Cav tops the scoreboards on most open/town maps because cav can do what other classed can't:
- Rape enemy spawn, afk dudes and stragglers
- Move fast around the battlefield searching for easy kills(peasants, bad players, unaware players)
- Use the chaos of the battlefield to their advantage(players that are engaged in melee combat usually ignore cav and you can hit them from side or from behind)
Cav loses 1vs1 to every class in game assuming both players are equally skilled.
- Archer rapes cav. There is no way to kill an archer(unless its slow strength build) if he knows how to move(high speed horse is very easy to dodge, slow speed horse is very easy to circle around while shooting it or using secondary weapon).
- Pike rapes cav. Self-explanatory.
- 2h rapes cav. Those lol stabs hang around in air so long you can't miss. Slight side movement and the charging cav will miss.
- 1h+shield wins if he has decent athletics(or light armor) . Again, horse is easy to dodge if you know its there and if you are not a slow tincan.
It is easy to try this, just go to duel servers and challenge non-noob infantry players with your horseman and see what happens.

Just lol dude, but it doesnt surprise me you dont want cav nerfed, your in the GK clan. You live by the op'ness.
2h rapes cav ? lets see..... cav got better reach, better movement and faster movement speed. 2h got........... nothing ?
1h wins against cav ? dude are you shitting me ? f the cav knows what he is doing its very hard. they got better reach, better movement and faster movement speed again. 1h and shield got....... nothing ?
Archers rapes cav ? That depends on the situation, if its on a roof, ofc you wont hit archer. But if its on a flat gorund, the archer is quite fucked. its not easy to dodge the cav if the cav knows where the archer is goin. same way around, if the archer knows where the cav is goin, its not easy for the cav to hit him.
Have u ever played as infantry ? and cav is not a 1v1 class, so comparing it as a 1v1 class is stupid.
