A few people probably missed it, but Patchouli has a plan in the works in order to neutralize the anti-power Shifters. Basically she is creating shields with her Metal elemental magic that act as seals, dampening the powers of whoever holds them. However, if those shields are struck by these Shifters, it will unseal their power and allow them a brief second of full-ish power to take them out. And of course every mage type would have those not dependent on powers backing them up to get them into battle (likely with swords provided by Shirou Emiya).

MY QUESTION IS: Is this idea going to work or are they going to fail miserably?


Because I intend to have Patchy killed, and I'm trying to iron out the how and why.
