FINALLY,a batrap with Dave in it,haven’t seen him in forever!

[@samthompson2980]

He's been busy creating figure lines and , hopefully, being kind to himself ❤ really good to see you both come down from your ivory towers 😂😂, joking - really good to see you both in action ❤❤

[@ryanlott1108]

The Dave/Matt rivalry is what initially got me into tabletop 40k

[@danielsamaniego4462]

This is what 40k is about! The banter, the friendship, THE CARNAGE! Thank you for your hard work guys!

[@WhatThe40k]

The Matt vs Dave, Nids vs Chaos battles are easily my favourite part of a new edition🔥🔥

[@dovahkin813]

Get recognized

[@adamcarr1387]

Man I love your channel, tyrannofex conversion is amazing

[@WhatThe40k]

@@adamcarr1387 Thank you! I appreciate that☺

[@mattbentley2449]

Best of THREE, but... only if Dave learns his armies most violent rules and uses them mercilessly

[@samcook9542]

"I don't want to bait you but these guys are probably dead and you should make the longer waaay more unlikely charge"...fails the charge ... immediately mentions that genestealers are 2 wounds and pops a strat for a FNP and then wipes the zerker unit. Excellent bait.

[@drunkenmoosedk]

i missed you guys, there is a chemistry there like no other. ❤

[@Sstrictlyrude]

Nothing better seeing both Matt and Dave doing essentially a banter bat rep. You two bring so much joy to the table. I love seeing how much fun both of you are having. Nothing makes me happier than seeing two old friends having a good time rolling dice, saying crazy things, and showing what makes war-gaming a lifelong hobby.

[@traversal6881]

Please catch me up. Why did they stop doing them together? Too much business so they got others to do the batreps?

[@MJ-jd7rs]

Best of three, best of three, best of three, best of three, best of three, best of three, blood for the blood god, Best of three, best of three, best of three, best of three, best of three, best of three!! And not just because I want more Dave on the channel.

[@gabrielrodriguez457]

As an avid MWG watcher since 5th edition, I want to see the best of 3. When those two play against each other, magic happens. I still remember when Matt's Tervigon killed Dave's Demon Prince 😂. Make it happen guys

[@daniellambert1217]

Oh god i remember that too ! both of them so surprised lol

[@MsWubwub]

38:28 hate to say it but you only get to pick 2 blessings Dave, regardless of how many pairs you found.

[@RethShannar]

I always look forwards to watching Matt VS Dave. Rematch, because these are always fun!

[@krazywizbiz2914]

Classic! Matt is always too harsh on his old models, but they remind me of when I was a whole lot younger. Thanks for the amazing batreps as always!

[@user-ng7wr3he2i]

"Angry Ron" LMAO. This is probably an old meme, but it was new to me. Love it

[@seawurm]

Matt, you fifteen year old paint job is still better than anything I can do.

[@magnus0017]

Dave's first words perfectly sum up my reaction to seeing this exist. Thank you, MWG. ^_^

[@DrVesuvius70]

I watched this through when it was briefly first available, but it was pulled before I could comment. I've been following MWG Studios off and on for a looooong time. There is some indefinable magic happening in this Dave vs Matt batrep that you just don't get in any other batreps. Somehow there's an energy that comes from their long friendship, shared history and their complementary/clashing personas that's impossible to reproduce. It's really quite beautiful. Thanks guys. Definite yes to the Best of Three.

[@traversal6881]

Yeah, why do we not see more of them in videos usually?

[@RoamGaming]

Matt and Dave are the only real reason I watch MWG. Their history, their connection is what makes this channel what it is. The rest is filler. We need more of this.

[@joehoc4922]

Well done Dave. BLOOD FOR THE BLOOD GOD!!!

[@natedanforth9652]

Dave's hundred yard stare is such a funny little thing

[@davidwagner825]

My favorites are always when you two play battles! I remember watching you all when I started Warhammer with my dad and brother.

[@HankGlamorous]

heck yeah best of 3!!!! these are honestly one of the things i look forward to at the start of an edition!

[@maxtracker2904]

Dave back derailing Matthew’s professional intro just makes me happy 😂

[@michaeldlubac9096]

Best of 7 works for me, these are enjoyable games to watch.

[@Zerato]

Love you Dave but we gotta keep tradition going and Matt has to take the W

[@Randorandomson]

Yes more of you two in all things. This is what I subscribed for.

[@Audentum]

I remember watching these all the time as a kid, I cant wait.

