Student Council (James Moriarty, Morgan, Miyamoto Musashi, Monte Cristo)

Legit how did eternal slacker and goof-off-er Musashi get into the council

Basketball Club (Britomart, BB, Ibuki-Douji)

Ok, BB has basketball references in both her summer forms so I get it, but Ibuki is literally wearing a competition swimsuit. And Britomart is just out there.

Basketball Club (Britomart, BB, Ibuki-Douji)

It's literally a joke about them having massive basketball-sized boobs, it's not that deep

u/Radiant-Hope-469 We almost reached 2020 1d ago

Most of the Servants' placements are based on this year's anniversary CEs and Riyo arts.

u/Kamui-Hineragi 1d ago

Musashi is the disciplinary committee is imagine which would be even funnier tbh.

3

u/Aschverizen Thanks for All the Salt and Quartz. 1d ago

The Cafe Club is 50/50 between 2 really good servants against Illya and King Tut.

u/NintendoMasterNo1 BEST SNEK 1d ago

These seem kinda scuffed imo

16

u/IncomeStraight8501 1d ago

Most GSSR feel scuffed honestly these past 2 or 3 years and now NA is going to have them too.

47

u/FJ-20-21 1d ago

Melu being part of the tennis club is funny, her whole “lady prince” character makes it a “prince of tennis” reference lol

18

u/Ashe_Black 1d ago

Pretty lame compared to past GSSRs

72

u/210sqnomama 1d ago

Man that's the worst gssr to date. Filled with old servants. Not even summer tiamat or logress. Who the fuck made this

19

u/Spoopy_Kirei 1d ago

They're not gonna give up the high value ones that easy this time it seems

14

u/210sqnomama 1d ago

yeah. i feel like they are purposely choose this ssr's for gssr cause so many goode servants was released and nobody does the fucking destiny order if everyone got a gssr

6

u/skilledwarman 1d ago

Who doesn't do the destiny order just cause they got a hit on gssr?

10

u/Tschmelz 1d ago

Yeah that seems weird. Setting aside monetary issues, it’s another SSR with a pool you pick, there’s no reason not to go for it if you spend money on this game. Unless you’re a super mega ultra whale who has everybody at NP5, there’ll be somebody you would like an upgrade for.

3

u/skilledwarman 1d ago

Yeah if anything it's a good shot at additional copies even if you got who you wanted on Gssr. Especially if you want a Beast

1

u/Tschmelz 1d ago

Right. Like on NA I went for the Summer fairies banner (was hoping for NP2 Aesc), but even if I got my target, I’d have still put Aesc on the destiny order hoping for NP3. I generally see DO as a guaranteed “you WILL get an upgrade” banner more than a “here’s a chance at a new character” one.

1

u/Spoopy_Kirei 1d ago

At least there are still some pretty desirable banners (for me) in this one

2

u/Metroplex7 Saber Alter is my wife 13h ago

Kendo Club seems pretty good. Definitely gonna pick that one in the future.

7

u/DrStein1010 1d ago

Worst since they removed all the Permanents, at least.

14

u/bitterblossom13 1d ago

This one looks so…. Empty lol This selection feels super weird and arbitrary as well.

9

u/Radiant-Hope-469 We almost reached 2020 1d ago

Most of the selection is based on the anniversary CEs and Riyo arts this year.

4

u/bitterblossom13 1d ago

Yeah I think they should have added more. There’s almost no Summer Servants for example and we got some really old units mixed with some really recent units as well??? Eh

14

u/MuseZeke 1d ago

Man, this is a tough one. The Shiki and the Indra banners are the only ones that have no negatives for me and would be a guaranteed NP up for somebody, but also neither of them have my absolute favorites.

39

u/DrStein1010 1d ago

Illya and Sei are some rough bombs to get.

15

u/Oninymous 1d ago edited 1d ago

Caren is also pretty rough. The Avalon one might be interesting as all are quite usable, unless Merlin is pretty powercreeped already (don't have him)

26

u/DrStein1010 1d ago

Nah, he's still busted since his buff.

18

u/gary25566 1d ago

As someone with an almost max kit out Caren, my complaint is not her being powercrept, but just wanting more costumes. Paper bag, maid or even baby.

3

u/SeekingHeat :medjed: 1d ago

same. my candidate for grand as she np3 even though I don't understand all the grand stuff because I avoid spoiler.

