Phew. Already on Game 5. Hard to believe the Start Collecting Deathmatch series has really been going for 12 years now.
I know, they're flying by.
The final match will be Guy vs the Twins
"talking" about that.... When are we going to see the next battle ??! - Mr. Midwinter Minis?
I know! I can't wait to see what 10th Edition Tzeench looks like.
Huh? 12 years?
“Everybody is dead, everybody is dead Dave” awesome game guys, loved it.
probs my favorite bit
Even kachanski?
T'was funny to be sure! But how come only nine of his squad could fire cause of line of sight, yet 12 could be killed ? for sure those 3 were out of line of sight... ?
@@bergeaadland6648 rules say that the whole unit gets shot at, but not all of them can shoot
@@fatboy158 Sounds to me then, being in cover is a bad idea?
Wow Ahriman kicked so much ass with the spells. What unlucky rolls for the necrons too.
These are my favourite battle report videos on RUclips. They aren’t 2 hours long, they explain every action and phase which is helpful for noobs like me, the humour is actually humorous and appropriate to the context. Most importantly, Guy is just a really likeable person, and his guests are all well spoken, mature and just as likeable. I have yet to find another channel that checks all these boxes.
Agreed I watch play on tabletop RUclips channel which is good but I much prefer these because they are a lot more beginner friendly
My issue is length and these solved it perfectly
Oh no! I just started getting back into 40k, and I was SO HYPED to see all the starter sets pop off.
What happened to this series? I was legit enjoying it. Painting the blood on the arena floor after matches was just excellent.
From some of his other videos, it sounds like Covid happened to this series.
I was sure that saying no to command protocols and splitting the army would kill robot, space, egyptian zombies but I didn't expect to see them wiped out this easily.
This was pretty sad to watch tbh
Should've run Szarekhan for the 5++ against mortals and 4+ deny stratagem. Mephrit is terrible cause all is dust negates the -1 AP. Should've used command protocols. Should've veiled the immortals behind the scarabs so they can soak up mortal wounds from doombolt and smite which targets the closest model.
To be fair, im gonna blame dice for this one. Guy really needed a good shooting phase early on and it just didnt happen.
@@lewtes52 nah. He didnt use Command Protocols, he suicided his immortals, and he chose a useless dynasty. He just played pretty bad this time. And his opponent knew his army pretty well
A lot of people talking about codex creep like it's the only problem. Whilst the TSons had a very strong alpha strike, Guy moved up very far fast, which made it easy for the TSons to get their psychic powers off, as well as their shots and their melee, giving all three to an army on turn 1 that can do all three well is not a good idea. Keeping closer to the chest and getting to use the veil of darkness, however he was baited out which led to the very devastating alpha strike. Necrons have suffered from creep but they are by no means bottom tier and are still placing in top 4s as recently as last month. Sometimes you have to accept that the problems are not in the dice or the army but in the choices you make as the player. TSons aren't a good matchup for necrons due to all is dust, so playing cautiously and not leaving yourself open goes a long way.
This. I played Necrons like Orks, haha
@@MidwinterMinis very true
@@MidwinterMinis it's a very entertaining series, but you have put yourself at a bit of a disadvantage.
Although you'll know some armies well, with others you'll be winging it and all of your opponents, at the very least, are going to be familiar with their armies.
@@MidwinterMinis rerolling damage 1 attacks against rubricks was a big mistake
@@MidwinterMinis I still haven't forgiven this series for how awful you guys played the Tyranids, y'all did them so dirty :'(
The Changer of Ways approves this video... unless he changed his mind again.
I oddly have two horses in this race, I'm starting a necron army via an imperium subscription, and I got the Sons half of my friend's Hexfire box.
Two great choices. I collect necrons but am looking at TS for my third army.
The drukhari video inspired me to buy a box, although I couldn't get the start collecting box they used sadly
i misread the last part as "the friends half of my son's hexfire box"
cool that you and your son both play 40k, but i didn't know that FRIENDS were added as a faction. man, 9th ed is really weird…
@@soupalex honestly, GW needs to nerf the Ross HQ. His special ability, “Be there for you”, is just too strong with how much it buffs friendly units.
@@adambaryliuk3393 ross's buffs are ridiculous, sure, but joey has the relic "every item of clothing chandler owns", giving a 2+/2++ with rerolls AND feel no pain. could he BE any more OP!?
So I guess we'll never actually get to see this series resolved... sad times as I was really enjoying this.
I love the Start Collecting Deathwatch battle reports! Waiting for the Astra
Any updates / plans on this series? I take it it has been discontinued?
Was honestly enjoying it quite a bit as I can't sit through 2h battle reports.
same! I hope they continue this
The next MWM video will be one of these I think... he said in his last video that it "might return soon".
I was NOT expecting the brutality of that first turn! Jeezy Cripes!
Great battle - I'm looking forward to the victor's performance in the Semi-Finals!
Woooooo! Very excited, I just desided to start a necron army so I'm going to be cheering for d'em bot bois!
Really enjoying these little bite sized battle reports!
