Overview
Fast shock cavalry that hits twice. Heroic Charge goes in, Turn and Charge comes straight back.
Strengths
- Two charges back to back, the second with +20% slashing damage
- 20% less damage taken while charging
- Sabre Combo: bleed on infantry and a 5s whirlwind
- Speed 9.5
Weaknesses
- 15% less damage to heroes on the charge
- Dies when stuck in long melee
- Pikes from the front
How to Play
- Always Wedge.
- Pop Sabre Combo just before the charge, so the bleed is running on impact.
- Go for back lines, archers and artillery. Pikes and shield walls only from the side or behind.
- Top tree for burst, bottom tree to charge more often and live longer.
- Open field is their home. Hills and towns slow them down.
