I've been a Siegfried fan ever since I saw his early design back when Apocrypha was supposed to be an MMO, and even though he definitely could have been used better in the Apocrypha story, he's been my favorite Saber along with Prototype's Arthur Pendragon.
So when F/GO allowed us to promote some of her Servants to the Grand rank, I barely hesitated. Sure, Arthur helped me quite a few times, but Siegfried was there from the very beginning and defeated many fearsome foes, from Fafnir in Orléans to the Dragon of Albion in Faerie Britain. But my greatest memory with him in F/GO was definitely how he was my main Servant in Götterdämmerung and basically conquered the Norse Lostbelt. I had a blast, while listening to various soundtracks like Saint Seiya OST IV (Asgard movie) and VI (Asgard series) or the underrated game "Viking: Battle for Asgard", seeing the Dragonslayer become a Giantslayer, even going as far as felling the mighty Surtr twice.