Just a side note, don't scarabs auto wound on 6s to hit? Don't think it would have changed much but was just a side note.
Yes they do 🙂
That’s a reoccurring issue I see with this series. They call it competitive but keep forgetting rules.
Yes, missed that, would have been an extra 3 wounds, but the Rubrics would have had a 2+ save still. Best case scenario, I would have killed 1 more, thankfully not game changing at all.
@@matthewcampbell3146 Then stop watching.
@@matthewcampbell3146 it's almost as if these are normal human beings.
Guy actually shouldn't have conceded at the end, because he did still have a very slight chance to win.
A vehicle in combat can still freely target any unit in range, if it has multiple weapons. However it can only fire the weapons at distant targets if it first destroys all models in engagement range before it comes time to fire those weapons.
He could have fired the 10 shot weapon at the rubrics, and with some lucky rolling, it would have been possible to kill them all. Unlikely, but worth a shot.
He would then have been free to shoot his second weapon at the tzaangors. Because the opponent set them up in the conga line formation, he would only have needed to kill a single tzaangor, and then a further 4 would have been removed due to unit coherency rules.
That would have taken the tzaangors off the middle objective and given guy the lead on VPs.
This is all pretty unlikely to happen, but you should never throw away a victory when there is still any chance to win. Sometimes luck will be on your side. For this reason I never concede unless I'm absolutely certain I definitely can't win.
Scarabs wound automatically on a 6 to hit. Probably wouldn't have made any difference against a 2+ save, but you never know.
The lord should have also given the warriors reroll 1s
Using self-destruction would make a difference i believe
Immortals dying of Mortal Wounds.
Truly amazing sorcery!
Awesome I really enjoyed playing that game. Thanks for having me on the channel Guy. All is dust
"Thats the biggest sigh of relief of my life"
Penny sat in the corner soon after giving birth to twins. - _ -
Cool pfp
@@AppleMan6809 why thank you
*Insert Simpsons's "Stop, Stop! He's Already Dead" scene here*
I got real worried with that cheese secondary the necrons had
Cant wait for my Tau boys to get absolutely annihilated by Admech.
9th edition codex's are crazy. It's like watching a different game from 8th
I haven't played since 7th so I've got no idea what's going on
@@anenglishprat1774 tau etereal be like: we brought you the greater good
skitarii: A C C E S S D E N I E D (loads radium carabine)
I still think they have a chance, T'au SC is a pretty strong box. Then again, AdMech's statlines, weaponry, and stratagems are all stronger across the board so...eh, I'm still rooting for my blue goat boys.
Guess we’ll see if the admech get to use their canticles and dogmas, or if it’ll get passed up like command protocols did in this game :/
@@jonaswaever protocols are way weaker and really wouldn't help Necrons this game that much
you had me up at 2am to watch this when it released...worth it
Love that we’re getting another one of these so soon! Keep up the good work!
This was awesome. I love these faster paced games. Fantastic video production. Looking forward to the next video. Keep up the good work.
That bit with the Soulreaper cannon reminds me of that scene from Dredd, the one with the miniguns ripping through walls.
Good movie
The editing is well done and subtle changes to the battlefield are amazing. This is a great video
After that first turn I feel like I should pick up Thousand Sons
Pick what you like because of models and lore. Not what is good at the time. The meta always changes pretty often, the models do not. I love necrons. They will be great again sometime in the future
@@MrCaryk necroms are still great fym?
@@demiliomason1565 They seem alright. I'd say they're middle of the pack.
@@demiliomason1565 not in the competitive scene. Fym? Go play against top ad mech drukari grey knights tons and space marines and see how good they are
@@MrCaryk Necrons still place top 5 in most tournaments. This was a really unfavourable matchup mixed with horrible luck.
So glad this series is back! One of my faves!
That thousands sun first turn was brutal... poor necrons
Wow, that Necron secondary objective is pretty powerful in small battles, isn't it? Especially against elite armies that can't field many units.
Purge the Vermin in 500 point games is quite good yeah, you'll probably get 10VP on it.
I miss Guy's battle reports, so entertaining :' (
I’m really enjoying these start collecting games. Awesome work!
Any hope the series will continue? When I was quarantined they were what kept me somewhat sane
Thanks for the birthday video Midwinter Minis! Really enjoying the series.
I absolutely love these battle reports!
I am rediscovering my passion for Warhammer and I’m surprised at myself for how nail-bitingly exciting I find the Start Collecting Deathmatches!💯
Good job!
P.S.
The wear and tear of the battlefield is a very nice touch!
Great idea for a series. Nice to see these small fast paced games.
Please keep this series going!
To everyone whining about codex creep, this would have played out identically using the old book as well. Guy shot at guys with a 2+ who would have always had a 2+ only difference would have been two more dead marines due to less wounds but everything else pretty much could have been on the old book. Guy just ran his crons up like he was playing an assault army, simple mistake, not a loss due to codex creep.
Really like this tournament! Hope you post some more videos soon!
Finally! Really missed this series. :)
So, how did the first turn play out for the Immortals? ....to shreds you say. And how are the Warriors taking this? ...to shreds you say.
