How did you paint the deathwing..im having issues painting the armor
That tyranid list was awful why would you even
make this batrep? As a joke?
@@ryc2294 Some monsters for the Dark Angels to kill in order to make them look badass?
240 gaunts would have been fun. Completely dominate the primaries.
Spacehulk: Deathwing fans: *heavy breathing*
Needs more heavy flamer.
@@SSJ9000Broly "I WOULD LIKE TO FILE A COMPLAINT."
This is what's meta right now, for dark angels.
And here we have Matt doing his best impression of someone running face-first into a concrete wall.
He's been doing it ever since Space marines got their 9th ed codex😃
Can't say I've watched a game I think where Matt doesn't play a good game and just runs his army in getting it killed
@@alexanderhukriede8787 that was a trash Tyranid list played like trash....
Lessee...enemy has a mostly hth terminator army with models equipped with multi damage high strength melee weapons and bolsters. I think I’ll run genestealers and big monsters that need to be in hth to do any damage!
Holy shit i thought the termies would get devoured and it went exactly opposite, those monsters just bounced! Xenos need urgent updates on their codexes.... s
How could you possibly think that the newly buffed terminators with a fresh codex/supplement would lose vs one of the worst armies in 9th?
@@antonlukkarinen2648 well from a purely cinematic standpoint the big monster should crush some tiny knights armed with candied apples. Ofc anyone who knows GW would know better then to think that space marines would ever be the underdog
Yea no surprices in how this went.
Dark Angels..
Everyone who isn't a Marine needs an urgend update to compete with these nonsence
I absolutely lost it when you said "Well, play a real army"
My stomach did that twist thing.
I came here to comment on that exact line; and, I did.
Where was that?
"A real army" = SPAHEIS MAHRINS
My Tyranids sitting on my shelf cry in bio matter
Steve and Matt games are always fun to watch. Their interaction and banter is great.
The fact this video is just over an hour and seeing the match up, think I can pretty much guess how it ends haha
And the powercreep continues. That always-on transhuman is too strong...
If Tyranids weren't so dang cool looking, I'd be a lot less sad about how awful the army is rn.
Makes all three saves, slooowwly pulls the dice back 😆
I'm here to hear mat cry about tyranids, because I'm crying about tyranids.
Shall we cry together?
@@Yurt_enthusiast7 yes brother, blood for the blood God, tears for the four armed Emperor
@@notsobignomore4411 out tears shall become biomass and a new codex shall rise from the spawning pools!
@@Yurt_enthusiast7 all hail the day of Ascension!
Dark angels don’t have extra range anymore. That was the old doctrine.
@Remi Lawrie Nope. Dark Angels lost Relentless Assault from Ritual of the Damned with the new Codex Supplement. They have a new super doctrine.
This batrep reminded me why I mostly play AoS.
I hear you brother, I left with exactly the same thought!
AoS is so much better than 40k anymore - above and beyond.
@@Derek147900 I don't play Marines; and, I play both AoS and 40k...?
@@Derek147900 You realize all I've said was, "AoS is better than 40k anymore - above and beyond," right? Like, I don't think I'm the person you think you're talking to...?
@@Derek147900 Damn. I fed the troll. Sorry everyone.
This game got more and more deppressing as the game went on. And the matchup was already pretty depressing.
well at least it didn't last long, what...a single turn and bit in effect
What's worst is that Space Marines attract a lot of new rude 15 year old competitive types.
Yeah feels like most betreps are kinda depressing nowadays
Might be time to refuse playing SM
@@MrPace-ge4qy just stick all the space marine players in a box and they can play each other
Nids need codex love. They need to represent the eating machines in the lore.
"Play a real army." Omg !!! GW really need to work faster to release their 9th codex. It become sad lol.
already 1 codex per month lol
I'd prefer them to take their time and work carefully with the new codex. They collect their data and do buffs and nerfs based on tournaments. And nids don't participate in any... So they better get a lot of love, because imo for example DG got a little too much love.
