Erm Noble-phantasm is divided into several categories:

Anti-Unit (Vs 1 person. Gáe Buidhe/Gáe Dearg)
Anti-Army (Vs 1-99 person mostly, can up to few hundreds. Ionioi Hetairoi)
Anti-Fortress/Structure (Vs few hundreds at least, like Excalibur can target up to 1000, which is rare case.)
Anti World (Can target more than thousands or even affect whole world, like Ea)

While Anti-dragon is sub-stat belonged to Arondight and some other Noble Phantasm. It deals bonus damage vs Dragon-related spirits... And Saber carries dragon's blood TOO BAD SHE CAN'T FUS RO DAH lulz.

The more we think, the more loopholes we see. In UBW, Shiro is damn lucky he cut off Gil's arm before he can use Ea. Anyway, kinda sad to see Broskander being killed off like that. He never really had a chance against Gil.

arcuied is the strongest in TM universe.no doubt about that.
second is ryogi shiki.i mean she is the akasha herself and kill everything that is alive.all magus simply want to reach her. what to do after reach her?dunno,sex maybe?lol

after this 2 monster/god is type mercury/jupiter/etc

gil is not that strong compare to Tsukihime's character. but his ea actually means something though. the reason why he lost in fsn is he is holding back,he cant simply destroy the world especially saber which he loves deeply.

talking about plothole here is one:avalon

avalon makes the user invincible correct? we all saw dat when irie stabbed by kirei.

if that is true,isnt that means rin wasted her precious gemstone that her father gave? if that is true isnt dat shiro is practically the most unkillable character throughout the story?then why each time u pick the wrong decision shiro dies?then if that is true HF ending's where he got his body destroyed also not true rite?

i mean his avalon stayed through out the route,nobody even realize a scabbard shoved inside his body right?

true,but incase you dunno saber is like,80 percent of the route near to shiro
