They Have 2 of the Best - Warriors vs Dark Elves // Total War: WARHAMMER 3

[@plantman333]

That one unit of forsaken, absolutely put in work, tore through a sad spear, deleted two units of darkshards, which where the De answer against kholek and the calvary. Mvps in my book

Always a pleasure to see elite monogods cavalry shine.

[@Pilgrym52]

Hellstrider taking a 1/4 hp off those cold one knights, holding just long enough for the rot knights to clean house and even shrug off a dragon. Love to see the slaves to darkness out perform higher tier units, "For your gifts!".

[@fcon2123]

That chaos build was dirty! Granted they ran against a DE build that played exactly into their strengths, but it was still an impressive win.

[@sageer2585]

“Played into their strengths” Bro that DE player was about as useful as the games AI 😂 Dark riders caught by skull crushers? The worst infantry formation of all time? Barely using the main piece of his army , the Medusa? This one was awful. Was like watching an early campaign battle.

@@sageer2585 The Darkshard going into melee with full ammo was tragic.

[@sageer2585]

@@JohnSmith-qb9ex I think it was on par with him putting the bloodwrack out beyond his lines, getting one shot off and being forced to slowly turn around and be of zero use. I been posting banger replays in his discord and he shows us one where the dude basically seems AFK 😂

[@hlb99]

Gotta agree, the fight was awful lol ​@@sageer2585

Sometimes I see a battle and I have no idea how the two armies cost the same amount of gold

[@shiggydiggy6847]

Kholek does not have collision attacks. Dragon ogre shaggoths in general have a very bad tendency to t-pose instead of attacking in melee on top of being pretty pricey. Kholek isn't a complete meme, but I find it very hard to rationalize picking a lord that isn't Archaon, Azazel, Sarthorael or a nurgle/tzeentch marked generic caster on WoC. On the topic of how good of a faction WoC is I'd rate them lower than all monogod factions sans nurgle. Despite their roster being technically the largest in the game, it is mostly infantry variants with no use cases. Although the inclusion of bloodbeasts might have made WoC better than slaanesh since it does give them a relatively cheap mobile AP option which they've been desperately in need of since forever.

kholek suffers from being old. in tabletop he would pulverise giants, has comparable tankiness to greater unclean one (and much better than a giant), is faster than heavy cav. But in this game he doesnt even have 9k hp (giant has 12, GUO 15??) and without items he has 600 weapon strenght. not bad but certainly could be better. not to mention he lost 24 AoE meele defence he had in wh2 and now had +24meele attack and 25% dmg. which is okay buff but certainly worse abiltiy than 24 AoE meele defence. For the same cost one could take archaon, unti with barely less dmg, 2k less hp, much better strength, much smaller model, with 2 amazing aoe buffs. And constand immunity to psychology. and is a mage at the same time. archaon outclasses kholek so incredibly hard its sad.

[@rubz1390]

Guess Dahv doesn't agree with Human Boy's tierlists.

[@Weberkooks]

Unless they just added collision attacks to kholek recently he doesnt have it

[@bensagnella757]

im not very knowledgeable with total war multiplayer. are hellstriders any good? i feel like they always loose against every other cav

[@Ahalgana]

Pretty overcosted for their stats I would say. They can't really stand up against other factions' heavy melee cav and chaos warhounds do anti-missile cav and backline harassment better for much less.

[@McBlue117]

The way they were used in the vid is a good way to use them (catching higher tier cav to let your high tier cav engage with an advantage) other than that Ahal summed it up perfectly.

[@leonardbrazil5497]

Really wished they would change the skullcrusher models, it Dosent make sense for them to be chaos warriors while chaos knights are chosen. Lore wise there multiple leagues higher in rank, chosen should be the riders not chaos warriors.

Bro show us 2v2 3v3 4v4 please?
