I'm still analyzing an effective strategy. However, looking over and over the video where a player beat 6m Ibaraki with 2 and 3 there seems to be an strategy to those who doesn't have great 5 Servants (like owning a Waver, Scathach, Jack, Tamamo, etc).

1)  Two Servants with taunt. One of them can be Shielder thanks to his third skill, and how she can boost the party's defense. If the other Servant is strong against the hands it will be better because he will take less damage. In example, the player used Saint George against Caster hands.

2)  One Servant with a strong AoE NP. This seems a bit difficult. The player used Alexander against Caster hands, but Alexander have a strong burst in his NP. The idea is having someone capable of kill both hands together with one single NP.

3)  Two Servants with a single-target NP and a high damage output. The player used Robin Hood here, but we can also use someone else like Billy the Kid, Ushiwakamaru, or maybe even Jing Ke.

4)  Finally, selecting Waver for support.

5)  We equip Ushi's CE with limit break to our main damage dealer, and he will be a starting member. The other members (including Waver) need Kintoki's CE.

6)  The basic idea behind the composition is pretty simple: protect the main damage dealer at all cost and boost his NP as much as we can. Waver need to use his first skill in our damage dealer the first turn in the first battle, so we can use it once again during the second battle (the one with the boss). We use Waver's defense boost starting the boss battle, and use the attack boost only when our damage dealer will do his NP. Also, we ignore the hands and attack everytime the boss. Yes, we even receive one NP from every hand. After some turns we wipe the hands with our AoE Servant. Our second damage dealer will try to finish the job when the first die.

I haven't tried this strategy by myself yet, at least not against Assassin. Maybe when the hands transform into Lancer I'll be able to use my Mordred to wipe the hands. Also, I can't tell you how to order the Servants because it all depends on your team, and your Mystic Code. In example, the player in the video use the Mystic Code that let you change members.

I hope this can be useful for you.
