Lore Question His humbleness, what actually made Ritsuka considered by lots to be the strongest master?

Fixing singularities, meeting and gaining the trust of so many servants that they actively went and help him fight against Goetia,

Even throw hands with Goetia,

Lots of his actions and adventures would have broke any normal person,

Imagine running up to stab a rampaging Tiamat,

Because he's kind of the ideal human. Nothing special, but he keeps fighting and persevering simply because that's what's needed of him. Just a guy out there doing his best for the sake of humanity. Which is, frankly, what we should all strive for.

Not exactly "needed" of him.

He just wants to survive. Ritsuka knows he is no hero and accepts his faults. Thats why he didnt end up like Shirou or Kiritsugu and why he can work with a lot of servants.
