Man, that one unit of Chosen was down to 47 models from fighting black orcs when you dropped that fat heal on them. They didn't lost another model the rest of the game. I love Nurgle Chosen so much.
Chosen of Nurgle are in fact the tankiest ones. Poison lowers damage by 15% so it is literally the same as 15% Ward Save when you think about it... as long as you are fighting the thing that is damaging you of course :)
whip chosen get poison too pretty sure, plus the phys resist of the mark. that’s why they’re generally considered the most durable. on WoC you can bring them with festus for healing, actually somewhat common to see 3 + festus.
Awesome to see greater daemons in play! You mentioned around the middle of the battle that the GS would be better off with a more dakka- or skirmish-focused build. How would Nurgle try to counter that? I would think the bubonic boys don’t have a whole lot that can really effectively catch and kill a bunch of skirmish cav or ranged units, even if they can sort of weather that storm with a bunch of shielded infantry and healing blobs.
What a nice fight! I usually learn a lot from these videos where you play and comment at the same time (no one better at that, I think). Keep up the good work!
@ 2:29 in the video: Nice. :D They Buffed UNCLE FURUNCLE. they gave him more uses of his spells. back to 2 each. but they took 1 use away from 1 spell. and gave him a 3rd spell. :) i'm really happy about this. Having only 1 use of a bound spell for Greater demons. made them far worse in my opinion. So I'm glad they buffed them again. :)
i LOVE when big erect ROR units get some daylight. Sooo tired of the cheap unit spam and "meta" stuff. Turin, i hope you keep bringing cover like this!
If CA could give out good missile resist, to single entities. so that Small arms missile fire, is not the most effective way to deal with them. That you actually have to bring anti large. that would change things.
That seems like one of the major downsides of Domination. Having two cheap units almost always better than one expensive one because they can contest two points at the same time.
Great composition, very entertaining battle. The dude countered your units well without countering your tactics. As you said; he should've gone more mobile to avoid your debuffs and AOE.
this is why u bring the foot against nurgle, this set up is pretty meta atm and also prob better to send the giants after the chosen etc. since u can actually kill models and they can't heal that back, the nurgle death ball can only really hold one obj so u just kill everything that's not big and play the other 2
I think if the GS player just sat his skirmish cav behind his lines to shoot the GUO that would have been a better use of them. Other than that he fought well, gg!
I love seeing you make Nurgle work :D I know they are disliked but they are my favorite wh3 faction. It's so cool how you play them thematically in multiplayer!
Does Wurzaag provide anything in a fight like this? I don't really think so. All of his spells are tailored for a very different kind of battle, and he's the most expensive Greenskin Lord option, if Azhag doesn't bring his Wyvern. I think that's really swaying the outcome here. Just very little to no value offered from his Lord choice. EDIT: Yea Wuurzag only had 3.8k damage. For how expensive he is that's just pathetic. Might want to think about bringing Azhag against Nurgle, or possibly even mess around with a more generic Lord option.
I'm sorry but to me it seems like he didnt Micro his second Giant at all for a long time... he was basically almost just sitting there not focusing the same target or not even attacking anything for a while. A pity ...
Am I the only one that thinks half of Nurgle's mark makes no sense? +5MD -5MA, why? Melee Defense implies dodging, pairing, and blocking attacks. Seems more like a Slannesh thing. Personally I think a more lorful mark would be Extra health, poison, 10% physical resistance, Fear and -5 speed. Maybe then warriors of chaos might bring a Nurgle unit beside Festus 😂

Sees double giant: TOO FIGHTY!

