As a genestealers player "Well that's 300 points that does nothing" is a line im very used to saying
Nobody narrates 40k in 40 minutes like the one and only JT
amen
While I agree, Tycho can get pretty close imo
The BEST!!!
For us English folk - JT is our Gary Lineker & PlayOn is our Match of the Day 😂 Perfection!
@@heyritchard the MOTD intro theme wouldn't quite get me in the grim dark mood hahaha far too cheery!
As someone who's thinking of start playing/hobbying this game, it was super refreshing to see "not-state-of-art" painted armies.
Felt this way too haha
Thats whats so fun! You make your minis as good as you want them to look personally i want mine to look badass but anyone can do what they want like The Emperor when he was about to have his way with the galaxy’s cheeks once the Age of Strife concluded
Me too. That's honestly my one trepidation about the game. I feel like I could achieve a basic "battle ready" at the best. But some examples of "battle ready" are also intimidating.
@@adamtheninjasmith2985 RUclips Battle ready is really Parade ready mostly. Everything is shaded and highlighted and super neatly done. I can’t image anyone expects that standard to play.
Broo! I was so worried and then I watched someone attending a tournament...
I'm putting in way more effort lol. No longer am worried
Always immensely pleased to see GSC played competitively.
as an GSC player, they are fucking hard to play, they are abit to expensive and im tired of playing with kelemoph..
@@numseprut319 fair criticisms all
GSC player here, I disagree. I think we end up having really great matchups into a lot of the top tier army at the moment. Tournament results have been great as well. I’ve been making top 20s in Majors with them. Just needs more representation to shake the meta.
I’ve just got into 40K, I love the lore and aesthetic of GSC. Though I’ve been told not to play with them, which makes me want to more. Any thoughts or tips for a new player?
@@WZKD. Whoever told you not to play with them is a bad influence on your hobby. GSC are fun! Competition be damned. They’re a thinking army for sure, though, especially with all the planning you do in the list-building phase and the double deployment.
I recommend picking one or two units you like the look of and a Cult that enhances those units’ abilities and damage potential (or that the lore is just too badass for).
I personally will live and die by the Acolyte Hybrids and their Heavy Rock Drills. Anything to get them into combat quickly and safely, or protect them until they can charge, or give them extra attacks. That’s my favorite way to play GSC, but I also like maxxing out the Crossfire play with multiple shooting units of Metamorph flamers and giant bricks of Neophytes with lots of special guns, Achilles Ridgerunners to speed around and entrap desired units, and bikers to gum up the enemy’s charges and enable Crossfire.
I adore this game's battlefield. Always love the close quarters feeling of urban maps.
Always nice seeing the knights of sigismund.
Also that droppod was the true hero blessed by the emperor himself.
I can imagine Big E just pointing at it and saying "Boom"
Reminds me of Lucky 13 from Love Death and Robots. Just barely hanging on until a bunch of enemies crowd around it before going BOOM
"Some people get like emotionally attached to their units...nah, everything is garbage, throw it away."
Me. petting my Trygon. "Don't listen to him."
I'm more of a narrative, fluff, "beer and pretzels" type but I do always appreciate when two just super knowledgeable and practiced gamers go at it. Especially JT adding the commentary thats just does a remarkable job of making sure I dont get lost.
Top tier content as always folks.
Tonite on POT gear: Alex grows four arms and strokes a Ripper Swarm like a bond villain, Gary confuses Faith with Flames as he makes the Salamanders proud with all them Meltas and Steve has gone into a casino to curse all the dice with the Touch of Steve.
brilliant
@@agreensquid7303 thank you
Wooooo
Yeah babeeee that's what I've been waiting for
@@samuelgordon-kerr8133 I'm glad you enjoy these comments mate lol
Yesss! More high level competitive. Super informative and educational.
Really enjoyed this one. Great showcase of each army. Nail biter until the end! 🤟🤓
JT voiceover is what Play-on is about to me! Great game and Narrating.
36:13 -- Watching those terminators and the Emperor's Champion die instantly while accomplishing literally nothing brought back bad memories from when I used to play 40K in high school.
"How could my Emperor's Champion die so quick? I spent eighteen dollars on that..."
Brutal amazing game, as a GSC fan I was on the edge of my seat. Wonderful episode, this is my favorite content from you all, great matched play content, Happy we are getting this matched play content.
Goddamn, watching to veteran tournament players go at it feels like I'm watching a completely different game. I don't mean that as shade to everyone else, but most games always feel like fun times, these guys go at it like life's on the line
I've watched a ton of tour battle reports and i think this is the most evenly matched. Each turn there was so much carnage and so many points, it was impossible to know who was going to win!
