How to beatRusas Zhu Xi's Legacy

Matchup tips

Palace guard not going to be able to do too well here up against the archers. They do of course lack that additional pierce armor compared to normal men at arms.

I personally struggle a lot with this matchup as Zhu Xi's Legacy versus Rus where I'm like, okay, I can't just play fast castle as well. Like my knights are just not going to really achieve enough against the Horse Archers from the Rus.
