-1 for not Having DA as an option (we're still technically loyalists).

I liked the poll better when the Dark Angels weren't a part of it.

That said, Space Wolves.

Their Spiritual Liege is Wolverine, and he's a child molester.

Marines. fething. Malevolent. Who the hell would go about hostage situations with fething Whirlwinds?! And use armour dyed with PISS? *Salamander Rage*

No, but if we're talking about Loyalists we don't like the general design of, I don't really know if I dislike any. The Space Wolves could do with more viking and less wolf, but are otherwise cool, Dark Angels epitome anything awesome about the grim Imperium and Grey Knights are that awesome kind of evil that is needed to fight an even greater one... They are essentialy Anti-Chaos Daemons now, and that's just cool

The White Scars are a bit dull to me, but that's mostly how ignored they are, and Iron Hands likewise.

Now, if we're talking Traitors, that's a whole other story...

Don't worry, Dane. We... I mean the traitor marines will get there poll soon!

You do that and the rage of the north will be released. For the lulz, of course.

Ouch, the hate towards my DA, we're not that bad once you get to know us (too bad you'll never know us and our secrets).

I personally dislike the white scars for trying to out-bike the ravenwing, and tend to hate grey knights. They just seems to be the biggest bunch of buttholes, casually purging whoever and not bothering to caring who dies to "protect the imperium". Sure, sometimes there might be some decent guys, but the fluff tends to imply they're terrible people.

I believe the term you're looking for is yiffing.

The Salamanders kinda bore me, though I can't really equate that to hate.
Someone made mention of Marines Malevolent, and they could certainly be a contender. I wish they had more background and rules myself.

Wolves. Because 1++ plot armour.

Oh, please. Ultramarines have the best plot armor in the entire 40k universe. They Plot Armour 1++/Plat Cover Save 2+++/ guilliman Save 3+++/ Invulnerable save 1+++. Ultramarines should have been annihilated by the 'Nids.

Ultrasmurfs. That 5th edition codex was atrocious. Also, I'm not a big fan of the fact that their Primarch decided to ditch the Imperium during the Horus Heresy just to save Macragge when the entire galaxy was under the threat of being plunged into Chaos

Space Wolves.

"We're like total bloody savages but like total awesome noble tactican guys too and did I mention we have pskers but they're not pskyers and we tell the man to go feth themselves but really we're the most loyal chapter of them all".

Give me a break.

I'm a Salamander player, but love the Wolves. Bjorn and Arjac win it for me.

Ultramarines can go die. So annoying.... I really just hate pretty boys. Gulliman is the glasses pocket protector kid in math that asks if homework is due.

Get digested smurfs.

I used to really dislike the Ultramarines for being the poster boy, boy scouts of 40k. But after reading Know No Fear I grew to like them. (still not my favorite. IF is.)
My 2nd favorite used to be SW, but after the latest release of Logan clause and Murder Murderson on his Murder Murder, I just find them a parody of what they used to be.
So, SW.

I own and play (sorta) all of those.

My favs

UM
WS
DA
IF (and CF/BT)
IH
SW
Sallies

It's alright, you are redeemed by the fires of battle, and the anvil of war. Someday I will paint me some RT alternate colored Sallies alongside a set of some green ones.

Oh and to echo others about Kyme, I read the preview from BL of one of the Salamander books, it was awful. Ironic considering this was THE chapter that got me into W40k. I made fun of their name on the video game Kill Team, thinking it was stupid. I did my research on the unofficial wiki, and fell in loved with them.

Ultramarines, because GW keeps trying to make them "the best chatur evah" and all their fans are 10 year olds who draw emo Sephiroth artwork. Goddamnit Matt Ward.

GK. They are EVIIIIL.
Even Chaos guys dont do thinks that they do.
I really wouldn't be suprised when they would say " Hey guys,we are Alpharius.Trololo."

