@MykeWeiler for banshees you need heavy bolter squads along backed up with asms. don't build turrets in 1v1 unless you enjoy losing energy

[MykeWeiler]

I did get owned by a few Eldar Players that were very tactical I admit. But I also get owned when they spam a couple of squads of shees and run in with their commander. They just blitz me before i can get enough power for a naught which is basically the only thing that stops them. You see, I play with a Tech marine, Ill add you, I'm KriegerWeiler. If you have any suggestions on how to kill some shees with the tech marine, let me know. I usually use the shotgun blast and a flamer.

I think you just got owned by some good Eldar player who used banshees effectively. They're not overpowered, you just don't know how to counter them.

[Elintasokas]

Ok, I'm 30. Been playing since beta.

Banshees are easy to counter, since they're VERY fragile. One good counter is the apothecary grenade, which destroys banshees in a blink of eye, doing next to no damage to your tactical marines. Banshees are also literally useless against tyranids. The nid just just uses termagant slowdown and banshees can't move at all. Those are just 2 examples. And T2 on, banshees do nothing but eat req, because they die.

Add me on Live. Same name as on here.

25 i believe, and I can see why Eldar would require more micromanaging at times, but that doesn't change that fact that they are easier to play as, a few of their things need to be changed, they don't need to worry about t3 if all they have to to is build a banshee squad immediately and rush you to keep you down. At least Orks and Tyranids starting melee guys can actually be killed, banshees are faster and stronger. Build 2 squads of them and infantry become obsolete.

[Elintasokas]

What is your TS?

[Elintasokas]

It is a well-known fact, that playing eldar requires way more micromanagement than SM do.

[MykeWeiler]

No they really wouldn't., I play space marines all the time and am very experianced as them, but if I go eldar who i never play I can be just as good, just because all you really need to do is spam the appropriate units -__-

[Elintasokas]

They wouldn't stand a chance against Tyranids then. Eldar are balanced now. They used to be underpowered, now they're fine. Their T1-T2 already sucks enough.
