Ironic that the faction whose endless swarms of bug intent on total eradication plays more like a strategic objective based army on the tabletop

Very usful content. Just started with the tyranid combat patrol and looking forward for more!

[hypnoticpoison]

please more of those videos! im a beginner and still need to learn all the tricks with tyranids

This format is great. Really like the cross analysis with Thousand Sons. Great use of the map to show position. Like the win conditions on primary. If you ever run out of Tyranid content could do some Dark Angles, Death Guard, Thousand Sons, or World Eaters. Seems like you guys have plenty of armies across the team for Wednesday Night.

Hey man! Really informative video, I think one thing that would be nice is if there were arrows put onto slides for indicating which direction a unit plans to move, like for example the carnifexes I imagine plan to push that bottom edge but just to be 100% clear on what your intentions with that unit is. Love the content man keep its up!

So glad I found this channel! I’ve been slowly painting my bugs over the past year and have only played one Combat Patrol game with them, but I want to play the big game and these videos are so helpful!

I love my bugs. I think it has the most versatile list of units both in terms of different models and rules.

You can run 10 lone ops, 9 Infiltrate, and 7 fights first in one army. OR giant monsters, or swarm, or deep strikers.

The only major weakness is that we have very few leader-unit combos.

This was really helpful. Made me join the channel! I am new to Tyranids and your content is already impacting my play. Thanks.

Swingy is the Hive’s hallmark. You have to ride the chaos of the extremes of normal distribution, with often no way to smooth back onto average. But that makes Tyranids exciting to play, in my opinion.

[KampferNL]

I really like the way you explain your gameplay, great video!

[MarkoSeldo]

Just what I needed, just when I needed it.

[Kingmaster]

exactly the kind of visual tutorial i asked for in the last vid :D awesome

[Dewoy]

I very much appriciated this video. As a Tyranid player than currently often faces other Tyranids, getting the weaknesses layed out like this is helpful, especially because i m playing Necrons tomorrow vs Crusher Stampede.

[SquidSquisher]

Love these tactics videos, I started a nid army recently and these have been very useful in improving my strategy

[Stillhazey]

Thank you so much for the tips. You answered a lot to my gameplay I appreciate the vid

[marcperkins]

Thanks for the great content you put out it has helped me build my list, always wanted a nid force and have now settled on a list i like that fits 3 Norm Emissary's

Another great Tyranids tactical walkthrough!

[Deathgaming]

11:17 anyone who sees this take a look at this deployment, how much room do models have coming in from board edge on this deployment, then compare it to all the other deployments. It made me release, put as much stuff as you can into reserves on this one! Then just put models on board to claim realestate!! It blew my mind! It works so well!

[AlexDenton]

I come from Battletech where you have at most 12 Models on the board at a time. So seeing an army that runs off of 10x that many easily, alongside a variety of gameplay makes me incredibly interested.

Tyranids are rough to win with sometimes. Still my fav army.
