Well, I played Serpents from the 3rd edition on.
Now they got their functionality back as being the safest transport in the game. Its no longer a reliable gunboat and it never has been except in the 6th ed in conjunction with new codex.
Serpent spam is no longer a nobrainer. Its again an army for a skilled player. I like this changes since I've shelved my Eldar after two RTTs with the new codex. They were simply too powerful.

The fact your serpents themselves now will be scoring (and troop scoring at that) makes them infinitely more powerful. A scoring unit with a 30 inch move has so much potential.

You mean last turn objective grabbing if its last turn. But Serpents are still very vulnerable in cc.
