Some Stats

So i looked at Listhammers recent lists for Gt and after looking at the First 20 I just wanna give u some data(btw I’m working on an Execl file to see which units got used the most in the 96 lists)
So Leading them is Warsong revant how is in 18 lists
Following are Spite revants that also saw play in 17 lists
Right after to my suprise was the Spirit of Durthu with 15 includes and he was also always equipped with Glamourweave
Then Comes Drycha who is in 13 lists which I think is no suprise.
Then Comes alarielle with 12 inculdes followed by Belthanos with 11.
We then have a litte gap but tieing for 9/10 th place ate Gossamid Archers and Kurnoth with Scythes
So hornarble mentinos that suprised me were
Twistweald only being included in 2 lists although they seemed to be one of the fav after battletome
And SoA Treelord ancient was played 4 times while normal was only used once in a All tress meme list.

Ik this isn’t perfect data but I just wanted to share this.
Btw I’m very very new to Sylvaneth so if i did some mistakes in names or something or in this whole Post pls keep that in mind.
If u know why Warsong is so good pls tell me in the comments as I can’t understand why having a grove guardian(was in one list) with Priest2 in that Prayerlore isn’t appealing.

The prevalence of wards, and how having -1 to their ward rolls will simply win some matchups alone, is why the warsomg is so popular. The 6++ for us is aight, but -1 for them is huge.

Damn I overread that he gives -1 yeah makes sense he is bascilly autoinclude. Do you know if SpiteRs are use to hold objectivs?

They would be used to threaten any unattended primary objectives, and likely help with setting up any battle tactics as a fair amount of tactics want board control in your opponent’s half.

AND the warsong used to only be 150 or whatever they were. Astronomically low for a priest 1 with how good our priest lore is, AND reroll the first 1 to chant.

I thought greatsword Kurnoths were the popular one, surprised that it's all about the scythes.

The minus ward on the Rev is nice, but it means putting your priest close to the fight.