D&D has been my only tabletop game. I never realized how badass, massive, and tactical these games are!
What an absolutely amazing game with amazing competitors and as always, an amazing presentation from Play On. Bravo!
This was a great match! It’s especially of interest to me because I play both a Black Templar army and a Genestealer Cults new army I started earlier this year.
The Black Templar army in this video is very different than mine - mostly Firstborn and Relic units, whereas my army is mostly Primaris. I’d like to see how Primaris Black Templars fair against Genestealers with Nephilim rules.
Those mini thumbnails in the corner are so helpful in just absorbing the massive selection of unique minis.
I really want to see the Tau face off against the tyranids
What a great game by 2 phenomenal players! Great attitudes and great plays all around
I love the fun narrative games and boards you guys come up with - I'm narrative player above all else and no one does ti quite like you guys - but I've gotta say, this might be my favorite video you've ever produced. Something about the tension of these two amazing players going at it with you're awesome production value made this really exciting to watch.
11:45 "And they shall know some fear. Just a little bit of fear. Itty bitty bit of fear."
Space marines should not have a moral check it does not make sense
new to the game. didnt even know there were ways to play that weren't full on deathmatches. this is sick
I attempted to play this game as a kid, I keep watching these as of late. Debating on getting started again! Haha
A draw between 2 strong gamers... the cult got lucky with models having 1 wound left. but the BT's got lucky with the drop pod explosion.
I did not expect how this game went.
Spoilers you douchbag
cool spoilers bro...smh
@@nilsggr maybe don't read the comments before watching the video? 🤷🏻♂️ Just a thought.
And black templar got lucky with the "a trap sprung" charge being missed
This channel is finally back with a product that is as magnificent as season 1...JT's commentary and the music are spot on...fun to listen to!
That was a great batrep! Really enjoy seeing a more competitive one, especially with GSC :) There was so much to learn from this, I'd love to see more.
That was the Best Game yet!!! This game had something for everyone, even Nick, had to be happy with all the Vehicle Explosions especially the Drop Pod.
Holy moly I’m just now finding out about this from my teacher. This is sick!
Those Templars are painted beautifully
sometimes, and i stress sometimes, i think the game itself gets lost int he personalities we often see
But, this was great. seeing a by the numbers, down the line game from two experienced tournament players is always interesting
As a Templar Player i look forward to this.
as tyranid player (i know it is not genestealers but still) i look forwards to this
Huge fan of Gary since he beat Jim Vesel on the channel - love watching him play. Kudos to both players, hell of a match
Pre premier Commment : I thought this is going to be the match of SpaceMarinesSteve VS GenestealerNick, but this is a pro players match. Can't wait to see the centurions in action
Post premier :
- denying deny the witch???
- seeing Incursors take morale is really hit the the heart
- Seeing centurions in action is really pleasants especially when they masscre the genestealer
- Apothecary+Centurion tanky combination
- Genestealer showcase how tarpitting enemy is always works
- end turn 2 genestealer trying to catch up
- turn 3 genestealer start dropping like flies
- never doubt the genestealer when they try to catch up
- wtf explosive drop pods
- as closing the GSC truck sent the infiltrators to another world, what an unexpected ending
- Well done boys Good Game Well Played
Love the army choice (huge Templar fan here) NOTE: bathe you blade got changed so that the black templars player gets to choose which enemy character that accepts the challenge
They tend to film these a good while in advance so may have been filmed before that change went live. Not sure though as idk when that was changed
Changed with nephilim. So if they play nephilim he could have known.
The other members are awesome narrators for 40k in 40m,but..
Hell JT is back!
WOW! What a great game. Back and forth between two very different armies and play styles. And it's always nice to see Marines represented well on the channel.
I really enjoyed watching a competitively-minded game with such highly skilled players. More of this caliber of gameplay would be great!
Nice! These guys are definitely more into the game play than painting.
JT Narrating the Final Table at LVO would be an Amazing Collaboration between Play On and FLG
Gary's secondary choice kept him in this game, that Bath on the Blood was the clutch! Great game! And JT the best narrator ever!
Awesome to see Black Templers.
Be interesting to see who pulls off the win.
The image of an Emperor's Champion throwing a grenade is awesome and hilarious 😂
New Space Marine Tactics. Orbital Explosive Drop Pods!
Lol this was great!
"Neophytes rolled a one on morale, that makes them insanely brave!"
Yeah, that sounds like the Black Templars.
The music on these videos is top tier
Always loved the Black T
emplars! Great bat rep as always guys!
Incredible game and video! Thank you!
THAT was a hell of a game! I was rooting for you, Alex!
Wow, GG.
I don't think I saw a Single GSC infantry model, I saw a bunch of their vehicles and a whole lot of Bright ugly green circles.
