Cheers for the advice everyone - it's nice to get a bit of help!
FYI one wave serpent can and will kill a hive tyrant in one round of shooting if your not in the air. I know, its happened to me If your in the air or you've forced a jink one serpent seems to be able to pretty consistently put a wound on a tyrant a turn. So my advice is if your using a tyrant keep him hidden for as long as possible!
Also bladestorm is a pretty annoying rule for our MC's so if your low on wounds or facing a lot of shrunken shots you'll want to jink.
I think electroshock grubs arn't a lot of use against serpents if you can't fly as by the time your in range to use them you'll be jinking a lot from their supporting units and unable to fire them! Might be fun if someone brings a dreadnaught and tries to charge your tyrant though and good against land raiders
Just my advice from my limited experiance using a not particularly competitive list against serpents.
Warhammer Fantasy Beastmen, Woodelves; Warhammer 40K Dark Eldar, Blood angels, Tyranids; Battlefleet Gothic Imperial, Dark Eldar; Saga Vikings; Guild ball Masons; Dropzone Commander & Dropfleet PHR, UCM(dropfleet only); Lord of the rings Mordor, Gundabad; Beyond the gates of Antares Ghar Outcast Rebels
