40K Fireside | Ep.4 | LGT Recap, Health of the Meta & Votann Nerf

Hey All,

Vik  (ITC Rank #1) and Dave (ITC Rank #3) back again with our 4th episode of 40K Fireside. On this episode we run through our experiences at The London Grand Tournament (Main Event & Invitational). We try to go deep into the analysis of the key factors involved in playing in huge events like this one that often extend well beyond the normal 5 rounds of a GT (Vik had 13 rounds between the 2 events!).

For Reference - a quick overview of the lists we took to the event [for more details please see the previous episode (Ep.3) of 40K Fireside or find them on BCP]:

Vik: CSM | Emperor's Children - Abaddon, Dark Apostle, Daemon Prince, Master of Possession, 5x5 Noise Marines, 10 Cultists, 2 Venomcrawlers.

Dave: Nids | Leviathan - Hive Tyrant, 2 Neurothropes, 9,9,4 Tyranid Warriors, 3 Tyrant Guard, 2x3 Venomthropes, 3 Zoanthropes, 2 Harpy's 

For more coverage on the LGT,  check out the London Grand Tournament facebook page which was run throughout the event by the fantastic team from the Contact Lost Podcast (a top quality competitive 40K podcast run alongside the brilliant Polish WTC team).

We also take a bit of time to touch on our thoughts on the meta as it stands before the next balance data slate as well as the unprecedented nerfs to Leagues of Votann.

As always we massively appreciate feedback and enjoy the episode!

Dave & Vik