Templars and GSC is a match made in heaven: narrative and competetive blast!
I love it when JT narrates...this was such a cool game..great ending!
1:45 that pun is gold
Awesome match, I've never seen centurions be so threatening before
That was the best game I've ever seen. Dear lord these are some professionals!
It's good to see you have different ruins and buildings. You should use them more, they are way more balanced than any you used before. They are more tournament type.
Tzeentch doesn't leave the dice alone at all 😂
I’m just getting into 40k so you can call me a noob 😂 it’s always so mind boggling how much strategy and brain power it takes to play in a competitive level! Just amazing stuff
We got a DICE SHAKER lady's and gentlemen
Oh god, that was an amazing game. I absolutely love watching such mastery. Especially someone with such command of the genestealers~
This was an absolute treat, what a game, 10/10.
That Helbrecht conversion is darn good.
Alright now that we've got a super competitive game on here Play On needs to grab 2 random players from a local store and see how they do. Just complete new players, throw em in
those black templars are lookin clean, that's awesome paint scheme
This was a great match. How I've missed chosen secondaries!!! 👍
I'm not fond of the random secondary cards. They are too random, for a strategic game. Dice are all the random you need in my opinion
I might be cringe but I love to imagine a story behind why the army’s are there and imagine the actions in the game as events in like a movie or something. Like a genestealer cult busting through a wall to ambush a squad of marines.
Thanks for another great vidéo battrep. Thanks.
Loved the game! Loved the narration - thats some quality Entertainment
Two great guys! I don't know who to cheer for
Seeing those Black Templars makes me feel INFINITELY better about my first batch of shock troopers, and just the rest of my mashup army of hodgepodge, sure mines almost parade ready, except I lack shading, but seeing them not be perfect, makes me feel better about just my whole layout, as Poppy as it is, not that I play, at least not yet, but I do like painting my factional army of Guard and Knights and eventually Spacers. And the opposing Tau/Tyranids/Necrons eventually. Thousand sons not withstanding.
This match was awesome
Awesome match thank you!
Someone needs to go back to that battlefield and put that drop pod in a dreadnought. It would be unstoppable.
Yea Alex!! Great game, very enjoyable to watch.
Gorgeous models, thanks for sharing.
Great game. Well played both and good commentary
Question: Did the GSC player ever roll War Convoy?
Pro match: appreciated.
Alex: it would be terrible, if the drop pod exploded.
The drop pod: yes Rico, kaboom.
These armies both look amazing well painted
Now I want to play them ugh
Think I’d bring my own dice if I was ever a guest on here lol anything to avoid those black dice lol
Was really hoping that Art of War could show us a GSC victory on this channel, but it'll have to wait.
A pure GSC victory, you mean…
So the Ironclad actually airdropped & that Drop Pod was just his "Snack Pack" of C4... makes sense, always pack a lunch when going to battle kids
Awesome game, awesome production values, great players and commentary. Keep up the excellent work. Keep up the Black Templar and marine content.
Please do more Age of Sigmar. Love your bat reps!
The fact that the GSC has white walls on their vehicles is awesome
That was an amazing game! Wow! A nail-biter!
I wish you guys did more matched play games, I like you tempest of war games but it’s not the same as seeing two competitive players duel it out
Agreed. These ruins are way better than any used in other episodes. Feel more like a WTC. I don't like in W40k with "fluff" ruins/obstacles/buildings - they remove fairness and competetivness.
people finally used centurions with meltas!
Nice episode!
Not to be that one annyoing person commenting on a year old video but the score was actually 69-69 not 79-79. So many numbers in warhammer yet we still cant add !!!🤣🤣🤣
What a nailbiter!!!
What a fantastic match!!!
Templar Brothers ! Purge the Xenos. Burn the Earth on which you walk. For the God Emperor ! ⚔✝
Black Templars !!! Onward brothers !! 💪💪
More serious game, with JT casting. Sold
35:40 - Hard to gage from the birds eye, but couldn't the champ have been positioned in a way to get Look out Sir from the Drop Pod while also holding the objective? That means the crossfire token and potential fight-last (which didn't happen) to counter the innata Fight first would have been off the table.
Also, throughout the game there was a LOT of shooting through ruins. Were they not obscuring?
We would trust the players to make the call at the table whether or not they are positioned to gain benefits. Both veteran players Garry was probably unable to position as you mention. For the Ruins, often the players were taking their units and pushing them to "touch" the ruin so that they could shoot through them but once that happens they gained the benefit of cover but no longer are obscured.
On that last turn the centurions split lascannon fire between those two vehicles, did they just not hit for the second vehicle or were they never rolled?
