Gilgamesh, beyond all doubt. Ishtar has more survivability than Gil with her invul (although it's percentage based...) since Gil has no defensive skills at all and her battery is larger (50% vs 25%), but Gilgamesh absolutely smashes her in all other categories when it comes to offence. Higher base attack, lots of hits on all his cards for tons of NPgen and stargen, a 3 turn starabsorb to take advantage of his great stargen, Golden Rule (for even more NPgen) and an NP that is both ridiculously powerful (he gets a free NP+30% damage on top of 400% multiplier) and is specialised in killing (nearly) all Servants to the point he inflicts comparable damage to ST Noble Phantasms.

There is a reason Gilgamesh is considered the King of Heroes, and the sheer magnitude of his power is reflected well in FGO. Easily considered amongst the best in the game (Ishtar in comparison is mid-tier at best, she's risen a bit with the NP Interlude but is rather patchy with her timed gimmicks and reliance on good turn setup)