@@bugmanzgaming9054 tournaments are kinda compromised currently...
They can't let the game in this state, the balance is broken for too many armies. Unless you're Demon, Sistah, Harlequin, etc... and they don't focus on the critical ones, they just release Space Marines over and over.
Tyranids are not even low tiers haha. That's the worse part, they are solid mid tiers right now.
@@Silen7Force yeah but they are mid tiers tourneywise because they brint hindreads of gaunts and just sit on objectives and let the enemy kill them.
Thats the only way como nids are being played to be mid tier. Think more complex they are absolutely below f tier.
Abusing a mechanic brings them to c with new obj rules. Must not be weak huh? Jesus christ they couldnt kill a fucking lemon no wonder thats the oly way to play with them
All these battle reports having Steve makes me very happy. Always makes the games wholesome and fun haha
Steve is my favorite! “I feel like a big man.” Hahaha
Oh god I can already guess how this one went based on the armies and the video length
"Well, play a real army." Lost it.
Lol this Space marine Meta went from dumb to stupid. As a GSC Player this is getting out of hand
Space marine meta?
@@VanguardAWS are there other armies?
Last few tourments i have played was 70% Space marines so Yeah its a Meta.. Worse then imperial knights where
@@celerityak6676 I've stopped playing at turnies all together as GW refuses to balance ther games. Narrative missions are the way to go!
Love ITC hopefully we see other codexs Than marines sometime soon . All my armies are really hard to play there days. Only have xenos armies
Devilgaunts are becoming more and more attractive for Nids, until the book comes out and destroys them.
So since Azrael a 160pt model is giving a 4++ bubble I'm assuming my 270pt Swarmlord should do something more powerful than that in the new codex right?... Who I my kidding GW is not putting that much effort into a xenos army.
A lot of the Dark Angel Deathwing Units have the Stormshield and therefore a 1+, 4++, which is absoulely nonsense. For Example the Deathwing Terminators for 33pts ^^
That long pause on the Ancient's banner at lists was fabulous. That model is gorgeous and deserved the time
I can't wait for my new dark angel codex supplement. Great report guys!
I loved watching this, super fun. One thing that I just couldn't shake from my head whilst watching ...
Penn Jillette vs Jeff Goldblum
Anyone else ... ?
Me: Let the monstermash begin!
Dark Angels: Did somebody say monster smash?
Dark Angels: Mash monsters, got it
Love these shorter videos, keep it up Matt!
Steve back at it again with the 5s and 6s. 😱
Great video. This guys needs a sheet with his chosen strats and the units he picks to buff 😂
"Well play a real army" Steve, and also GW concerning any other non-marine codex.
Those Tyranids models are awesome looking, hopefully they get rules that reflect that soon
Wish it was Death Guard vs Dark Angels. >_>
osh, I remember being a young'en whe stealers and the big monsters were actually scary.
though given the deathwing and termies...I guess that makes sense....pure herd would I guess so much better
I remember the Rogue Trader rulebook when genestealers were entirely separate from the Tyranids and even a single one was a serious threat to a whole squad of marines. They also had leech heads and dinosaur tails, so that was a bit of a trade-off...
Remember when you could create your own bio-monsters, and they killed everything. crazy times.
That was painfully depressing to watch. I swear, why are SM codex always so fucking broken ?
they are not, actualy Harlequin and Sister of Battle are stronger , SM is good and Nids are worst
Because they're GW's face.
@@ysbrann3059 exactly I’m getting sick of people complaining so much about spaCe MaRiNes while sisters/custods/necrons/DG/Harlequins are crushing.
@@ysbrann3059 This This. I dont know about harlequins but SoB are strong AF right now and no one is batting a eye.
@Jude Kashlan Honestly they're not constantly op we just have like 10 sub factions that get rebalanced constantly, Imperial fist aint that bad RN but were no were close to the level of DAs and BA.
