You can't even talk cuz the devs are looking out for the pussies scared of words 😂 on top of that they know the backlash from folks like me I'll give to the main stream bullshit factions
Always remember it's a game. If you're stressing playing it or not enjoying it, it's not worth your time. Playing a lower tier faction or with meme units is also a good ego defense against losing :^)
Thats a good point. This video is for people that just want to win and get better by winning etc etc. There are people that just play for the sake of it and get better. Playing = getting better regardless
This was amazing. Love the rambling and the information. I have yet to try multiplayer, Tons of campaigns hours in the game but have been a bit nervous to try this out. One day. Thanks for the content
I think this is really helpful, not only more efficient but also better for learning the game than if you gave out good builds for every faction in every matchup. Method 2: Creating a Core-Build to be modified depending on matchup is probably the way to go when learning a faction. Sometimes i also just feel like cheesing in LB with very one-sided builds (with very mixed results), but thats not how things should work and not the way to go if i was playing to win every game :D
Building onto your point- if you're bringing a unit that counters something, but that something doesn't exist on the enemy roster, it's probably a good idea to rethink whether you still need that unit. Dwarves are such a good example, because let's say you're fighting dwarves and your normal build has a lot of anti-large units that you normally take as a generalist, well dwarves have practically no large units so maybe there's a more effective answer to what the dwarves are going to bring. Or you're fighting Khorne/Slannesh/Nurgle/Counts and you're bringing a bunch of shielded units, there are very few units that those shields are even going to apply to in the first place, and it's very unlikely that they'll bring enough to make those shields worth it (if they bring any at all!). Or you're fighting Ogres and you've got a bunch of anti-infantry, you can probably nix a lot of it and replace with anti-large variants because imo the gnoblars are fairly easy to deal with (though you still need to respect them). Or you normally take Thorek Ironbrow on his anvil of doom to give that tasty miscast to enemy casters, but you're fighting Khorne, then save the cash by going on foot.
All jokes aside, great guide. I can tell a lot of thought went into not only what made a good build, but how to present it in a way that would be consistently helpful for newer players.
This lends itself to a 3 part starter guide. Learn core mechanics from this, watch video to pick your faction, watch guide on how to use the units of your faction. Keep p with patches and there you go: decent results that let you have fun.
Great video man, been looking for something like this since basically WH2 came out, closest I got was those Felkon builds you could download, just general advice like this is very underappreciated, don't be afraid to do more like this, will definitely watch
"what scary units are on the enemy roster(x) , what kills those enemy units (y) and what kills my counter to them? (z)" Ask yourself that 3, maybe 4 times, or until you can no longer think of anything new. Obviously it's far from a perfect method and combos with synergies you're unaware of will blindside the fuck out of you from time to time.
2 different ways in case 1 goes wrong. Like enemy cavalry? Maybe some handgunners and some halberdiers, that way if the enemy has a flying unit that suicide dives your ranged, your halberds are still there for you
Its funny, i've been watching guides like these and following these videos and I've learnt so much about how to make good armies, but I've never ever been confident enough to try multiplayer, no way. Reason is that I know I'll get blotched because my micro sucks so much
Easiest: Grand Cathay, dwarfs and tomb kings. High leadership/undead, want to play defensive so you dont move much. Easy but also aggressive factions: Norsca, Warriors of Chaos. Very simple playstyle of grab a mixture of melee units and run at the enemy. Bring 2-4 ranged cavalry just in case
I like how deamons arent even a choice for you why, its not to the mainstream factions which is why there trash and i feel like im the only player of slaneesh lol
Yo, this is actually giving me the confidence to try out at actually learning Land Battle Multiplayer. Maybe I'll see ya in the Discord some time.
go for it! the quick battle player matching system is real bad
To all of those saying they are nervous to try out Multiplayer: Don't be, nobody will judge you for being new, even if you know absolutely nothing.
Except for the DW and HE they are very judgmental folks 😉
@@coolumbrella4376 they mostly judge you for the faction you play and not your skill though

The mad rat did it. He made an army build video that works for any patch!
great, informative video, thank you!
This video is good and all, but it gets perfect with the Dragonborn soundtrack from Skyrim.

hubbus said feral mammoths are functional , LETS GOOO

Got it, full melee rush every time.
Hubby this is awesome
Thanks for the video help new player like me
*laughs in max cap helstorm rocket batteries*
Let’s go
Great Video ! Just when you say « you need something to deal with it twice », do you mean 2 units or 2 groups of units ?
2 different ways in case 1 goes wrong.
Like enemy cavalry? Maybe some handgunners and some halberdiers, that way if the enemy has a flying unit that suicide dives your ranged, your halberds are still there for you
@@HumanBoyYesYesoh I see, thank a lot. Btw do you have an in-depth video on every counter for each type ?
not yet@@leros6484
@@HumanBoyYesYesthank you very much for your time. You’re definitely one of the best UA-camr of the community

Do you have any good starting factions? Not too complicated, but decent enough to pack a mean punch
Easiest: Grand Cathay, dwarfs and tomb kings. High leadership/undead, want to play defensive so you dont move much.
Easy but also aggressive factions: Norsca, Warriors of Chaos. Very simple playstyle of grab a mixture of melee units and run at the enemy. Bring 2-4 ranged cavalry just in case
I mean if there wasn’t a mention of the penta bloaty boy meta is it even a build guide?
Penta-bloat is prologue level information. Not even a whisper.
As a man who played exlusively Khorne Minotaur Spam for my first 3 months of playing LB, I approve of this message.
I like how deamons arent even a choice for you why, its not to the mainstream factions which is why there trash and i feel like im the only player of slaneesh lol
