User blog comment:Elgb333/Saber (Fate/stay night) vs Jack Horner (Fables)/@comment-5931345-20150917132316

Being a fan of both Fate and Fable I'm casting my vote...

Offensive #1: Saber and Jack both have vastly different weapons at their disposal. Saber has no doubt, the better melee weapon. The excalibur grail-killing power greatly outmatches a simple cavalry saber. However, there's also Jack's magical firearms. Saber has shown that she's capable of dodging gunfight, however not quick enough to actually dodge them. And Jack has show to be an expert marksman. Still, Saber's been able to dodge a fucking Jetplane with vulcan guns so there's that. Edge: Saber

Offensive #2: Magic vs magic. For the majority, Fables magic isn't really that impressive compared to the shit you see Fate. Both Saber and Jack has some very useful magic at their disposal, which they can use for tons of purposes. The Invisible Air not only acts as a weapon's cloak, but also acts as a damage multiplier, range attack, and ability booster. However, for what I see Jack's magic has more useful and deadlier uses. His precognition powers allows him to control the battlefield, allowing him to predict Saber's next move. His reality bending pwoer gives him unlimited support and damage. And that dragon transformation, though not as tough, gives him a higher damage potential and air control (which, as seen with her fight against Caster, Gil and Berserker, is what Saber is weak from). And since his magic is area affected as opposed to actual active damage, Saber's magical resistance ain't gonna do shit. Oh and another thing, Jack's magic, unlike Saber's, is unlimited. Edge: Jack

Defensive #1: Again, vastly different set of abilties, but I can see which weapon is superior. Both weapons can be used for offensive and defensive moves. The Avalon is powerful, being able to repel a god-killing attack, however you can only use it almost only once in a battle. The Burlap Sack can do that, but even better. Jack can use it to absorb blows and disarm enemies, and once opened, no one can escape it. Even with Saber's godly speed, once the sack targets someone, then there's no stopping it. Christ, if even the omnipotent Death himself cannot escape it, then Saber probably won't either. Edge: Jack

Defensive #2: Like what I said above, Saber's armor is limited to her amount of energy, and it can even be damaged or destroyed. Jack's durability is nigh-invincible. And it's not limited to anything either. The only way to actually harm or kill Jack was for the "creators to be pissed and kill him off for real", but even in that he survives it. Edge: Jack

XFactors: I'm going to give this to jack. While Saber has the advantage in cqc and training, Jack's experience and intelligence outweighs them. I mean, who needs training, when you have over hundreds of years of experience fighting in so many battles. To top it all off, is Jack's crowning moments of achievements are greater than that of Saber. If Saber once defeated Gilgamesh, then Jack's beaten and defeated Gods, Devils and the Universe themselves for breakfast. Edge: Jack

Deadliest Warrior: Jack Horner (Fables). It's pretty simple. Jack has the better magical weapons at his disposal, while Saber's weapons are very limited. But what really wins him this battle is his invincibility. His magic is just more destructive and useful than Saber's very limited and rechargeable weapons. Even if Saber can destroy the Holy Grail, which isn't saying much since it was just an immobile cup, Jack on the other hand tanks whatever the Gods, Devils or the Universe itself gave him and still gets back up without any care but to get back at them. He has the better x-factors in a battle and can win more independantly. He doesn't need to transform into a dragon, his sack, precognition, reality bending and intelligence makes him the deadliest warrior.
