Competitive Innovations in 10th: Cybork Bullying pt.1

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.3

We've got Lowest of Men in charge today as we turn into the home straight, covering the final five tournaments from another bumper weekend. That includes: 2024 St. Louis Annual Last Minute Tournament (SALT) 4. Nurglemania (2-täger) War At The...

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

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...

Competitive Innovations in 10th: A Challenger Approaches pt.1

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...

Competitive Innovations in 10th: Good Guard pt.2

After nearly three months, it’s time for another quarterly update for Warhammer 40,000 and this time it’s just points. Today’s points update gives us updated points for every faction in the game, though as usual some have been touched...

Competitive Innovations in 10th: Good Guard pt.1

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.2

Two flavours of Space Marine, Daemons, Tau, some elves still somehow - lots more variety on show today as Lowest of Men takes the lead for part 2. Today we're covering: The Los Angeles Classic GT '24 Vanquish 2024 ADFWGA-ANZAC Cup...

Competitive Innovations in 10th: Variety Show pt.1

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...
