Introduction
Minamoto no Yoshitsune is a legendary Commander who comes from Japan’s nation. Unlike Kusunoki Masashige, who also comes from the same country and specializes in the infantry, he is very good at commanding cavalry units. His abilities allow him to do very well in both PvP and PvE.
If you are willing to invest some cash into the game, then Minamoto no Yoshitsune is the easiest legendary Commander to unlock since you can buy his sculptures in the VIP shop (from VIP 1 to VIP 9). And that is the only way to obtain his sculptures in the game.
