So I love the Emperor's Children and noise marines. Also I am a big fan of Slaanesh Daemons, go figure.

CSM Primary
HQ- Daemon Prince of Slaanesh, wings, armor and LVL 3 psyker
(Warlord) Slaanesh Lord.....yup

Troops- 3x5 man squads of Noise Marines with Sonic blasters and Blastmasters
1x20 cultists w/ 2 flamers.

Fast- Baledrake

Heavy- 2 defilers, stock.

Allies

HQ- Herald, locus of grace(move through cover) exalted reward and LVL 1 psyker on a steed

Troops- 10 daemonettes

Fast- 16 seekers

If I face daemons, probably take Grimoire. If a seer council I'd love to try the doomstone and have 4+ warlocks take LD test to go dumbdumb. Otherwise likely portaglyph.

Dependant on army facing I'd love to get me some Symphony of Pain on DP to make my sonic booms better. I think I have decent long range, 3x small blast S8 and 2x Ordinance S8 all at 48" and over. A 17man squad for counter assaults or flank is nice.

Any thoughts or opinions on what would slaughter this? Is it tournament worthy? My main meta is Tau and Eldar variety, serpent/wraith constructs.

Seekers prove to be pretty friggin awesome at distraction and butchering.

Hear the dirge of Chaos and despair!

Ahem. I was told many times not to mix Sonic Blasters with Blastmasters, and I've found out from personal experience that this is indeed good advice. You could ditch the Cultists to make a little more room for a few separate 5-(or 6-, the number of Slaanesh)man squads of NMs with either Sonic Blasters or a Blastmaster per squad. The first to deal with hordes of light infantry, the others to drop the bass on heavy infantry and even an MC or a light vehicle.

Defilers are awesome models, but not great units. You could swap the 2 for 5 (five!) Obliterators and have some spare points to spend on NMs. Oblits are far more versatile and survivable.

Can't really comment on Chaos Daemons, but I see some synergy going on in the list. With a couple of tweaks it can become a fluffy and dangerous combination.

Rock on!

1x 11 man squad with 10 sonic blasters, p. sword and dirge caster (Lord will go here to make 12 total)

So I'm fluffy with #6's, hopefully we get utterly blessed!
I liked the Armor pen from Defiler's with survivability, but getting 8 S8 shots I think will be equally as helpful from a distance.

Seems much better to me now. Forgefiend's firepower is considerable, and it has a 5++ save to bolster it's defences.

I suppose that the Sonic Blaster squad's "Dirge Caster" is actually a Doom Siren? This is a nice weapon, pretty handy when firing Overwatch. However, should you drop the PW and the Doom Siren from that Noise Champion, you could add an Icon of Excess instead for the same points cost. 11-man sqaud of NMs with Sonic Blasters + a Slaaneshi Chaos Lord (who benefits from the FnP as well) would be nasty

Yes doom siren haha and I forgot to say that it does have the Icon of Excess in there. I'm debating about trying to free up points for a P.fist on the NM champ since I have a lord to take challenges. Then though I'm debating even putting the P. swords on either and just taking burning brand with lord. Since I don't really want them in CC, just mid range threat. Seekers are the CC.
