Hey guys, I’m still fairly new and after having a few games under my belt. I’m finding myself usually completely wiped out by turn 3/4. One of my buddies who is teaching me says I’m naturally really aggressive as a player and might have chosen the wrong army but I think I might just have a misunderstanding of how to play this army.
Can you guys please walk me through what I should be doing and why? Or point me to resources?
Thank you
Edit: okay so a few comments suggested I post my lists but I think it might be better to show you all what I have and go off your suggestions from there?
