With the changes to Lootas (must roll for number of shots each time they fire, can no longer Mob Up) I expect Orks to suffer on the competitive level.
Ynnari are dead (the jokes write themselves). Craftworld-Kabal Flyers will likely take their place - less powerful without the ability to wholly block lines of movement, although it's still feasible if you bring enough of them.
Imperium Soup will be shy 1 additional CP to bring their Assassin friend, and one Knight lists will suffer durability concerns - multi-Knight lists usually spread the invulnerable saves around, and won't be affected by the Rotate Ion Shields nerf.
Interesting to note that Doom + Disintegrators/Haywire Cannons, Mental Onslaught, and Loota bombs were all nerfed - the main predators of Knights. Ultimately, I think this is mostly a wash for the Imperium, and a nerf for Xenos.
I expect we'll continue to see a lot of Imperium lists on top of the meta, followed by Tau, Eldar, and Chaos competing for second best.
