But the Taus I've been facing have built:
2x SS, Jet Pack, Vespid
TC

Do you know what TC with Flamer does to poor guardians and rangers together with vespids?
Any more suggestions on that? After this I will add it to orignal post.

ELDAR MATCHUPS AND BUILDORDERS.
I have NO idea what I'm doing with DC Eldar atm. Mostly, I find myself having poor unit counters but simply outmicroing my opponent. So when I face someone good I get really hammered.

Lets look at some of the major strats that you are very likely to face in the ladder, and their counters, shall we?

First off, a personal vendetta for me, VESPIDS.
How do I beat them best? Should I skip the generator? Should I go generator, Guardians + FS and delete generator if Vespids come hopping in? Etc etc...

NECRONS. What can I do Turrestrush is the only option I guess, together with Cowshee/Harlequins (until Flayed Ones pop out gg)
What is the most effective turret rush BO atm? (Yes yes it's lame but I don't care I want to be able to play for the win not to be nice tbh, it's up to us to find the strongest tactics so that the balance team hopefully will take care of it.)

I'll actually just start of with these 2 major ones. Then I will add more as you proceed with good answers and solutions!

Well after some laddering and more games I can only say...
Grey Knights rock!
Keep them on Ranged, they are awesome, and their spell is INSANE like Listoric said you can shut off whole paths because you don't want to walk through that mess

Well, they are pretty badass I'd go as far as saying that they are fairly overpowered, versus for example Eldar. Try Trukk + Busta spam vs Eldar it is EVIL unless Eldar gets to Tier3 he is in deep trouble.

Yea, I think Tau > Necron if played right, but, I have been wrong before

Yea well this was my first even before the Swedish one.
Next shoutcast I might do this weekend, because next weekend I won't have acess to internet for a good while.

I've gotten some feedback now too, so my next audiocast then 8), will be much better I can promise.

TheMothMan

Ingame name: ARRG HH SPAM
Duration: Don't know maybe ~15 minutes and upwards.

Patch: DC
Description: Ok this is the third and final game I'll post of me vs TheMothMan.
I know this map is hard for IG it seems.
I fear that he will turret the center early game, so I build a mine field right of the bat when the game starts.
I then go for 2x guards, Rangers and FS.
I get harassed by long ranged guardsmen and annoying turrets
Later on he gets Mech Commands up and he starts spamming HHs like CRAZY.
However I gain the momentum with Fire Dragons and FS, and get Warp Spiders to pimp smack any remaining guardsmen.
At the end he starts building oh so nasty basiliks but by then I got Tier3 and WS Nades so they had no chance, GG imo this is a textbook replay of Eldar vs IG on this map.

PS: You know the drill, tell me if it's the wrong replay

Map:

TheMothman
_vs_
Khan

Ingame name: ork sharpsho
Duration: ~10-15 mins

Patch: DC
Description: Ok here's another replay of me though this time it's not shoutcasted however it would be a nice game to shoutcast I think!

It's my Orks vs Mothmans IG on Outer Reaches. He goes the usual harass/tech build while I go for 3x slugga, gretchin, WB, big mek build.

I go aggressive to the middle and take over that Post easily, while continuing to harass with my big mek and 2 slugga squads. The battle continues at the top of the map where we get one post each, and he is of course putting up some turrets and of course I am putting up a Waagh Banner.
I get PoG and get NLs to my slugga squads, and surprises him with my sharpshooting slugga boyz owning his guardsmen His CS also suffers alot from FF from pistol sluggas I even get flamers for them.
I see that he builds a Mech command so I quickly take my newly built Nob squad and my 3 sluggas and smash it!
After that it was probably GG but he is doing good with HWTs and such but in the end I become too much for him with nobz, manz, pistol sluggas, BM and bustas.
GG imo worth a watch also any tips for improvement of my ork play would be nice, I've never been a real ork player so please come with suggestions if I do anything really bad.
Cheers!

PS: Please tell if it's the wrong replay, a have sooo many replays no it's starting to get hard to tell them apart

Patch: DC
Description: Allright, this is my FIRST shoutcast So PLEASE don't go crazy over me, it's actually harder than I would ever imagine. Also, the game I shoutcast might not be the best game, but it's decent. It's me vs TheMothMan on Meeting of Minds.
Please come with some nice feedback. Listening to it myself, I suppose that I should talk more, but the game was very techy so sometimes there wasn't alot to talk about
And yes, it's alot of Swenglish, but I will try to improve. Just tell me if there is some pronounciation that is WAAAY of, I won't get offended

Also, I hope that TheMothMan won't get offended by me posting this I know he didn't play his best but I just wanted to shoutcast some random replay.

I couldn't upload the attachment here, so I had to upload it to yousendit.com instead It's a .rar file, so maybe that's why?
Edit: Oh, I saw now that the file was somewhat big, so I guess it was just taking alot of time

Yes a very nice game.
Try pushing for an earlier trukks mass together with some Bustas, it's hard to counter as Eldar becuase fragons gets tied up mostly and when not, the trukks actually beat them I think! So he has to gets WL BLs and the Bustas can take care of them pretty nice for cost I think, at least I had problems countering that as Eldar.

This was also a good game and shows the matchup quite good imo.
However, I don't think that what he used in that game was very OP, except for Land Speeders but he didn't spam them so..
It would have been worse if he went FC PP and ASM -> Chap + Whatever imo!
GG keep posting games they have been of good quality so far

This will be great! Best of luck to all competitors ; )

Yayy thanks alot Getting sharper and sharper.
Dragon say hello to Yoda from me!

I'll probably get some drinks tonight, and hook up with some friends
Cheers!

VERY good game you should have given a better description because alot of people missing out on this replay I think, very nice replay! Poor Fash he was so close to win
One of the best games I've seen in DC so far.
GG!

Do you take 2on2s as well.. ? I have one quite godlike... It's fucking hectic... But then again you will get exhausted if you're going to shoutcast it

I guess that Depends. TLSC doesn't count but don't they have like 5423452 members

Yes.. and in the beginning.. he doesn't HAVE Lightning Shield

Assasin is sick vs Tau He kills all suits with just a couple of shots and with Scope mode on I think it's like 1 shot and they are very low on hp
