Which servant for the 3m downloads campaign

Just want to hear the opinions here about which servant I should get:

I'm leaning towards Marie or Martha (rider) because my best riders are currently a Level 60 Ushi (Np:3) and a Level 50 Boudica (np:2). But Ushi is pretty decent and I'm liking her so far so I'm not sure if I should get a 4S Rider. Marie or Martha?

Or Emiya (Archer) because I only have a Max David (np:5) for archer which I really like because he has the party wide buff for evade which saves my party on more than 1 occasion. But since Emiya is 4S, will he be a good addition?

Lastly, I have a max Carmilla at np 1 and I'm wondering if it's worth getting her np to level 2.

Any thoughts? I'm also open to other servants on the list for the campaign. Though I'm not so keen on Berserkers since I have a Lancelot.

Emiya's fine after some dedication, but he's not the greatest, consistent Archer. His NP is weak until Interlude and he has a weird mishmash of Arts/Crits focus, without much star generation outside of his NP and a super awkward Arts+ skill when he has a Buster NP. I like mine okay, but mine's NP is level 3 (to my dismay).

Martha's pretty bad unless you plan to pair her with someone like Fran or TamamoCat to cleanse their NP downsides. Her damage is terrible and her NP is pretty pathetic all the way around. She's good for supporting other servants who cripple themselves, but that's...kind of it. I'd stick with Ushi, if I were you.

Marie's not a damage dealer, either, but she's a good support. I prefer to use Alexander, honestly.

Get who you want, but the ones you're asking about here are all pretty meh. Carmilla's a nice option to increase that base damage. I'm personally looking forward to nabbing a Heracles, as Fran is my best Berserker right now.

Marie is a lot tankier than Martha though Martha offers heal support and in the future she deals more NP damage.

David's gimmick is only his evade skill so having Emiya is a nice addition to your team due to AoE NP and his strengthening buff in the future.

While it is good to have Carmilla at NP2, you may want to invest the ticket to the servants you don't have unless Carmilla is your main.

But in the end, Heracles will always be a top choice unless you have him already. Lancelot is mostly on farming team but Heracles is all around berserker due to his damage buff and survivability especially when with his bond 10 .

Speaking in a general sense, you should look at getting a Herc. He's arguably the best SR in NA right now and once you get his bond CE, he definitely will be the undisputed best SR for a while. He can carry you through various story and challenge quest. Lancelot is an AoE berserker so they can fill slightly different roles, if you're worried about that.

If you don't like herc then Emiya is another great option. Especially once he gets his skill upgrade, he'll be very strong. He'll also fill your AoE archer slot. He'll be very useful for you.

If you have your heart set on rider then I would say go for Martha. I belive she has a greater impact in the battle overall than Marie does.

Don't go for an Np2 Carmilla. She's great but you can get way more value by choosing one of the other servants I mentioned above. Or even the ones I haven't mentioned, if you don't have them. Only go for her NP2 if you have all the other good servants.

Thanks guys for your replies. I will decide between Herc and Emiya. Though, based on my shallowness, I might go with Emiya since he's easier on the eyes (LOL) and I understand that once he gets his strengthening quest, he's gonna be strong.
Though out of curiosity, do you think he will matched up to Herc's level after his quest?

Unfortunately no he's just held back too much by his arts deck/buster NP combo and his AoE NP to be truely top tier like herc, still a solid choice post strengthening though.

Shame, Heracles is a much better single target 1 shot berserker. Lancelot's great for dailies and wave clear but Heracles is the go to for tough boss fights. With a triple buster deck, atk up, evade/crit damage up, and guts, he has a lot more survivability and burst damage, easily doing over a 100k damage with an NP + extra chain, his Buster crits alone can do more than 50k each, and even normal Buster hits can go past 20k damage when buffed.

Mine's grailed to Lv90 and his Buster crits can hit with over 100k damage when paired with Waver.
