If you want a flawed history and a fast, hard hitting army then deepkin may work for you.
Run the sea unicorn to make your eels a battle line option and you can literally play an all mounted army that hits worryingly hard still.

Mobility is a huge thing in AoS, so having an entire army that can essentially fly around the board makes it far easier and you can pick the charges.
Tons of the death star type builds are slow and avoiding them is key, something deepkin can do without even trying.
