So whose better in general, a Dark Apostle or a Tzeentch Lord.

EDIT: Notice how I said 'in general', anyway I have a Rune Priest and I want to convert it to one of the above. My army will be primarily made up of Plague Marines, Khorne Berzerkers, CSM with some havoc , raptors, 3 dreadnoughts and 20 cultist.
I notice how Tzeentch Lords are better melee sorcerers with less magic (which I see as quite useless) and how dark apostle only really works with cultist (which I have few) so I'm trying to pick the lesser of 2 evils. So yeah, pick and explain.

In what way? In looks, gameplay, fluff?

I chose DA since I like how he looks.

Another one of these threads again... great...

To the OP, before asking a question like this, consider the answers you'd give if someone asked for a random, unconnected piece of information like this. We don't know what you are playing, points, composition, game style, nothing.

Ask for a lock on this thread, rephrase your question, and try again.

Ask for a ban, rework your attitude, and try again.

As for the question, I think that Tzeentch lords are better, but neither are very good

so you are going to have PM, Zerks, havoc, raptors, and cultist. Not really anything a Tzeench lord wants to(can) join so go with the DA.
Tzeench lords can get a 3++, couple that on a bike with fist and claw and you arent tooled out bad. The problem is that then you can only join MoT or unmarked units, and MoT sucks on most units.

With your list, I would say neither. Use a Nurgle Lord. Generally speaking though, NEVER EVER the DA. It is basically useless. Even from a fluff standpoint it doesn't really work right.
