Well, I would imagine that Zouken would be one (probably the first one, in order to free up Sakura for other uses). Also Shinji/Mordred would make sense, and probably Ilya/Berserker.

Well, like I said, Zouken would have to be first, although he'd likely be supported by Shinji/Rider for at least a little bit. Shinji/Mordred obviously comes later. Ilya and Berserker would likely be intersperced like in canon, because you're not going to beat Ilya on the first try.

so then you are suggesting

zouken, ilya, Shinji, ilya (final time) Mordred and then gilgamesh.

Not quite. Shinji would initially be with Rider, and would be fought prior to fighting Zouken. Then, after Zouken is defeated (or possibly even before), Ilya shows up, and is fought repeatedly throughout the story, before finally being defeated. Shinji and Mordred I'm not too sure about.

I don't see shinji fighting a group coming to rescue sakura i see him fleeing and in keeping with sakura's character rider goes with shinji, later released after they defeat him.

Once Zouken is dead, though, Sakura has little reason not to destroy the book, especially if Shinji is attacking Shirou.

you aren't putting yourself in her shoes, further than that Shinji wouldn't attack him outright. he's not stupid.

Well, Shirou presumably knows she's a magus, so what does she have left to lose?

Also, presumably we don't want Rider to die, in order that Sakura can get to be involved, which makes defeating Shinji without him losing the book difficult.

sakura's personality would lead her not to take rider back, she still, I can't say pities shinji but it's complex and to answer how to take rider back later it's simple, archer, rb, rin.

What?

Why would they need Rule Breaker for that? Plus, that would give Rider to Rin, not to Sakura.

If Rider is a danger to Shirou, all she has to do is ask Sakura, and she'll destroy the book.

And, yes, she would pity Shinji, but she wouldn't be willing to let him hurt people.

I imagine because archer would want to smack shinji in the mouth personally.

No, but if they know she's a magus, then they're likely to be more open with her about what they're facing.

If Shirou was going to risk his life fighting Rider, and was aware of her nature as a magus?

Why wouldn't she...?
