Thread: WH40k Race rankings

So I have been getting mixed responses all over on what the top races are and what order they come in.
I think that it would go like this

Eldar
necrons
Space marines
Daemons
Tau

What do you think?

lawl at necrons number 2......necrons must be wrecking face everywhere!

Also Noah I think you left out imperial knights

Otherwise your list is consistent with what is discussed on the podcasts and what has been discussed in the atc and bao results

I understand our meta here is different and we may have different results locally

Also daemon summoning may be #1 once people learn how to use it in a tournament

Good post

Imperial Knights are most often used as allies.


I think necrons are top 5.

Command barges OP
I lost to them really bad, that factors in to.

And I dont think Tau are at top of list. Buffmanders now cant join eldar or rip tides, eliminating one of there top deathstars and many builds that are used. There anti high armor (13+) is lacking. Once markerlight support is out, eldar can just jink them. They struggle against imperial knights. In friendly games sure there still op. But in the competitive scene, I just feel they dont have the same strength as before.

I don't think you play against Tau enough.

For real
