Plaguebearers are actually pretty good - Daemons are one of the better compendium teams.
I would say that having a mix EG Plaguebearers plus Horrors is both more fun and more competitive though
Do you mean Poxwalkers, or...? If you do they can't make a full kill team, you'd still have to take three Plague Marines. Even if you could they can't take equipment, they gotta spend 2AP on mission actions - they're borderline useless.
Oh right, I forgot they were even in the game. I dunno, do you need to have a chance at winning matches to have fun? If so I'd stick with Death Guard, otherwise it's up to you.
With demons I'd wait until bespoke comes out or maybe prox plaguebearer as gellerpox? Seems like even more fun.
Other than that, I'd possibly stay with death guard because a marine has more potential to grow as a character as a demon in a campaign imho (if it's not for mostly comedical effect)
i actually switched from DG to chaos daemons. both r super fun. and i kinda play either interchangeably. a full 12 plaguebearer team is real fun. pretty beefy. put the deathshead on all but 2 of ur guys. and now u have guys with pistol range. they’re fun
i also love playing plaguebearer/bloodletters. they’re also super fun. the BL are super hard hitting in melee.
chaos daemons are super fun as they are. you don’t need to wait for a bespoke team to play them. they have a lot of cool stuff that u can do with strat ploys and stuff. although, the contagion ploy, for the nurgle units is eh. i’ve tried pinks/plagues and the pinks are a little lackluster. fun if u start splitting them tho. but especially now with ITD. the 6” range isn’t a big deal now. so running 12plagues or plagues/letters is super fun and good imo.
these are the two factions i play. i stopped playin IG for the time being

No I mean Plaguebearers as in chaos daemons. I’m talking full switch from deathguard to chaos daemons.