Great fights! Always waiting them most of all.
"Tzeentch betrayed me"
Just.
As.
Planned.
Midwinter minis is the one who got me into warhammer
Same!!
Love this concept as a series!
your 6s from scarabs will auto wound...also, warriors can reroll 1s with lord nearby
I was gonna comment on this as well...thanks!
Whoo! I have been anxiously awaiting another SC Battle! Both armies look great and I can't wait to see what happens!
This series is incredible just watch em all. But where are the other 10 battles? Please continue:finish this series!!!! I am new to WH and need this in my life.
These are awesome! Need the next matches! My binging must continue!!!
Great match and the edits were on point and really helpful great video!
The Red Dwarf reference made me actually laugh out loud. Great game!
This was one of the most single sided and sad games I've ever seen of 9th, that codex creep is a real killer
There was a bunch of lucky roles from the TS and really unlucky roles from the NC
@@mattlevens6382 lucky or not I doubt necrons were going to be able to push anywhere near enough damage or saves to survive a second turn against ahriman or the rubric psycher, granted guy didn't make the best plays or positioning, only chance for necrons was the secondary
Did you see the Drukari vs GSC game? Lol
@@jfunderburk1989 honestly... gsc was barely an army in 8th and to pair them with one of the strongest armies of 9th at the time, my mind completely got rid of that game
Codex creep?
Nice vid and fun game. Those Thousand Sons are pretty wicked. Keep up this series, it neat. 👍
Really loving these baller reports, so keep them coming!
love these start collecting box vids
Great video! As always!
Let’s go ! I love these start collecting death matches
I love these Start Collecting battles so much ^_^
That music gets me so pumped
my favourite content & series on RUclips
the custom map is so dope! Its actually a brilliant idea.
Another great video Guy! Can wait until Death by Dice Vol. 2 drops. The Start Collecting Deathmatch theme plays in my head at least once a day when I'm getting into some intense gaming moments
We can't wait to release it! Thanks for the support.
*Rattle 'em boys!*
* Skeletor Laughing *
Wow what a great game - very close! I loved the spooky music and graphics with the Thousand Suns psychic powers and Necrons veil of darkness
First one of these I've watched - just about the right amount of time (for me)! Confirms the reasoning behind my love of Spcae Hulk (quick, low model count and easy to play) - enjoyed it - will probably catch another of your DM reports soon - thanks Guy!
"Tzeench has betrayed me,..."
Good summary of Tzeench.
Another great video! Thanks :) 1000s brutal as hell, can’t wait for their loose against orks))
Loving the effects!!!
the fight between ahriman and the overlord was so epic
i could just imagine ahriman casting an inferno of warpflames on that overlord only to notice him coming out of the flames untouched walking towards ahriman with glowing green eyes.
Then ahriman tries to charge the lord flying with his disc at full speed covered in lightings
Ahriman pierce the torso of the lord with his scepter stopping him dead and the lights in the lord's eyes vanish
But then the lord reactivates again and in a single strike decapitates ahriman wich body fall to the ground only to turn into dust when it touches the dirt.
Without a sound the lord turn towards the rubik marines with the clear intent to destroy those dusty posers and to show them who is the real space egyptian
and only to be obliterated by bolter fire...
@@flaviomonteiro1414 yeah that was a bit anticlimactic
Midwinter! Please do this series again with the new combat patrols.
Seconded. Though, it might take awhile for all the combat patrols to come out.
Love this series hope you do one for combat patrols in the future
Thats a brutal turn 1! Great vid!!!
I live for the funky intro music. Also, those thousand sons look goddamn fantastic.
Enjoying these games. Never played 40k so this a good intro.
Happy to see the deathmatches back. 2 factions I'm interested in.
WOOT WOOT. Way to go boys. Great video.
Love this series. I paint a lot but don’t play, so these are entertaining and teach a thing or two about playing 40k
I love this series
We need more Deathmatches!
Guy: *Uses Veil of Darkness*
My brain: *Pillar Men theme*
This is one of the most fun series i have watched on youtube. The Quality of the Video, The Commentary, The length...almost everything is perfect....but where is the rest ? :( There are a lot of matches missing
I love these smaller battle reports, but would also love to see you do full size battle reports!
Thought the Necrons did really well given their no Command Protocol handicap - good fun video as always!
The hype is real
The tournament continues!
WOHOOOOOOOO NEW DEATHMATCH :)))
Great video!
Red Dwarf reference? You get a like, sir.
Red dwarf reference, damn. Great video!
Top tier content as per Guy
Hooray for the Sons of Magnus! I have to say, this batrep cements my view of Tzaangors. Not only are they ugly, but they don't do anything.
Those thousands sons look awesome
Thanks man! they're a real pain for me to paint the trim is soul destroying
This battle shall be remembered as 'The battle of the cease and desist order'.
beautiful painting on the TS, but omg those undrilled barrels
Hopefully we get another episode soon!
Jeez, that was brutal!
YES! Today is a blessed day
BRING THIS BACK 😭😭😭😭
