I have played a single tyranid list for the whole edition
I think I’m using this as a confessional as I’ve committed a grave sin against the hive mind and simply did not adapt. When 10th edition first started I picked up my nids and played toys with them and came away with a 2k list. More out of dumb luck than anything it worked pretty well, I didn’t win every game or anything but I did win enough in enough ways to not really need/want to tweak it. As 10th went on and points were adjusted, it just so happened one unit would go up another down and though things changed my list remained the same and so I kept it for the bit. Now we’re at the end of 10th and I’ve only made the list.
TLDR; I played one list this entire edition and kinda wanna be judged for that.
my second great sin is playing synaptic nexus
