    Fully painted Pure melee tyranids got best general.

    Beat an Invisible 2++ rerolling wolfstar, and then a guy who replaced the 1s on all his dice with 6s.

    I painted it all for you Cook and you didn't even show! D:

    edit- and Tyson is having a 40k existential crisis after facing yet another flyrant spam copycat. I feel bad for him that he can't go anywhere without facing flyrants.

    At least 50%(probably like 70%) of the lists there contained 3 flyrants, or 3 knights, or a wolfstar, or necrons.

    It was me btw lol


    list was

    Swarmlord (who gave no ****s)
    Trygon
    Haruspex (who is just terrible at everything.)
    Dimacharon
    30 gaunts
    Tervigon
    2 Malanthropes

    Endless Swarm
    3 X ~20 hormagaunts
    3 X 10 termigaunts
    3 warriors

    Turns out if there is a problem throwing hormagaunts at it usually works out

    Tickle me impressed.
    Always cool to see lists that are different than the competitive norm end up doing well.

    Well, now I feel bad. Was working on rebuilding my old 5th ed 'nids for the June Dlair tournament and had planned to bring 2 flyrants to support an otherwise questionably useful list; would hate to give him flashbacks.

    I hate flyrants so much, but I could probably have a fun time against someone using only 2 if they are your only fliers and the rest of the list is questionably useful. (3 is where I draw the line)

    I'd say just use Malanthropes to beef up the list. They are arguably one of the best units in the game right now if only because they just go "screw you" to gunlines.(especially when combined with super fast hormagaunts). The rest of your list will be much more powerful instead of just sitting around waiting for the flyrants to carry the game.
