I'm pretty sure the tomb spyders were looking idle like that because they had been stunned by tau tealth suits (EMP grenade ability, prevents vehicles from moving or firing for 10 sec).
Really cool back and forth with one side eventually out-scaling the other! its clear that one side eventually just spammed enough units to buy enough time to overpower the other! Very solid play!
All Tau for some reason ignore Krootoxes, when they are hands down best Tau "Tanks", they deal insane DPS in melee and range while being medium demon which somewhat better than vehicle unless you fighting SOB
Standard-issue and anti-infantry(especially anti-high) infantry weapons usually deal a considerable damage againt daemon medium armour. Like, for example, a heavy bolter for space marine squad with no upgrades does 29.7 dps on daemon medium armour, while only 8.7 on vehicle low and 36.1 on heavy infantry medium. So krootoxes are beefy with hp, but their armour class is quite lacking, I think.
@@KachiAT But on the other hand you dont suffer 280 damage from each rocket fired at you and launchers are usually more dangerous since they are hit and run. In this game immortals deal 5 times less damage to deamons compared to vehicle. so there are no real counter for them outside of Wraith that would just die in 2 hits
@@iMost067 there's still a lot of NWs tho. Who can do a lot of damage to krootoox. AND you need a T3 Kayuon command for it. Pariahs eat krootoxes for breakfast and they are also T3 unit. They also slow with bad HP regeneration. I'll take dog squad with shaper over krootox any day of the week. Dogs have high speed(with shaper), high melee damage output to infantry, a lot of health(with shaper) and termoarmour. Dogs are amazing, while Krootoxes are kinda "meh". They might deliver a killing blow, but so can dogs. The only advantage krootox have is that after Kauon-specific upgrade they have even more hp(almost 9k), but that's still doesnt change the fact that hp isnt the problem of krootox.But healing the damage and having vulnerability to vast majority of weapons are.
Necrons weakpoint is slowness, but once they get the time to improve units, they're overpowered. In the other hand, TAU are like eldars: stealth, long fire range, tactically quite fast, special vehicles and commander as strenghts. Nevertheless, they are mainly weak all time about firepower while very expensive about melee units. TAU player was never very close to Necron's base. He was under pression playing weak TAU units to attack and defend hardly strategic towers. So, Necrons would win by default if you don't destroy its base as soon as possible. Nice vid by the way.
Yeah I'm genuinely surprised the Tau player did not rush the Necron Base. While I'm admittedly new to this game. Even I know that trying to face THE NECRONS late game as Tau especially in a fair fight is a death wish. There are only two factions in the game that can arguably do it. But even then those factions generally have the upper hand and their strongest units already out on the field first.
I do believe there was a really cool 2 v 2 with 2 Tau players who did very well. About a month ago, maybe? I do so many games it's hard to keep track of specific games!
Mr land shark is right, there was a 2v2 (2 tau vs necro + sm) bit over a month ago where the tau dominated right from the get go, necro+sm were on the defensive straight away and never got going.
It's what 90% of people who play at a high level play. One day there will be tons more uni/pro/UA stuff to cover. Once we make Dawn of War great again.

Your commenting is getting better and better Mr. Landshark!
Always a good day when you see the Tau getting massacred 😂

Krootoxes are tier 4, Tau never hit tier 4 in this game. They're also really ponderous units.
Such a cool match this one. At one point, one side was dominating the other, than it flipped, then again. Lovely game!
Very nice match. Nice use of the devil fish, and nice non-use of flayed ones.
Youre my favorite Norf FC. Marry christmass.
Cheers pal, I'll buy you a sausage roll from Greggs for your kind words.
Thatll happen when you let your opponent have both thermo plasma gens.
Great game brah, wasn't sure who was going to take it.
after watching your videos I realized I played this game completely wrong.

Great Match.
Has Tau ever won a match in any of your casts ? They seem to get wiped out every time :(
They're upholding lore accuracy. heh.
Yes, I remember a Tau vs Ork match where the Tau player won

@@milkforthekhorneflakes3581 Do they lose that much? I thought Tau are one of the most powerful races In 40K
And Another prove, that tau s OP faction. Btw great match
Did you call the necron lord "John Cena"? Lol
I love your commentary but the vanilla game is just so bad compared to unification and apocalypse mods
I think theres pros and cons to em all, Id hate to see the vanilla game casts go tbh
Vanilla has the most competitive scene tbh. Much fewer people play mods compared to vanilla.