[@daemonnexusknight]

I love this as I missed seeing Dave and Matt in regular BatReps. This was so much fun to watch. :) And yes, best of 3!

[@athionveretta6204]

The chemistry you guys have on screen is still the best I've ever seen from this channel in all the years I've been watching. Love seeing you guys play a quality entertaining match!

[@francescotrunfio493]

Best of three!! Thank you guys for this!

[@SteveArnold43]

Genestealers also reroll 1's to wound, and the broodlord forgot his Hypnotic Gaze lol so the berserkers should have been -1 to hit.

[@TauShasla]

need a series of Dave dueling the other MW Gaming staff

[@Steinerman1]

Only a few minutes into the vid, and already reminded why I love watching your content so much. The banter is fantastic :)

[@Gormfeld]

You guys always have the coolest battlemaps. Sometimes they're a little too busy for the purpose of a clear, concise video, but y'all nailed this one. Credit where credit is due.

[@Paranormal-Stupidity]

This game looked like so much fun. 10th edition is looking really good. Thanks for sharing!! Definitely going to need a rematch!

[@shonitv]

This was great. It's so good to see the both of you playing together.

[@dentkort2046]

Man, that was awesome. BLOOD FOR THE BLOOD GOD! SKULLS FOR THE SKULL THRONE!

[@fletch0307]

I remember watching you two back in school. Working on homework or waiting for bed time thinking about how cool it would be to have a 40k army one day. This was such a pleasure to watch and sent me on a bit of walk down memory lane the last ten years while working on some Heavy Intercessors surrounded my by hobby collection. Genuinely, thank you both.

[@honey_badger1450]

This was fantastic! Matt and Dave have a Mac and Dennis (always sunny) aura about them. Their rematch should be dayman vs nightman.

[@Pliskin42]

Yes! I missed you two playing so much! The energy you two bring is what this hobby is all about! I whole heartedly support multiple rematches! I want more!

[@faiflowright01]

Great fight! I love watching World Eaters vs anything videos. Eightbound have a 6" aura btw. "Beacons of Rage (Aura): While a friendly World Eaters unit is within 6" of this unit, each time a model in that unit makes a melee attack, re-roll a Wound roll of 1. If that attack targets a unit that is Below Half-strength, you can re-roll the Wound roll instead." I think this applies to the Eightbound as well.

[@potatexcite8114]

"My job is to out think you while you punch me" 😂

[@MsWubwub]

"Don't skip ahead with the spike graph." Lmao okaaaay fine

[@GDWargames]

Dave vs Matt a return to the good old days, hope you keep doing them one a month would be good

[@TheAlaskanfrog]

Guys seriously, you two playing got me into battle reports forever ago. We need you to regularly play each other. It's the best

[@LexTenebris]

Okay, watching you two play is a good time. I would like more of that, please.

[@linuszullig8427]

Love the way you‘re really playing for fun and an epic battle and not just playing competitive

[@timperkins4547]

It was very nice of you to let Dave have that, Matt

[@daniellambert1217]

Been a long time since there`s been a batrep rep of this calibre , great fun to watch and a great reminder to us old fans of why we got hooked in the first place . brilliant job guys !!

[@fernandozavaletabustos205]

Great video as always!

[@datheavyguyiguess5754]

This brings me back to the old 5th edition battle reports I love it

[@johnford1717]

Dave is like a real life Mac from its always sunny

[@garyarmitage9359]

Excellent Video! Feeling better about 10th edition! KUDOS!

[@omegon3286]

Matt the Hive Tyrant looks great to me. BRAVO!!!

[@andrewloveridge6358]

Dave looks amazing. Way to go man. Edit: got to the end of the video. Best of three required.

[@thashadowspawn]

I have waited many years to see brotha Dave Beat Matt's Tyranids and it was worth the Wait. That was a funny epic battle and I enjoyed learning things. Cheers Guys and cheers to the rest of the Miniwargamers Crew! Aloha! Shalom!

[@martinlarsen9530]

I love that Matt takes the time to play with new players like this Dave guy, who clearly has no clue about warhammer rules. Such a nice intro game where Matt teaches the rules as they play - looks like it will take a lot of work to teach Dave the rules, especially for the shouting phase, ahem I mean shooting phase. :-)

[@Jordynjat]

This was amazing! BLOOD FOR THE BLOOD GOD!

[@anthonysauls1446]

I missed Matt in batreps! I missed Dave in batreps! I missed Matt vs Dave in batreps! You guys need to play more in general but also love you playing each other!

