To be fair, this is Club Champs. One should go in there expecting to fight the cheesy/meta lists.
So bets on how many people show up with three Leviathan Dreadnoughts in their lists? Taking bets on how many people are going to be bringing Doom 6?

3 arks, 3 doom scythes... it's a pretty competitive necron build.

Everything is now (more than) 3 colours. Sigh.
Detail work begins. Probably will spend the rest of the time on the characters.

Those things might not be able to slow down my main units, but their potential volume of fire results in something I'd prefer removed from the board ASAP.

I mean I think in general we are gonna see the higher level meta lists of each faction be that doom 6, triptides, eldar airwings, leviathans or others too. So of the missions might make for some interesting games since there is a lot more mobility in them then a lot of ITC events.

Agreed shannon. I've discussed this with matt and jordan as well. ITC net lists are a product of their modified rules set which essentially creates it's own unique meta. They are just the most talked about lists. I'm wrecking my brain trying to think of the last time a net list won club champs

Bruno brought his LVO list a couple years in a row and was pretty much unstoppable... however at the time he was also in the top 10 at LVO so his competitive 40k skills were extremely high - he probably could have done just as well with a regular list.

That was also when you could ally knights with Eldar, and formations existed that broke SO many pieces of the game. Mind you, there's still abusive lists out there, but the state of 40k as it stands today is a far cry above where it was when all of that ridiculousness was allowed.

Bleh, well I haven't touched anything since yesterday morning due to factors beyond my control. Don't look too closely at the Eldar characters this weekend Packing up the stuff that's not getting touched and bringing it down with me today so I have less to deal with while half asleep tomorrow morning. ... Bruno was a top tier player that would make every right decision in every game no matter the situations. You could swap lists with him and the result would still be the same. It was hard to hate the guy though, as he would always go over what you did right and wrong after he stomped you, and honestly made me a better player as I was just getting back into the game in that era.
