Heracles is more or less good for any situation as a pinch hitter, being the most survivable single target 4* Berserker. He also becomes SEKAI DE ICHIBAN TSUYOI if gotten to Bond 10. He's the easiest to use, so yes, raising him first would be the most practical.

EMIYA is a meh AoE archer at first, but becomes a viable AoE sweeper archer after his NP interlude and first strengthening quest, and potentially and utter monster of critical hits after his second. He's also of the S curve, meaning you can stop raising him at level 70/80(final ascension) and not miss out on too much. Still it's a sizeable investment.

Elizabeth starts out as a subpar AoE Lancer and is still a subpar AoE lancer by herself, but her strengthening quest allows her to provide a HUGE ATK steroid to her female party members - it's a great niche, but it's a niche that needs a fair bit of preparation (and you need to raise female party members to work her with).
