This ep is mostly about team comp, the pairings process, and the overall team 40k experience. This is in part to make it more applicable in a post 9th ed world.

On this episode of 40k Frontiers, the crew explore the wide world of 40k team tournaments, often touted as the ‘best way’ to play 40k. We hear from each of our hosts about Team tournaments and their personal experiences regarding the format, what they find and how their local meta have adjusted/ adapted to them. Towse provides an overview about his experience at the recent NZ Team Championship, Sam and Towse interview Dan Lister from the Twisted and Salty, about the NZ Team Champs, and we hear from Sam Lemin about his and the ACT teams growth and development as they ramp up for the Australia and New Zealand Team Championships. To wrap things up we answer some listener questions. Want more? http://www.patreon.com/bestintabletop

This week on 40k Fight Club we're looking into how the meta has adapted for Custodes and Tau. With a lower number of GTs comes a lower winrate for the top two factions, as some surprise upstarts hit their stride. We'll be covering all this and more on part 1 of this weeks episode. Part 2 will see us discussing the meta's adaptation and whether we think it will last long term and continue lowering the winrate of the top armies, or prove to be a flash in the pan, and answer your listener questions.
