Anyhow, I just picked up the 10th Edition Core Book and the Tyranid Codex, and put together a quick list.

The Broodlord would run with the larger Genestealer unit.

you'd do well against Tau. Good movement and they would want to avoid getting close. You would struggle to kill vehicles/battlesuits though.

NGL I don't see any scenarios where this list beats a salamander list I'm afraid.

In either case, this is a good scoring list but won't kill masses. Play against anything that's not afraid to get close and you're going to face issues.
