MD 33's Vote: "Battle of Complicated Anime Warriors!"

''Apologies if the vote's not too "clear". I don't know both of these warriors...''

Main Power: Hidden Weapons vs Tracing

I literally have no knowledge of these two fighters, but looking from the data (for the main power), I'm gonna give this one to Shirou Emiya. The many weapons Kei has could pose a real threat to Shirou. However, the weapons themselves can hamper down Kei's movement, even if he still can run really fast. Shirou's Traced objects can break during the battle, or more specifically during its use. But the Reinforcement Magic can compensate for that. Not just that, the hidden weapons are all unspecialized, such as having customized grips, etc, as said above. With Tracing, Shirou's attacks are more focused/concentrated than Kei. Having many weapons is a good thing. Bad thing is, if there are too many weapons, you could be overwhelmed by it.

Oh and for a record... I don't know what "Noble Phantasms" are so, care to explain?

Support Power: Killing Impulse vs Reinforcement Magic

The Killing Impulse allows Kei to kill everything proficiently. But what good would it do if you yourself don't want to kill anyone? I'm giving this one to Shirou once again. The Killing Impulse is a decently powerful power that allows Kei to give Shirou hell of a beating, even if it's non-lethal, but Shirou's Reinforcement Magic is more versatile, imo. Grab/Trace an object, then reinforce it. In case of Tracing an object, just use Reinforcement to strengthen it. Even if it might strengthen the weapons only slightly, at least it's enough to harm Kei. The Killing Impulse is mighty, but less practical (imo).

Trump Card: Super Speed vs Unlimited Blade Works

This one goes to Kei Munakata. As much as how the Blade Works can provide Kei with "better" weapons to be used, or simply rain down blades on Kei (the picture's like the aftermath of a blade rain...), Kei is still fast enough to dodge Shirou's attacks. Also, if half of his hidden weapons are discarded, Kei is then nearly untouchable by Shirou. He could simply sidestep all the Reinforced weapons Shirou has, then deliver the heavy blow to him. The Blade Works also require a helluva lot of mana to be performed, so that's a disadvantage for him. Basically, Kei's super speed is more efficient and effective than the Blade Works.

WINNER: Kei Munakata

Even if I gave most of the edges to Shirou, Kei's speed is what attracts me into leading him down the path of victory. His weapons may not be as "concentrated" as Shirou's, but his super speed literally dominates Shirou. His Killing Impulse is restrained by his unwillingness to kill, but that doesn't mean he can't combine it with his speed to deliver attacks to Shirou. The Blade Works, Reinforcement, and Tracing. Those things are good, but what use do they have if Shirou can't even train his eyes on Kei? Overall, Kei wins this due to his speed.
