Most OP combo is the skirmisher + crossbow. The crossbow will chip down stack of enemies from afar, while skirmisher dps are stackable (up to 5 times), cheap, and a full stack of them will destroy even cavalry. Use Shield Maiden or Ninja to tank for them at the beginning (when you can't spend 80+ gold right away yet)
