broken. Used my tickets and meager quartz, and got Jack (NP2) and Herc (NP4), which is...well those are both good but not what I was going for.
Really don't need to throw cash at this dumb game.
(And vagrant_winds, I kind of know who she is, but have largely not engaged with the Fate franchise outside of this game.)
Dammit game, you can't tease me with another Medusa outfit and not deliver. Yes, I know it's not technically hers, but that's a weak point and you know it.
Buuuuut Bedivere's a wholesome lad and hits even better now, so I'll let it slide. I need to roll for more copies of him sometime, I feel like he's earned at least a try for more than NP1.

I'm holding out hope for the casual outfits from F/HA for all those servants.

Not one that Sakura would care all that much about. Although that would give us the 3x Emiya's with hints of a future one.
Sakura wouldn't particularly care about Emiya (Assassin), in fact I dunno if she ever actually met him in life, but it's 100% on-brand for Taiga since she had a massive teen crush on him back in the day.
I wasn't planning to roll for Parvati, but I was compelled to try after her quests. Wound up getting fairly lucky, and now I have NP2 Parvati (and a shiny Saber, I guess).
When I get another grail, I'll be really tempted to take her to 90. Then I won't have to roll for Ereshkigal... although I'll be locked in to rolling for Skadi down the road. Gacha is endless.

Oh hey, I finally got Salter. I don't actually have a user for her - NP3 Altera kind of beats her - but hey, I'll take her for the collection.

Is the lesson to glean.

At least we know now that Scheherazade will eventually get some buffs, but... still, there's no way to compare anyone to Merlin.
I pulled for him when he came out. Gold caster card, Tamamo.
It was like getting Ice Cream when you ordered a steak.
I wish that's the kind of spook I got.

Yeah, of all the banner horror stories, it feels like Merlin gets the lion's share of them. Probably because he just gets more people trying.
The trolling is on brand for him, if nothing else.

I don't think Liz understands how this is supposed to work.

Yup. An excellent welfare servant for anyone who doesn't have Meltlilith.
And honestly pretty great even if you do.
This is also the last of her halloween events isnt it?

And then next year you get to pick the other one and have two of her that you can field at once.
And yes, this year is both the last Liz Halloween (except for the rerun next year) and the last Nerofest.

Get Parvati.
All right, well now that she's here, I should spend all those XP cards from the event.
3x Super Successes.
Shouldn't these be going to a Sakura fanboy or something? Why me?
*edit*
Also, we have Emiya, Emiya Alter... who's the 3rd Emiya?

Rolled some tickets for Parvati. Got 3rd USO. Shoulda just waited.
