Firstly, if you don't know anything about the mechanics, read them http://kairosity.tumblr.com/post/125576872324/fategrand-order-how-to-play here.

Also, you don't need to reroll any of these. And if you like the servant, they'll all totally usable. The game isn't remotely hard until Camelot, which is months away, and even then it's beatable with specific silvers and support servants. Frankly, anything above a 3* is just a bonus in this game. That said, this guide is written with recommendations in case you do want to reroll for something optimized.
