Cool color scheme, cool design language, satisfying to play, lerneans are gorgeous models, fun kitbashing (Effrit, headhunters).
They're also a high skill floor army and are kinda busted when played well, so it attracts technical players. I do think their rules do a great job of embodying how tricky and nasty the legion is but unfortunately that's not something that's fun to fight (as opposed to more "honest" legions like world eaters or death guard or something). I really wish each legion trait still had a downside like in 1st Ed, something representing the martial hubris and arrogance of the AL to counterbalance their various tricks.
Their biggest flaw is that their lore is kind of lame sometimes and their community is almost as insufferable as DA, IF or NL.
I'm an Alpha Legion player so take everything I'm saying with a grain of salt.
