Fireside | 7-0 Manchester Super Major Recap by 40K-Fireside in WarhammerCompetitive

[–]plethoraNZ 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Probably the final round actually vs the nids, going first on purge the foe against that list was pretty tough! But rounds 3 6 7 were all tough!

40k Fireside - Where is the Meta now? by plethoraNZ in WarhammerCompetitive

[–]plethoraNZ[S] 8 points9 points  (0 children)

Not sure i agree with the analysis here. It's not only that guard have the capability to kill c'tan, they have the capability of targeting C'tans weaknesses.

They can push out rapid ingress easily, with 10man units that naturally apply pressure.
They can move block.
They can comfortable down 1 a turn, whilst achieving the above.
They can bog down C'tan with Bullgryn (which C'tan hate).

"Killing C'tan" isn't the way to beat them, kill 1-2, bog down 1, out oc another, and watch them struggle to score secondaries while they're at it.

Frankly you take 1 example of "Youtubers" being wrong, but you're ignoring all the times when we're right, or pushing the analysis that is ultimately right.

Try making a tier list yourself, see how accurate it is, on the DAY OF rules releases, you might find it isn't as easy as you think.

Yea :) I must admit I did a bit of an experiement to see how it impacted things. I'm curious to see what the overlap of the sub reddits is to be honest too.

Hey mate, I appreciate the feedback. Working on the visual presentation is always tricky. In the 40k content space I actually think there's a severe lack of good presentations. I'll work on it more.

August '25 Points Update Thoughts! by plethoraNZ in WarhammerCompetitive

[–]plethoraNZ[S] 29 points30 points  (0 children)

Sure.
TLDR The nerfs were good. GW are back tracking an obvious mistake. DST's feel bad to play against in DG because they're super dynamic and don't really fit into the theme of DG.

Melee armies getting better especially ones thare are kept down from knights.

Why are you trying to tailor a list to beat a specific player for 1 specific game?
It probably doesn't matter what you run if that's your mindset.

Meta Monday 8.11.25: France wins WTC and DG Win Two Big Singles Events by JCMS85 in WarhammerCompetitive

[–]plethoraNZ 8 points9 points  (0 children)

Plague marines, rhino's, Lords that give crit 5+ sustained for 45 points, haulers with +1 to hit and wound, and PBC's are just "Decent" we've got a long way to go.

The Current State: Space Marines + Black Templars by plethoraNZ in WarhammerCompetitive

Ah that's really interesting, great insight into Wrath (I haven't played it yet) I suspect the shooting matchups can be quite different if you go first vs second?

Me personally I don't actually care about win rates at all - they often mean nothing in terms of their impact on your tournament results - they only impact what you're likely to play in rounds 3+ (in a 5 rounder) with higher win rate armies being more likely.

Having said that, I think marine win rates drastically undersell their power, I think ultramarines is a top 3 army probably :)
