She can survive longer than those two cause of having heal, and one of the few casters along with Nursery Rhyme who could take on NP directly from enemies and still survive cause of her 60% defense skill at one turn, and 30% defense skill afterwards.

She has the lowest CD among the casters, 5 CD for all, technically 4 CD  cause her NP can reduce cooldown by 1 to everyone, basically you'll just be missing one turn on her buffs.

The problem with her is that, like most Arts based Servants, she needs her skills to be all maxed to see her potential.

Whereas, Merlin and Waver can be deployed early since they help finish fights fast.
