1st guards got severely fucked up in Kharkiv. They were supposed to be an elite unit and they got routed, abandoned their tanks, and suffered super high casualties.
All they will ever do for the rest of the war is hide behind their "elite" reputation like this, to be a threatening symbol on a map to pull defenders away from the real fight.
I do hope russia moronically tries another "we attack Kyiv from belarus" though, because it would be such a blunder, such a display of the complete lack of strategy from the top that I think it would be the end of putin.

That would be one hell of a shitshow. They couldn't do shit when Ukraine was unprepeared, i can't even begin to imagine how hard they'd get fucked if they tried to do the exact same thing when the entire border is mined and fortified.