This is exactly what I was hoping to see after I saw the Deathwing rules in the new codex! An all terminator army!
How are those two armies the same amount of points? :D This is very silly. Poor Tyrranids need a new codex.
The fellah with the Dark Angels ... I can't understand a word he's saying. He sounds like a North American version of Brad Pitt in Snatch.
Thanks for playing DA. I think Bladeguard veterans are strong enough :)
very great and enjoyable video!
Based on the wording, Deathwing Command Squads would not get Objective Secured in a 1st Company detachment, as they are distinct from the "Deathwing Terminator Squad" unit. I think it makes sense, as they are supposed to be more elite than regular terminators (similar to how Knights are elite elites), which is why they form the bodyguard for characters.
So Steve wanted Matt to have turn 1 because, and I quote, "come closer, I want to hit them with my -sword- flails'
Eeenteresting game....I always love seeing the 'nids played, especially how Imperial Armour gave the big ones a whole new lease on ending others lives.
Question: did the Crusade games not pan out in terms of views or were Matts 'nids too powerful or something?
Saw all the 3 wound terminators and just click to the end, and the outcome was what I expected.
the banter this game was beautiful
GW is really something on their power creep. did they not learn from the Iron Hands Debacle?
Their fully aware of power creep but they don't care, unfortunatly is it in their business model to have an unbalanced game that gives short term sale boosts to their newest relises.
the iron hands situation sold more models and paint than ever before as waac players bought new marine armies or paint to repaint their existing marine army iron hands
what a great snow day surprise
My 'Nids are my favorite army, but boy do they suck. In desperate need of new rules and additional data sheets.
Also, I think the only even remotely viable build for them right now is an ass-ton of Termagants, Hormagaunts, and 12 Hive Guard.
P.S. Exocrines are good too.
I didn’t think they kept the extra range for their guns.
Pretty sure they didnt
They don’t. I just got so used to using it. I caught it immediately after the game.
@@MountainMiniatures now you get shooting in combat which is even better!
@@FrankSGuerra not with Deathwing.
For lost Caliban, and for the Lion!
I hope the Nid codex comes out soon...
I was cheering for the nids it was a cool list even if it may or may not of had multiple hive fleets. The disparity between the averages in the rolling hurt me more than that inner circle nonsense, but not by much.
I know the matchup is lopsided, but tyranids had a huge model and speed advantage that was thrown away by getting into combat turn 1. The problem with an on foot deathwing list is that it’s slow. Charging turn 1 just made their loss condition evaporate. Parking models on all the objectives and letting them still struggle to engage would’ve been far stronger IMO
That's absouletly right, but tbh as a Nids Player I want to fight and not sitting on obejectives the hole game and running away from Terminators. Look at the point costs for a Terminator ^^
At the end of the first turn. The one DA Terminator was out of unit cohesion that was holding the objective.
What a pile of depression it was watching this, hitting on 2+ rerolling 1s, wounding on 3+ rerolling 1s and only receiving a wound on a 4+ seems a little OTT for dark angels lol.
And with the help of the Deathwing-Apothecarius, you can ignore the wound on a 6, after your 1+, 4++. I think they missplayed it, because you only ignore to loose 1 wound at a 6, not all wounds.
"Well play a real army" oh I lost it lol.
knights and command squads do not get obj secured I believe, only terminator squads and deathwing terminator squads
that is an awesome dark angels deathwing army!! cant wait to see more dark angels.
Lmao these Bugs ran straight into a Wall of Ceramite and Unyielding Transhuman Strength.
Honestly tough, that Termie Combo looks busted as f*ck, prolly not a good Idea to run into them.
BG Vets can come in 6's now? Havent seen this b4. Wasn't able to scoop a SM codex b4 it went out of stock
Wow just wow and not a good wow. GW better give Tyranids one hell of a boost with the new codex.
I don't think they will.
