Ok, the one list build that always seems to get me is DE Venom Spam. At 1850-1950 pts, how does everyone else deal with it?

Mech-up and make any Venoms containing Blasterborn your priority, then Wyches. The Venoms themselves can't hurt your tanks. Warriors squads can only have one Blaster in a unit, and Wyches have to assault to really do damage.

Also, pack lots of Hydras, although Eradicators will do in a pinch. Dark Eldar depend on cover saves to survive, so the best way to deal with that is to deny them cover at any and every opportunity.

I would say Hellhounds over hydras. Their venoms will have a 5+ invul save so the hydras won't do much better then an auto cannon team. The Leman Rus Exterminator might do well against they as well as you can kit it out to have mass Str 7 shots with plasma sponsons.

At that point, you might as well just fit the Exterminator with sponson bolters and get a whole bunch of S 5 hits. With just the sponsons, you're statistically all-but-guaranteed to get a glance each Shooting Phase.
