Questions

What is the meta in Warhammer 40k?

The meta (short for metagame) is the set of armies, detachments and units that are winning games right now. Players copy what wins, so the same picks show up list after list until a points update or balance change moves things on.

How does Tactical Reroll measure it?

We count winning lists from the last three months (a list that finished in the top quarter of its tournament, or went undefeated or lost one game where only records are published): each army's, detachment's and unit's share of them.

How are the army letters and unit tier lists different?

The letters on this page rank whole armies, from published win rates. A unit's letter ranks it within its army: the average of what creators gave it, or our estimate, dashed, where no creator rated it.

How often does it update?

We check for new tournament results every night. The army letters update weekly.
