Yari asihgaru use ??
i only use this unit to guard isolated castles that i have
since the defeaft that i surferred because of them i rare used them in battle , i prefer to use more 100 to train yari samurai
But if somone have some ideas to use them our tips to i used them better i am all ears m8
I only use them in early game, when you don't have alot of koku and your opponents are not very teched up. They can defeat the light cavalry units and so should be used against them. They are very vulnerable to missiles so keep them out of range. If your opponent does not have any cavalry, use there high speed to flank the enemy units once your Yari sam has engaged them. Can also be used to chase down routing troops. But you are right, other than that they are best used as garrisons and also for the bridge bait tactic.
Another good use is to use a few before you get cavalry as they run just as fast as archers and the yari samarai is slower than the archers so this stops them from peppering the yari samarai like HA's can do easily
