The first and probably only time I can do an episode of Fate/Deadliest Warrior using named warriors. At least until Fate adds a William the Conqueror, George Washington, and/or Sun Tzu. Although both of these Servants have already met on the field of battle, a combination of rules and loopholes have made this battle possible. Although Alexander was defeated in Deadliest Warrior and Iskandar was beaten by Altera Fate/EXTELLA for plot reasons, the King of Conquerors has the chance to redeem himself against the Scourge of God. Can he achieve victory this time? Or will Altera score her third victory and solidify her superiority over her Macedonian foe?
Iskandar[]
“ | A king must live a life more vivid than any other and be a figure for all to admire. The king is the one who collects the envy of all his heroes and stands as their guide. Therefore, the king is not alone.
— Iskandar

Iskandar, known historically as Alexander the Great, was a Greek general known for conquering the known world and never losing a battle. Ascending the throne at the age of 20, Alexander annexed the hostile Greek city-states to the south before moving to the east, clashing with the Persian Empire, led by Darius III. Victorious, Alexander, now going by Iskandar, lead his men into India and planned to go even further, wishing to set his eyes on Oceanus, the mythical ocean at the end of the world. But he would never meet this goal. His men were tired of the endless war and forced him to return home where they could live off the spoils of war. Upon reaching Babylon, Iskandar died and his empire shattered.
Should Iskandar gain the Holy Grail he would wish for mortality, so he could have a second shot at conquering the world.

Altera[]
“ | I shall leave the thinking and feeling to you. I will do the dirty work without uttering a word, like a savage robot who neither thinks nor feels. That's just how I am...
— Altera

Altera, known historically as Attila the Hun, was the king and chieftain of the Huns who laid waste to Rome. After the destruction of Sefar, a Velber send to Earth to destroy civilization, at the hands of the Greek gods, Altera was born from her core. Years later, she was found by the Huns, who, after witnessing her kill one of their warriors, believed her to be destruction personified. Taking leadership of the Huns and driven by her Velber nature, Altera laid waste to Rome, the strongest civilization in Europe. Her desire for civilization destruction would ultimately lead to her own death and the Hunnic Empire collapsed soon after.
Since the Holy Grail records all history, Altera wishes to destroy it should she get her hands on it, perhaps out of shame of all the destruction she caused.
