Extremely durable, including high toughness units and faction defensive abilities.Strong melee attacks, almost any non-horde model is a threat.Strong ranged attacks, many with very high damage.One of the top pysker factions with a great mechanic ( Synaptic Link ).Fast, offering multiple options to out-maneuver.Innes Wilson’s Leviathan Warrior Bricks.Most of the general faction abilities and concepts were covered thoroughly in our codex review, but we’re going to briefly review them here as well to make sure there’s no doubts. If you’re new to Tyranids and want to start in competitive play, a beleaguered returning player, or just someone who wants to learn their dirty tricks so they can counter them ( not a bad move!), this is going to be where we discuss the Tyranid faction in-depth and break down some of the more successful methods of leveraging the forces of the Hive Mind at peak performance. This, right now, is the best time to be competitively playing Tyranids that we’ve seen in decades. With the much-improved 9th edition codex now widely available, Tyranids are enjoying a major resurgence and have become a dominant force toward the top of the various tier charts you’ve no doubt seen across many sites/channels.
We clung to our exceptions, our Hive Guard, our Hive Tyrants, but it was a competitively uninteresting time. Certainly there were a few bright spots along the way, but those were few and far between the decades of lackluster rules that left players with little to work with. Competitively, Tyranids have had a history of suffering, let’s just get that out of the way.