Not many armies right now, but maybe you guys should only play things with an up to date 9th edition codex. This was just depressing to watch.
Seconded. It also misrepresents the balance of the game, as the proper 9th ed codexes & supplements are far closer in terms of power as compared to the indexes. We're back in the codex vs. index swamp again.
Deathwing is an army that was the high strength and damage monsters and vehicles to attack them
Can Matt legitimately use anything other than bloody genestralers and rippers... every time I see nids I'm interested and then boom... more genestealers....
My god those banners are beautiful!!
The best banter
Absolute masacre
*absolution masacre
That deathwing army looks sweet. I like that the blade guard fit right in
Drink every time Matt miscounts what's on his dice.
Im running both of these armies... damn. I feel bad just owning DA now.
Sees new dark angels *Heaving breathing starts*
If this doesn’t show how laughably underpowered the nids are... nothing will.
This wasn't really a hyper competitive list from Matt this time around. Normally when I see him playing nids he is either on point or having some fun. The two dimachareons and the hierodule was a start but against a full terminator list of deathwing was a recipe for disaster. Mass gaunts or warriors with zoanthropes and neurothropes would have been a better game.
That list was trashhhhhh.
Neither list was hyper competitive. Not to mention the Dark Angels didn’t play very optimal for the list they had. Like they said in the video. The only way to play nids is spam gaunts and ignore the other team entirely.... and even that fails more often then not (tho would have probably would hav done better then that nid list against such a sub optimal Dark Angel list).
@@JRDWoodz but marines are still marines. With a new codex. But there was no hive gaurd, zoanthropes, malanthrope or gaunts. That list was about as weak and synergyless he could of brought, especially against terminators. and he just rushed turn one and lost 1000 points on his own first turn.
@@ryc2294 still having 5 12+ hit point melee focused monsters charge into infantry and kill like 4 models. There is no excuse for that level of BS and “but they are marines” is a dumb reason, The game isn’t called “Just play Space Marines”. Tyranids have been underpowered for years and it’s that simple, the game should never have gotten to the point where the meta is so broken and leaning heavy to one or two races. Shame on GW for letting it get this bad.
I feel like they only way gene stealers can work now is if you do some strategic reserve shenanigans and double move them with the swarm lord. Or can you not use that ability on things coming out of deep strike
Swarmlord unfortunately cannot move a unit after coming in from deep strike.
@@matthewpeters4929 Of course not, it's OP 😉😆
This is awesome. So many big bugs
“It feels like I am playing against a bunch of Blue decks”
Matt I swear if you also play Legacy (based upon that statement and the state of legacy now) MTG AND Tyranids You just became my favorite member of the crew!
I feel you homie, all the space marines are getting their fancy new toys and cards that slot so easily into their decks. Don’t worry, there will still be those of us put up the grind and play the decks/armies that we love! Doesn’t matter how much attention the other decks/factions get we will play our space bugs and bad decks. Someday I would like to buy you a beer good sir, in the mean time I will do my best to support this great content!
Thanks! I'm not a regular MTG player but I have played it a bit in the past. And yeah, blue decks have always been my least favourite to play and play against. I prefer that both players get to do their cool things and see who does it better.
@@miniwargaming Thank you for being awesome! Keep up the Tyranid love too! You inspired me with your beginner build videos and once my Hive Guard and Zoanthropes get here I will have my first 1000pts!
@@miniwargaming would a heavy zoanthrope, neurothrope and malaceptor , malanthrope list do good against the deathwing yes you have No combat potential
But the sheer mortal wound output
Using encephalic diffiusion to minus 1 strengh taking storm bolters to essentially s3 , rockets to s7
Membranous Mobility: as one part of hive fleet adaptation meaning your units that have fly keyword -1to hit
In my humble opinion, Tyranids should always be painted as Xenomorphs!
how have you not glued that horn back on yet it takes like 10 seconds
That looks to be a custom Azrael. Do you mind sharing what you used? It looks great. Games Workshop can take a lesson with your Azrael.
