I have 2 lists I could use and I can't decide which one would be better, it's for a small(12 or so person) tournament and I have no idea what their local meta is. I was just hoping to get some input on what list would be a better choice to bring. From what Ive heard the wraiths with a destroyer lord can be very good but I would also end up having to hide Imotekh and his cryptek near an immortals squad as the downside rather than having them have their own squad.

My first one is:
-5 Deathmarks
-1 Cryptek (Veil of Darkness; Abyssal Staff)
-------------------------------------------------
-5 Necron Immortals(Gauss Blaster)
-1 Imotekh
-1 Cryptek(Chronometron; Aeonstave)
-------------------------------------------------
-10 Necron Immortals (Tesla Carbine)
-1 Necron Lord(Resurrection Orb; Mindshackle Scarabs; Warscythe)
-------------------------------------------------
-10 Necron Immortals (Tesla Carbine)
-1 Necron Lord(Resurrection Orb; Mindshackle Scarabs; Warscythe)
-------------------------------------------------
-1 Doom Scythe
-------------------------------------------------
-1 Doom Scythe
-------------------------------------------------
-1 Doom Scythe
-------------------------------------------------
-4 Canoptek Wraiths(1x whip coils)
-------------------------------------------------
-1 Triarch Stalker(heat ray)
-------------------------------------------------
43 models and exactly 1850


OR:

-1 Imotekh
-1 Cryptek(Chronometron; Aeonstave)
-------------------------------------------------
-10 Necron Immortals (Tesla Carbine)
-1 Necron Lord(Resurrection Orb; Mindshackle Scarabs; Warscythe)
-------------------------------------------------
-10 Necron Immortals (Tesla Carbine)
-1 Necron Lord(Resurrection Orb; Mindshackle Scarabs; Warscythe)
-------------------------------------------------
-6 wraiths(3x whip coils, 1xPartical caster)
-1 Destroyer lord(mind shackle scarabs)
-------------------------------------------------
-1 Doom Scythe
-------------------------------------------------
-1 Doom Scythe
-------------------------------------------------
-1 Doom Scythe
-------------------------------------------------
-1 Triarch Stalker(Heat Ray)
-------------------------------------------------
35 models in army and exactly 1850
I could also just attach Imotekh to a squad of immortals in the second list and drop the cryptek to let the destroyer lord have a 2+ armor save and all the wraiths have whip coils.

Why do you use close-combat lords in Immortal squads? Immortals are not marines, you don't want them in close combat.

As to which list to take, it boils down to what you want more, Deathmarks or Wraiths. Personally I think Wraiths are better and more controllable choice, although there's nothing wrong with Deathmarks too.
