Hey guys welcome to my 3rd installment of our January pre-LVO interviews. Sadly, no interview today due to audio malfunctions (Warpstorms…) however I do have the results for 5 GTs in January with Statistics on what armies are doing well, and which armies are underperforming.
Chapter Tactics is a 40k podcast which focuses on promoting better tactical play and situational awareness across all variations of the game.

Armies that have at most 1 loss stats in January: It is important to note, not all of these tournaments used the missions that will be seen at the LVO, however I think this is still relevant data because a lot of these players are going to the LVO and I think this is the closest relevant information we have to determining a meta at the LVO.
