The great Tau freak out seems to have only lasted for only a week as the complete dominance of Custodes continued, taking 11 top 3 spots out of 27 possible over the weekend. With new Eldar still weeks away from showing up at events, we have to now concede Custodes are the top dog on the meta pile, with the Cherokee Open probably being the final nail in that coffin.
