New vs. Old Battle for the Top: Warhammer 40k Tournament Results

by | Jun 10, 2024

Over the past weekend, 10 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 30 Warhammer 40K 10th edition lists were featured, representing 16 distinct factions. The Necrons returned to the top of the pile for the weekend as we get a break between huge events coming later in the summer. It also looks like people have figured out  how to play Tau, as they have steadily risen in the meta.

As the meta waits for the new season, we got to see Knights make some headway into grabbing some podiums. However, it will be interesting to see if the changes to Titans and swarms will have any effect on both Knight factions or if this is just a blip on the road to irrelevance.