Or a Tzeentch guys,becouse all them are psykers

Smurfs and Dark angels

Smurfs because of the D-riding Matt ward and dark angels cause i just hate that chapter how they operate how the lion kills his own men and literally calls himself king...

whoever hates the salamanders SHAME ON YOU!! What is there to hate! They are literally the most humble chapter ever! Vulkan is also the only primarch who you could actually talk to who isn't a pompous ass!

But haters are gonna hate!

I said Black Templars (as an old Legion purist) but I'm actually glad to see Space Wolves topping the list after they went the riding-wolves and wolf-sled route.

In order of dislike
UM
GK
Blood Ravens
SW
BA

Mostly for fluff violations (KHORNATE SORCERERS!?), awful fluff (Mary Sues) and originality. UMs is mostly due to Matt Ward.

I'm just tired of blue space marines vs. red chaos space marines.

I hate the Ultramarines because I get annoyed everytime I find some bits in my "vanilla" marine box that aren't "vanilla." There should be no chapter specific peices in a "vanilla" box of space marines. Period.

I hate the Grey Knights because of the fluff.

I hate the Space Wolves because of the models and the fluff. Space Marines riding wolves make hurt my eyes and they look like homeless people wearing power armour.

I'm surorised how long it took for someone to mention Blood Ravens. I almost gave them thier own poll choice. I hear a lot of hat thrown in thier direction.

Ultramarines, because so much of the bloody Codex focuses around them (seriously, look at the page count for them!) and they're basically infallible.

White Scars because they are so goddamn boring.

I like the rest though, mainly because they're either internally troubled (DA/BA), making for interesting fluff; or just don't give a damn (BT/GK) about the Codex Astartes that the Ultrasmurfs love so much.

I also generally dislike the BA. I don't know why but there is just something about them I usually don't like

Space Wolves. All day, every day, twice on Tuesdays. The only thing keeping Grey Hunters from being totally OP still is all the other stuff that is even MORE OP, like Xeno shooting lists.

I don't really like the successor chapters. I liked it better when they were all united into legions

Space Wolves. Mostly because I've been a Dark Angels player for 10 years, and they pissed us off that one time so screw them!
I have a friend who played SW that I used to play against all the time back in the day. Whenever we would have games, we would have a sergeant from each of our armies have a little 1v1. The champion that won earned first turn for his army. We had a for fun 2v2 ladder style setup one summer, and he was on my team. Team DA and SW. We would have our little 1v1, and the winner drew up our tactical plan. People used to come watch our ritual, pausing their game or whatever they were up too, and root for their champion. It was an ongoing thing in our local group for about half a year. Ah good times.

My "hatred" for SW is mostly just a pseudo in character one.
Meh I voted for them anyways, and also GK, because you know why.

It used to be a required rule to do the 1v1 champion thing. Makes me sad it got taken out. Also, don't be mad. Lion El suckerpunched Leman and knocked him out

It wasn't a suckerpunch, the idiot let his guard down to laugh mid fight. Of course he is going to get wrecked
Also someone mentioned the rule thing to us as well, though I don't recall it myself. Plus in the fluff it says that whenever the chapters meet on the battlefield, they have a champion from each force fight to recreate that epic duel. Hopefully it helps remind the SW to keep their guard up.

I always do this when my SW and DA take the field together, but with the HQs... Tooled up Thunderlord vs DA Librarian generally ensures the Fenrisian gets Warlord duties

I think Space Wolves are pretty cool when they are one of the few with the balls (and let's be honest, means) to stand up to the Inquisition.

After the Inq decided to start purging everyone that fought on Armageddon because "THIS MUST BE A SECRET! SSSSHHHHHH", Space Wolves were the ones who said "Da feth you doing, bro?!" and protected as many as they could from the claws of the Inquisition and the GK.

Seriously, Inquisition is necessary and those who are good on the job are the best characters ever, but most of them just seem to be power-hungry bastards.

In theory, that sounds good, but at the same time these are supposed to be genetically engineered, psycho indoctrinated super soldiers of unquestioning loyalty, who otherwise never seem to give much of a flying feth about others they fight alongside.

Their fluff is just way too confused and contradictory, on top of being badly written.
