if you are having problems with lists, I can give a few tips.

1) If possible build your list for the opponents you plan to meet. this means doing your homework and learning about at least the basic capabilities of popular armies for your location, and understanding general themes (i.e. Nurgle is tanky, Slanessh hits hard and first, Seraphon are mobile). if you are able to know the battle plans ahead of time, also build to maximize the points there. for example I have an upcoming match in which not dying is more important that killing or objectives, so I swapped my Saurus warriors for guard and put them in an eternal starhost.

2) decide upon what you are trying to accomplish with your list. do you want a solid core with smaller outliers? do you want to overwhelm the opponent with bodies? do you want to use spells? do you have a type of model you want to play with no matter how bad/good it is?

3) what do you have available to you? are proxies allowed if you don't have the model?

overall this list is pretty solid with good board control and killing potential. All I would do is swap the salamanders for razordons as the salamanders need skink handlers to function while razordons do not have such a need
