Pairings

• 
  Alexander Nevsky · as primary

  Budget deputy option: Yoshitsune's cheap single-target nuke slots under Nevsky's cavalry buffs without changing the playstyle.

• 
  Cao Cao · as deputy

  Two single-target cavalry nukers; Cao Cao's march speed delivers Yoshitsune's burst before the target can disengage.

• 
  Baibars · as deputy

  Baibars' AoE slow holds a crowd in place for Yoshitsune's single-target execution.

• 
  Pelagius · as deputy

  Pelagius' cavalry skill kit backs Yoshitsune's nuke, and his post-rework S rating may lift this beyond a budget pick.
