Competitive Innovations in 10th: Slain by an Elf

James "One_Wing" Grover - July 12, 2023

OK so the good news first - a reasonable number of TOs have rushed to adopt last week's balance changes, so this week's results are somewhat less elf-oriented. Only somewhat though - between a mixture of some events not updating,...

Competitive Innovations in 10th: Aeldari Annihilation

James "One_Wing" Grover - July 5, 2023

That's annihilation by Aeldari, not annihilation of Aeldari, to be clear. We're in week one of full 10th Edition, and let's be honest that it's a little bit of a false start, because late last week we received both the Leviathan Tournament Companion...

Competitive Innovations in 9th: Daemonic Embers

James "One_Wing" Grover - May 17, 2023

9th Edition status: still here. Quieter than last week, but still live and kicking, and alarmingly infested with Daemonic forces this week. It's the season for it, apparently. Today we're looking at: Storm Of Silence Warhammer 40k Grand Tournament...

Competitive Innovations in 9th: Last Book Standing pt.1

James "One_Wing" Grover - May 10, 2023

Look. It's been a long old road, and we're nearly at the end of it. We're in the home stretch. Pithy metaphors abound. We don't know exactly how many weekends of 9th we've got left, but we're definitely in the...
