These are the 2 1850 lists that I most use/ am most excited about using. Which list do you like? Please give feedback on why you like which list (tactics, personal preference of allie, whatever)

Eldar with Dark Eldar aliies (Corsair style, but still too closely connected with Saim-Hann to use Corsair rules)
Tactics for this list are to use reserves and the VSG to protect against Alpha-strike armies, while having a good Alpha strike myself. Autarch joins the Reavers.
As this is a competitive, yet casual list, I usually let my opponent choice with WK variant I'll use: Wraithcannons or Glaive/Shield

----------------

Eldar with Grey Knight allies (Using a NSF to model proto-type anti-deamon Wriath-constructs as 'count as' GKs)
Again using the VSG to protect against Alpha-strike, however this list relies on durability and CC a bit more. Terminators almost always attempt to Deep-Strike turn 1


In either list, I can swap 2 Scatter lasers per Windrider unit for Shuricannons instead, and often will for less competitive games.
Any thoughts?

I'd say GK. More mastery levels. Has 2 dread knights to back the WK up against things that might tar pit it vs paper transports that will jink pretty quickly losing all damage output, a worthless HQ (even if it is only what, 10pt or something?). If you want a casually competitive list, go DE. More competitive without full on ultra cheese, GK.
