Notable Attacks/Techniques:
- Gordius Wheel: Iskander's favoritee Noble Phantasm. It's a huge flying chariot towed by two divine bulls. The bulls were originally an offering to Zeus but Iskander claimed it alongside the chariot when he "solved" the mystery of the Gordius knot. Apparently this is what granted him the Rider class. Both the chariot wheels and the hooves of the divine bulls constantly generate lightning strikes with power equivalent of a full strength swing from Lancer or Saber each. Waver Velvet compares its power to that of a strategic bomber, guessing it could turn Shinto into scorched earth in under one hour. The Gordius Wheel also has sharp blades extended on both sides of the vehicle that can cut through rows of trees, stone or asphalt with ease.
- Via Expugnatio: The strongest attack with the Gordius Wheel. This is a trampling move with power obviously superior to normal. Iskander calls out "Via Expugnatio!" and the chariot is covered by huge arcs of lightning. Gordius Wheel also gain a huge speed boost for the attack and Iskander almost reached Saber from 100 meters before she could execute her Excalibur attack on him.
- Ionioi Hetairoi: Iskander's Reality Marble. It allows him to generate a personal space with the scenery of an endless green field. Nonetheless it also summons Iskander's personal guard, people who vowed their allegiance to him even after death. Their numbers reach at least hundreds and each considered a low-level Master-less Servant. It even calls Iskander's favorite horse, Bucephalus which also became a Heroic Spirit despite being an animal. If needed Iskander can temporally trap people inside his Reality Marble and has a special servant to send messages to the outside and back. Iskander can choose where his opponents appear in the Reality Marble and later where to drop them (only in 100 meter radius). The downside of the ability is that it consumes tremendous amount of magic power, limiting Rider to only a several minutes of use.
