It's a whole new metagame (a few stragglers excepted) and the delightful scent of novelty is in the air. For some reason, it smells like fungus beer. We've got new points to take old favourites down a peg, and lots...

Competitive Innovations in 10th: A Challenger Approaches pt.2

James "One_Wing" Grover - May 2, 2024

Me again. Did you know there was a whole tonne of Warhammer this past weekend? That includes one event (Warzone: Dice Goblin) which I shamefully failed to notice had used the Dataslate and new Ork/Custodes books, so well done...

James "One_Wing" Grover - May 1, 2024

You're all at it again, I see. It's another bumper-sized 15-event week, so we're once again going for three parts. Plenty of the usual suspects are out and about, slamming a last few games in the pre-dataslate world, but...

James "One_Wing" Grover - April 27, 2024

Welcome back to part two of this week's Competitive Innovations. The astute among you may have noticed that this is a day later than usual, and that's because our team were hard at work on preparing our dataslate reviews...

Competitive Innovations in 10th: Good Guard pt.1

James "One_Wing" Grover - April 24, 2024

The metagame is (presumably) on borrowed time, and this week it's the Astra Militarum's turn to take a big swing at the Necron menace, with a reasonable degree of success. The Thousand Sons and Sororitas are getting in on...

Competitive Innovations in 10th: Variety Show pt.1

James "One_Wing" Grover - April 17, 2024

We're coming towards the end of the current metagame, with the activation of three new books and a Balance Dataslate all on the horizon, and with that in mind it's impressive and encouraging how diverse the top tables are...

James "One_Wing" Grover - April 12, 2024

It's Friday, so that means it's time for the epic conclusion of this week's Competitive Innovations, just in time for you to all go out and play more events. We'll get that boulder up the hill eventually. It's Lowest of Men...

Competitive Innovations in 10th: Five Alarm Phaerons pt.2

James "One_Wing" Grover - April 11, 2024

Part the second, in which there is more Warhammer. Controversial I know. We've got more Necrons, but we've also got those brutal Space Marines I promised yesterday, plus some great showings from Aeldari, Genestealer Cults and more. Let's dig...
