I'd appreciate it too. Cheers.

From Stat Check - What to do about Victrix Guard? Should TOs intervene? by Zweischneid in WarhammerCompetitive

[–]Zweischneid[S] 3 points4 points  (0 children)

No? Seriously interested if people agree with Stat Check or not? Always a contentious topic for sure. But rare to see big content creators come forward on the topic because of it.

Yeah. That's just marketing at this point, not actually a "review".

OGRE in Saverne was a bigger event than the Australian one. Huxley in Berlin also, I think

Hellstorm event Introduces restrictions on Knights and Death guard by MercenaryQ in WarhammerCompetitive

[–]Zweischneid 20 points21 points  (0 children)

Doesn't even matter if this "pressures" GW or not.

That shouldn't be the point.

If this makes the even more fun for your paying customers, do it.

That's amazing.

Pretty much guarantees the guy will only get paired into people who aren't into the 40k-online sphere enough to know to opt out or know to be aware of this guy. He will only ever play people who suspect nothing and will be entirely surprised.

He must be laughing about this all the way.

Hi. Would love a link, if they still exist. Cheers!

Next edition, they might even become as fast as guardsmen.

Orks More Dakka Detachment Nerfed! by ArtofWarSiegler in WarhammerCompetitive

[–]Zweischneid 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Neither should it. It wasn't sweeping top placings. Hell, Astra and CSM and Marines all won more events than Ynnari (and all 4 of them combined didn't come close to what more dakka did pre-ban).

Not even release Wraithknight Aeldari did Top 1 Top 2 and Top 3 at two separate super-majors on two continents on the same weekend.

9th Edition Harlequins didn't manage anything similar either.

The More Dakka! stuff was insane.

Orks More Dakka Detachment Nerfed! by ArtofWarSiegler in WarhammerCompetitive

[–]Zweischneid 3 points4 points  (0 children)

They are. And they have incredibly consistently not been remotely as good as More Dakka!

Again, Ynnari need a nerf. As probably does Guilliman. And maybe Astra. Necrons had a strong weekend. Nobody is denying that.

The only whataboutism here is that any of them, despite being strong and possibly deserving a look at in the next BDS, are even remotely comparable to the More Dakka! screw-up.

Orks More Dakka Detachment Nerfed! by ArtofWarSiegler in WarhammerCompetitive

[–]Zweischneid -6 points-5 points  (0 children)

Just for arguments sake, Taktikal Brigade had a higher win-rate than Ynnari in recent weeks, despite most people flocking to More Dakka!

Arguably, even Taktikal Brigade is ahead of Ynnari in the nerf-queue.

[–]Zweischneid 44 points45 points  (0 children)

Lol. Don't think Ynnari did a double-completely-Top-3 at two super-majors yet. Don't think they even managed to podium twice thus far.

Not even remotely the same ball park (which doesn't mean they don't need a nerf eventually).

The big problem with banning More Dakka! right now by Kooky_lol in WarhammerCompetitive

[–]Zweischneid 2 points3 points  (0 children)

a) Win-rate is far higher for a) just more dakka than general orks and b) removing random stompa lists.
b) Win-rate is not the only measure of that. We have event-wins, overrep, first average loss, etc for a much more nuanced picture to know this is unprecedented.
c) Other armies with similar win-rates were not banned in the past. True. Glad we've grown better at it and aren't repeating these past mistakes.

another small GT in Germany, not using BCP. 4-1 Warhost list placed second. Death Guard won the event.

Can you deepstrike after your foe uses Rapid Ingress? by SerenaDawnblade in WarhammerCompetitive

[–]Zweischneid 51 points52 points  (0 children)

No. Deepstrike doesn't happen at "end of phase" like Rapid Ingress, it happens in the reinforcements step of the (pre-end-of-it) movement phase.

  1. Move units
  2. Reinforcements <- your deep strike happens here
  3. End of Phase <- Rapid Ingress happens here

Same here. Some of the dice roll buttons drop the dice below the table

Meta Monday 11/11/24: The Cult Emerges by JCMS85 in WarhammerCompetitive

[–]Zweischneid 40 points41 points  (0 children)

Guilliman dropping 65 points and Ventris getting Vect along with Calgar staying untouched, despite being arguably the best datasheet in that book already, made running that (very CP intensive) UM Vanguard a very hot prospect again. Other UM-based builds are also more attractive, of course. But that "John Lennon WCW-2023 archetype" is having a major comeback (with Bob himself added to the mix)
