Grey knights are ment to fight daemons why are they not that good at it. The best thing they have is the strike squads to fight daemons. I play daemons and I have no worry of facing most grey knights because they don't run strike squads. I just want to know what makes them so good against daemons.

They have some abilities that work well against Daemons (preferred enemy, Warp Quake, Dark Excommunication, Draigo, Corteaz, Banisher henchmen, Daemonbane on everything, Psyk-out grenades, and others). But, you're right, those are not commonly seen in TAC lists (apart from the few that are on everyone).

Grey Knights do seem designed to beat loyalist Marines more than anything. I guess bathing in the blood of faithful servants of the Emperor tend to change your priorities...
