Honestly I'd wager many just haven't used the Stormcast DoK Battalion in battles to really have given it much of a trial run. It's main weakness is the same as Morathi's Battalion in that its very expensive for a game where most are going to be 2K points - and that's when using minimum models per unit (which often means many are under performing/not at their best and that's before taking one or two turns of casualties). 

To my eye its a battalion put in there for flavour and as an option for very big games, but not one one expects to use in 20K point games (note I've not added up the points and it could come out to above 2K points)

Ok, that's fair. For reference, this is the list I was looking at, thoughts?

It is not. 

Could you explain why: the ability seems really strong?

Has anyone tried the Shadowhammer battalion it looks cool to me but I was wondering if it's at all viable?