And a lot of that HP they lost was because their old Uncle Furuncle betrayed them and blasted them with a stream of corruption at like 4:10, Gigachads
@@fallenprince7591 You mean he graced them with Nurgle's gifts.
Chaos knights, chosen and Furuncle in one game? Bro, you are my hero
"Toads are happily engaged"
Good for them, there is someone for everyone i suppose. But i really dont want to attend that wedding.
lol similar sense of humour to me right here. I was thinking the same.
I really love when players try out different stuff like this. It helps maintain a healthy changing meta.
I hope CA continues to reduce the Greater Daemon costs. They're always a ton of fun when they show up in MP. I want to see a Keeper of Secrets meta.
Fiends of slaanesh are also criminally underrated, a fast and furious demonic horde would be so nice though
Keeper is actually good in match ups with not too much shooting
Why not buff a greater daemon? their are literally the biggest baddest non named demonic units in the setting
Games seem so great this patch. The wild double giant and arachnarok spider is so fun.
WE GOT THE UNCLE IN THE HOUSE!

They get melted by ranged units like everything else in this game thanks to CA's fetish for ranged firepower in a game that should be all about melee.

Who decides that?

@@indigo7898 There's no deciding, that's how the game works. Ranged units counter everything.
@@shiroamakusa8075 I think he means who decides it should all be about melee
Holy hell those Chosen T A N K E D

Nurgle stream of corruption is pretty good actually imo.
simply heal through it, the dps is not high enough to outdamage the heals of Festus, fecundaty and fleshy abundance
Rot flies, furies, hounds, Marauder cav... Nurgle has decent options
Endure it and go for caps

You played exceptionally Turin. You had control of the field the whole time regardless of qhat value and points showed.

Oh wow that spider did really well
It was a fun game and unlike anything I had seen Nurgle bring before.
GG!
this is why u bring the foot against nurgle, this set up is pretty meta atm and also prob better to send the giants after the chosen etc. since u can actually kill models and they can't heal that back, the nurgle death ball can only really hold one obj so u just kill everything that's not big and play the other 2
GG! Go Nurgle! I love that Nurgle seems to be doing well now!
Considering that he brought the dreaded Teef Robbers, I suspect the GS player was mostly just having a giggle.
Nurgle not having a single anti-large unit is definitely a problem
Yeah, I love Nurgle to death but that is certainly frustrating. I also dont think they have any charge reflection.
what a rad match
I think if the GS player just sat his skirmish cav behind his lines to shoot the GUO that would have been a better use of them. Other than that he fought well, gg!
Cool nurgle plays
If you cut the second cultist, you could give the other a horse so he can hold objectives and chase off the fast units.
Turin we need an Immorten Joe bounty for using one of each pump wagon and Grom the Paunch
Been using furuncle in a few matchups underrated,. In the right matchups can be an anchor late game.
more nurgle please!
I love seeing you make Nurgle work :D I know they are disliked but they are my favorite wh3 faction. It's so cool how you play them thematically in multiplayer!
Great video!
How does one get his campaign Daemon Prince to show up in multiplayer battles?
You have to use the lord loading option in a MP lobby, can't be used for ranked/tourneys tho, only casual!
Why dont demonspew see more play as nurgle? dont they have a -5 melee attack buff for the blob fight?
Try them out, this might be a good idea. I think Nurgle Forsaken overall are really nice in some matchups
Is it cloud of flies? Or an unique debuff? Some nurgle units already have cloud of flies
When are you going to do another Faction Alliance tournament? They were great!
Can we get some land battles?
Tomorrow!
If the Chaduncle + Kugath bounty is My 600 lb Life, would Uncle and Festus be My 400 lb Life 🤔
Turin, I am a philistine: what is this "Bronzodia" that you boomers speak of?

slaanesh chosen might be a bit more tanky than nurgle chosen.... yes, but why?
Don't Nurgle's followers also have green skins?
WAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAGH
any greenskin player worth there salt knows to bring double giant vs nurgle shit we wish we could bring 4 lol
Why don’t you just always bring double giant against Nurgle?
I'm sorry but to me it seems like he didnt Micro his second Giant at all for a long time... he was basically almost just sitting there not focusing the same target or not even attacking anything for a while. A pity ...
