Which army is best and why? Discuss!
Introduction for the uneducated, skip if you know that red makes you go fasta.
=====
CHAOS SPACE MARINES
They are often known as Traitor Marines, Chaos Marines or Traitor Legionnaires and count themselves amongst the most favoured servants of the Powers of Chaos.
Once Chaos Space Marines were loyal warriors of the Imperium who fought for the glory of Mankind. Now though, they are vile traitors who have forsaken their oaths of loyalty and turned against humanity. The Chaos Space Marines are numbered among the most grievous enemies of mankind, loyal only to the Dark Gods of Chaos, and themselves. Relentlessly the Chaos Space Marines attack the Imperium, seeking dark glories and personal gain at every turn.
ELDAR
An ancient alien race, the Eldar are possessed of incredible skill. Using dazzling technology and preternatural swiftness, they fight swift and brutal battles, striking at the foe before darting away to avoid retaliation.
The Eldar are an ancient race of Elf-like beings who once ran a vast interstellar empire that covered a good portion of the galaxy. While prosperous, they were nearly destroyed when their excessive hedonism and violence spawned the Chaos God Slaanesh. The remaining Eldar live in Craftworlds, starships whose massive size made them comparable to artificial planets, and are a fractured people both in purpose and politics. They nevertheless remain powerful and dangerous foes, utilizing their advanced technology, psychic abilities, mobility and cunning to defeat their enemies.
ORKS
A galaxy spanning menace, the green-skinned Orks are a brutal race who delight in battle and the carnage of war. Crude and uncivilised, the Orks fight in a simple, yet effective, manner - coming on at the enemy in great mobs and bludgeoning their foes to death in close combat.
Orks are a savage, bloodthirsty green-skinned race that fight with the ferocity of wild beasts. Tough and hardy, in large enough numbers they are more than a match for even the genetically enhanced Space Marines of the Imperium.
Space Marines
The Space Marines are the greatest defenders of humanity. Each is a superhuman warrior armed with the finest wargear and clad in the best armour available to Mankind. Few in number, the Space Marines rely on individual strength and tactics to win the day.
The noble warriors of the Imperium of Man. Space Marines, known in-universe as Adeptus Astartes, are the pinnacle of an advanced genetic engineering programme created by the Emperor of Mankind millennia ago. Though only a million strong, each Marine is equal to dozens of human soldiers, and are divided into a thousand Chapters, each with a thousand Marines.

I hope we can all agree that gay space elves are automatically disqualified.
Space Marines represent the mainstream popamole, we certainly are too edgy for their nonsense.
While the anarchic nature of Orks is temptingly appealing,
I think Chaos Space Marines are the most sensible choice. In the almost forgotten time before web2.0 and nextgen were a thing, they were part of the mainstream. Until they realized that their former brothers have gone full retard by wholeheartedly embracing the popamole decline.
Now CSM are the only ones left standing to fight the good fight. Though at times they may quibble among themselves about petty things like whether Weaboo is tolerable, if Emma Watson is the hottest tranny of them all, or what popamole really means, deep underneath these trivial matters all CSM share and are connected by a brotherly bond. Casting aside their minor disagreements and differences to work together as one towards their noble goal of bringing incline back to the universe.
A merry band of misunderstood outcasts on a mission.
From a lore standpoint I think CSM are the most fitting. But since I actually used to collect Dark Angels in my emo-edgy phase I'd be ok with Space Marines, too ;D
And Orks are neat as well. MOAR DAKKA.
Come to think of it, anything but space elves really! Even 40,000 years later my hatred for pointy ears has not diminished in the slightest. Halp! I think I might be a racist.
