Necrons Nudge Back on Top: Warhammer 40k Tournament Results

by | Mar 12, 2024

Over the past weekend, 8 large Warhammer 40K events took place, with a minimum of 26 players participating in each event. The process of determining the top three players is based on their win records and total battle points, rather than the strength of their schedule. Throughout the weekend, a total of 24 Warhammer 40K 10th edition lists were featured, representing 15 distinct factions. After a ton of events in the last two weeks, we’ve finally caught a bit of a break with fewer events and the continuation of a select few factions rising ever so slightly to the top. Necrons lead the pack, but there’s a return of World Eaters, which comes as a surprise to many, as most of the internet thinks they are one of the weaker factions due to recent nerfs.

Things are looking really healthy right now, with the current meta showing a surprising amount of variety week to week. However, things are about to change as we approach the release of the T’au Empire and the inevitable gunlines that will show up at your LGS, making everyone freak out.
