Space Marine vs Death Slaad>Slaad are canonically Chaos
>>97679034Should have aimed a bit higher. $10 on the Death Slaad.
>>97679034Depends on which one GW wants to sell this month and the powercreeped/nurfed stats each figure is given to achieve this. Paypiggies will drop the lowest and rush out to buy the best, before it is nurfed in turn when next month's even newer (and powercreeped) figure drops.
Slaads are jobbers and Space Marines are mary sues, no contest
>>97679034That's a green slaad.Death Slaad are visually identical to gray slaad, who are small and thin.Also, a Death Slaad would win ten times over. They're able to instantly kill creatures in a number of ways, wielding literal Death magic. That, and they have high damage reduction alongside fast regeneration.A space marine, with no access to magical weapons or magic, would struggle to inflict any lasting damage. Meanwhile, the Death Slaad can kill a space marine literally just by pointing at it.>>97679952Most slaad are fodder. Death Slaad are genre shifts, turning heroic fantasy into horror. They can wipe out a party of heroes in a number of unfair ways, requiring fore-knowledge and several layers of specific magical protections if the heroes don't want to be dying left and right.