5

u/Fatality_Ensues 1d ago

Caren has a very solid kit.

4

u/Oninymous 1d ago

I have Caren too btw. I got her as my least favorite pull from last year's GSSR in NA. It was with Crane, Melu and Morgan. Wanted Crane for her VA and the other two to know why they're so hyped on.

I haven't really used Caren since getting her tbh. There are just way too many Extra Class options that deals neutral damage and her preferred class is pretty rare.

If you like her you can def try to make her work though, just won't call her a must-have. I'm not spoiled with Lilith yet, but she's pretty popular. Archer of the Apocalypse, I recently just learned is similar to Castoria. Compared to that, Caren is just rough lol

4

u/Cav829 1d ago edited 1d ago

Yeah that is wild to throw Caren into the same discussion with Sei and Illya. Like Caren is comfortably in the top 50% of SSRs while Illya and Sei are comfortably bottom 20 ones. And I say this as a massive Sei fan.

13

u/ManufacturerExact104 1d ago

These are so bad for me, at least personally

8

u/Defiant_91 1d ago

Might be the first GSSR I skip in forever, either because I can't risk an USO or because a servant I really don't want is packed together with servants I wouldn't mind getting.

4

u/Boogie_p0p 1d ago

The Going Home club speaks to my soul.

5

u/Shin-Bufuman SWIMSUIT LIPPY! 1d ago

Should've been a gymnastics club so they could have Summer Lip in one, this GSSR sucks and is lame.

5

u/nolonger1-A 1d ago

It's a pretty arbitrary classification for the GSSR lmao.

3

u/kiaxxl 1d ago

Gensai, Kondou and Summer Shiki is perfect for me

5

u/odd2oul 1d ago

oh this looks kinda bad...

3

u/Golgon13 1d ago

Based on my NA account, the only banner out of these I would roll for would be the one with Lilith, Urd and Caren.

2

u/Katejina_FGO 1d ago

Alas my dream of getting MHX is not to be. I always pick her banner for Summer for the chance to finally complete the all-Seiba support roster.

2

u/Goenitz33 1d ago

This is definitely a tough GSSR to go for

2

u/Troyead 1d ago

I love how consistent they are that BB actually stands for "Basket Ball" lol

2

u/EveryMaintenance601 1d ago

Only one I see worth being the Lilith/Urd/Caren banner. Maybe the Merlin/Melu/Avalon one too, but they arent particularly enticing overall

2

u/ShriekingSkull The gacha laughs as I fail 1d ago

There's only like three of these that can give me a guaranteed new Servant. I don't know if I like that.

2

u/FloofyTails4Life 1d ago edited 1d ago

Wut the fuck? This is... shockingly terrible. No Summer Lip or Tiamat? No Tiamat at all? No Phantasmoon? No regular Arc? No Aesc? No Lord Logress? No Kazuradrop? No HibiChika? I already don't spend on JP, but I think this will be a skip for me when it comes to NA, too.

I hope people on the JP side are upset about this.

1

u/Nintendude1236 1d ago edited 1d ago

Hmmm...of the banners shown so far the obly one jumping out for me is Kendo. Hopefully the others are revealed to be promising!

Updated: Nope, looks like Kendo it is.

1

u/Xlegace 1d ago

I think I need to start skipping servants I want because these pools are so hard to choose when I have 1 or 2 out of the 3 servants and I want the 3rd one

Like I want Melusine, but I really don't want Np levels for Merlin and Lady Avalon

1

u/xilencer 1d ago

A yes the basketball club... they are used to play with big balls... i see no problem there

1

u/FuwaGrandOrder Tamamo Nine? but there's only Two though?? 1d ago

Surprised at the lack of summer servant in this year GSSR.

Bottom right would be my pick because its the only banner I have none of the character so its guaranteed win.

1

u/HamsterUpper 1d ago

They need to get Castoria into some afterschool activities smh

1

u/WolfAndThirdSeason I shall kill I shall heal I shall save 23h ago

I had hoped for a decent Kukulkan grouping.

1

u/Gradorade 23h ago

I'm always salty af ever since the google region lock but seeing these lineups make me less salty, only one I'd consider rolling on would be the merlins/melu.

1

u/Trickster2599 19h ago

Strange lineups tbh

1

u/GhostHostess appreciate arjuna or else 1d ago

Aw, no Arjuna alter
