Vik & Dave Smash Leicester Super Major Ep. 9

Hey All,

Vik (ITC Rank #1) and Dave (ITC Rank #4) back again with episode 9 of Fireside 40K. In the last episode we discussed what we'd both be bringing (Thousand Sons souped with Chaos Daemons) to the 240-Person Leicester Super Major and we're back in this episode to discuss how we got on!

We attended this event with 5 of our Dice Down teammates who we just want to give a little shoutout to: all of them ran through to a positive win/loss at the event. Malik took his GSC to 25th place 4-1, Alex Petford running the Tsons/Daemons took 29th place also with a 4-1. George (Imperial Knights), Konrad (Craftworlds/Quins) and Jim (Drukhari) all came in with a solid 3-2 record. Big shoutout to Feliks (Konrad's brother) who gave Alex his one loss using Tau and took the narrowest of 1-point losses to Mike Porter in round 5.

Dave narrowly missed the top cut to 4 players but finished the event with an incredible undefeated 5-0 and Vik went on to win the event with a 7-0 run!

In this episode we go through a deeper analysis and tactical insights into the games we played during the event and our feedback on the lists we ran. We also touch on the meta as a whole and how things are shaping up as we get closer to the final event of the season - LVO.

We hope you find the discussion useful and as always welcome your feedback to help us keep the show interesting and informative. See you by the Fireside!
