How to beat
Maliansas Zhu Xi's Legacy
Matchup tips
The long-term food income from Malians is just so absurd that you need to have a game plan to counter that out whether it is pagodas or a second TC.
Eventually the deer runs out. The cows are forever.
Malians can still pull ahead even with like 12 vills killed off.
The Zhuge Nu are just a lot slower in comparison to the Javelin Throwers.
Each cattle inside the cattle ranch gives around 24-28 food per minute, and it gets affected by food upgrades.
Three cattle inside of a cattle ranch, you're looking at around 70 to 80 food per minute that you're getting.
Malians always have the benefit of Warrior Scouts. If both players go for Pro Scouts, the opponent of the Malian has to add in a second unit first because you can't go scout versus scout against Warrior Scouts.
Palace Guards are a really bad move against Malians. They don't counter anything; Sofa get bonus damage against infantry, and Horsemen would at least get bonus damage against Archers.
Against Malians, the Lancer play is safest because of Sofa and Musofadi. It also lets you play flanks to secure relics with Mount Lu Academy.
Against Malian Poison Arrow Archers and Sofas, the correct answer for Zhu Xi is mass Horsemen and Knights with the bonus attack speed from Zhu Xi's Legacy.
