1st place Tyranids - love it biggrin.png

Apart from that there's a metric ton of Necron (main) with different allies. Mostly CSM and GKs with Cultists + Heldrake (who would have thought) or Draigo + Palas (again - who would have thought).

Daemons placed 7th - higher than any GK (main) army - just sayin whistlingW.gif I'm very excited to see how they will fare in the coming month.

Draigo + Palas seem to be still viable - either as main or allies.

Damn you smashing my dreams to pieces cry.gif! Turns out that I DIDN'T realize that.

Bah Grey Knights/Cron is such a horrible team-up style- and fluffwise. 6th for Daemons is quite nice anyway. Can someone provide a link for a more in-depth statistics? I would be very interested about the details as it is one of the first bigger tournaments this year...

No idea. Maybe buying Venoms for the expanded squad size? I think that's allowed under the rules, I could be wrong though. 

 

Does anyone know where the final results are? All I can find on the Adepticon website are the top 16 from the qualifiers on Sunday. It doesn't actually list the winners. 

http://bloodofkitten...nship-finals-2/ this page has the final 4 as well as their lists.

Thanks man. Adepticon site is a pain to navigate.

 

Huh, those top 4 lists are interesting. IG Blob props up two of them, Necrons prop up two, Paladins still going strong in the winning list. Stormtalon spam...wut.

dark eldar have to be able to fit in their transport to buy one. only 5 man wych or warrior can get venoms.

 

Ah I see

Basically it seems to be (yeah, an oversimplification) Flyers + Blob = Win.

 

Fliers kill, while being hard to kill in return.  While Blobs provide a durable presence on board, that the fliers need to try to kill.

 

And this is 40k 6th edition currently.

Blobs melt to Heldrake and flamers though, plus stuff like 'Cleansing Flame' (is it just me or do Purifiers keep getting better with every change in the meta?). Flyers are kinda retarded though. It's basically a case of 'cant beat em, join em'. 

 

I think once people get over the current infantry push and Flyer shenanigans (Tau are going to be doing a lot of work on that, they wreck both really hard), we'll see a tilt back to high AV wall/MC spam. Necrons have it but currently it isn't popular (sigh, Scythe bandwagon...), Daemons and Nids rely on it for their strongest builds currently. I wonder if the new Marine codex will make Landraiders relevant again. Plus you never know, Eldar might do interesting things with Wraithguard.