[@stax6092]

Definitely need to see more Dave vs. Matt Bat-Reps. Just a heads-up if the Rhino's had Combi-weapons not Combi-Bolters they are anti-infantry 4+ meaning they wound all infantry on 4s no matter what.

[@lovinmusic500]

Best of 3! Dave Matt matches make me feel like a kid again.

[@ludomancersvault5518]

Good job, Dave. Don't sell yourself short. You played well.

[@DrCrazyPhenom]

Best of 8, I know it doesnt make sense but angry boi would like it

[@goreborn6045]

Carnage incarnate! I can only feel the rage and blood energy in the air!🔥🔥🔥

[@roberttaylor7136]

Absolutely love watching Dave and Matt play!

[@Lord_Aussem]

Love Matt and Dave! Super fun battle report!

[@dylan9025]

Love to see the lads going at it!

[@Alarmresistant]

Definitely needs to harvest more nid skulls. REMATCH!

[@jonny_kung]

Convincing Dave not to interrupt with the 8-bound against the warriors...lol! That was easy!

[@TheKlawwGang888]

What I subscribed for all those years ago for!

[@824nickh]

These are the bat reps I missed!!! Matt and Dave are the reason I got back into the hobby nearly a decade ago.

[@sgtsheriff]

Anyone else get absolutely shafted with an advert as soon as Dave turned off the lights? Thought it was a visual effect until I seen the random boyo shaving. Also finally Dave in a battle report! Only took his primarch too finally show up for him to win a game against Matt.

[@marcbowling6451]

This makes me exceptionally happy

[@seriphmichael]

Hearing him giggle when they are explaining the mission was funny as hell for no real reason. "Hehe... Objectives..." XD

[@seanreusing4409]

Finally! I get Dave with ANGRON! at long last! BLOOD FOR THE BLOOD GOD! SKULLS FOR THE SKULL THRONE!

[@kalnir0]

After all these years! Gratz Dave!!

[@HereticDave40k]

Best of 3 sounds Awesome! Gr8 game guys!

[@BigBirdOfChange]

Absolutely BEST OF THREE!!!

[@johnread6730]

the classic roots of MWG you guys should play more together :)

[@vasilisgorgogiannis5517]

Yeess Dave heard my request i told them: "have Dave to do a batrep with World Eaters" and then it happened and Khorne became happier that day. The blood god was praised!! Thank you!! Yeah u should definately have more games together.

[@REDN0AK]

man that brings me back looooooong time :D

[@MrIsitnotmate]

this makes me really happy

[@antrabuian]

We've missed you guys

[@mesa069]

loved this batrep, havent wathed MWG in a while, but DAve x Matt is too good to pass up! BEST OF THREE!

[@1xoACEox1]

Good to see Dave playing full faction World Eaters. What a time to be alive. Genestealers with 2 wounds can get in the bin though how dumb.

[@toportime]

"Lets have a discussion" ... shortest discussion ever.. both sides yelling "DIE!"

[@dreaxuslordofdecay]

Yes! More Matt vs Dave!

[@cameronhaynes9983]

I'm 6 minutes in to this video and I am LIVING for Dave's "friendly aggression"

[@andrewbakescakes9684]

Matt and Dave playing Tyranids and Chaos again. Everything is well in the universe.

[@2h4d0wDK]

Hey Matt, about the "On Objectives" movement, you're allowed to move onto objectives as of the 10th edition rule book in the Leviathan box iirc. So it doesn't have to be a house rule anylonger!

[@knightofthefallen7416]

Dave and Matt games are always my most favourite games. Rematch please. Don't care who wins, just love you 2 playing together.

[@Frozenkoldfury]

I just want to see more Dave. So yes, best of 3 please!

[@cody1805]

I figured this Hollywood matchup would be locked in the vault.

[@MisterCram]

Dave really is a manifestation of chaos lol. Guys a nut 😅

[@Lamb6000]

This is special ! 🎉🎉

[@WilhelmScreamer]

God, a blast from the past

[@GrimmTheMadKing]

MORE DAVE AND MATT BATREPS! ALL THE DAVE AND MATT BATREPS!

[@stainsbykingsby1889]

Me: “A 2k game in an hour?!” *Sees World Eaters Turn 1* “Oh.” 😂🤣 Such a fun watch guys :) we need more of you both together! I get that you’re both horrendously busy gents but make it happen. 🤣

[@arnodafe]

The dynamic......you guys need to fight more 😂🔥

[@monkeyswithshoes308]

"You know the best part about having the camera? Gonna cut you off." Ha!