It's Balthasar from the Dark Vengeance box set. 🙂
I know people are hating on the new marines right now (even though some of the rules were not correct in this game), I am for one thing NOT sorry to finally see terminators be good again. Now GW, let's get these other codexes out so we can have some parity. The proof in the pudding will be seen with the Drukhari codex coming soon.
so many terminators :o
You know, Steve's ridiculous rolling aside ... Space Marines are stupidly overpowered already and they just took the Dark Angels way over the top ... smh
Deathwing is probably most OP in the game. And you didn't take Belial
New Codex is OP.. Who'd have thought?? First time GW did that..
This is awesome!
FYI rippers cannot do actions. You need infantry keyword to do actions.
Always a fun battle report. I Don't think deathwing command squad get obsec? I thought it was only deathwing terminator, terminator, terminator assault squad and relic terminators that get it?
correct. i shouldn't have said they did, my bad.
@@MountainMiniatures thanks for replying Steve! Loved the review of codex and battle reports you've made me super excited to start running my DA.
FINALLY TYRANIDS
Nice! I've been curious to see how Dark Angels players are doing with the new codex.
So... The iron hands were OP... right?
In the grim darkness of the far future, there are only comments whinging and taking things far too seriously.
Enjoyed the batrep x
Did that ripper swarm perform an action? Can't only infantry and not swarms do that?
I love Steve. 😂
iv bin waiting for Tyranids!
OM NOM NOM NOM NOM
i cant see reply...sorry.
Spoilers!
The DA list hard counters a CC monstermash list so hard it's not even funny. Hard to wound and a good save is precisely what you want vs few strong attacks.
Just a little annoying with all the naysayers in the comments going "Woe is me". When you build a list as one-dimensional as this one you will get rock-paper-scissored. I think the best way to win this game with this Nid list would be to entice your opponent to spread out and try to isolate his units. Gotta use that speed advantage for something else than a 1st turn charge.
That said, I enjoyed the battle report! Short, but a bloody carnage :D
Did Matt just make a Monty python reference 😂
after 20 min I had the feeling the nid player wants to see his army lose ^^
I knew he wanted his army to lose the second i saw the list.... it was trash.
I was really hoping they'd nerf Azrael that 4+ invun bubble is way too good for space marines (space marine player here btw)
Annoys me a bit that new codexes will be balanced vs stuff like DA. While other chapters usually don't come close in terms of power
I don't know why Steve looked so surprised during the game xD .. you could totally see what would happen Deathwing are crazy powerful. You get 4+ invun, you can only be wounded on 4+ and you have a 6+ fnp.. not to mention reroll wounds vs monsters :p
i feel bad for the tyranids
Hey matt, have you considered devourergaunts? I think they are really good now that they went down 2 points a peice, so I'd put 30 of them in a trygon and then use lurking maws to reroll all hit roll.
I feel like they would've been really good this game.
They re-roll 1's if there are more than 20 in the squad anyway, but using the shoot twice strategem when they pop up is really good! 180 shots can wipe a decent amount on arrival.
I am really newto 40k, where can I find models for the devourergaunts and the rules for them? Thanks a lot 😀
That was not the list to try and fight this army with at all...
It feels really good, considering the amount of Dark Angels stuff i have, and i will fully acknowledge that they are completely set up to be the best, but they are not as infallible as many seem to think.
Yea matt really took one of the weakest lists
sick em steve! comment made only 5 min into the video hopefully the comment travels through the warp and retroactively gives you good juju
Im toying with balancing 8th ed vs 9th ed codexes for my small gaming group. Would it make more sense to give the older 'dexes more points or give newer ones less command points?
Just wait for the newer books to come out.
More pts kinda just makes people need to buy more models, I'd say give the older books an extra CP or 2
@@krilc we got models a-plenty so that won't be a problem
maybe 20% to give them a fighting chance.
