Awesome video but hygiene, you don't want to offend your opponents senses for 3 hours. Also bringing gum or mints to share with your opponent for post lunch breath.

My first tournament win: Win by holding objective and killing my opponents dwarf king. I am declared the winner by the judge/ owner of the shop. My opponent “technically I won that, I did pretty well” I followed up by reaching my hand out and saying “I’m okay with a draw, tie game well played.” My opponent then said “ok but I really won though.” I them said “listen, I won the game on both objectives that and you have no models left on the table, I’m giving you a draw that’s being generous” his response “ehhhhh let’s just say I won” I then withdrew my hand and then said “screw you”

Long time tourney attender here. Good video and good tips for beginners! It might be obvious to some, but i'd say the most important would be hygiene, deodorant, and one (clean) T-shirt per day. Everybody sweats at these events, stress, adrenaline, body heat ... Just check yourself. Honestly, the thing that annoys me the most is the smell of some dudes, even at 8am. Many times I had been assaulted by the agressive smell during 3 hours. Not cool. Don't be the smelly geek stereotype, it's not that hard...

I agree with everything other than the gotcha thing, If my opponent and i both know exactly what my or their army does and they make a mistake i'm going to capitalize on it. We are in a competitive tournament and i invested a lot of time energy and money to be there. Of course practice good sportsmanship but i'm not gonna sit there and tell them how to play their army. Now in a casual environment heck yea let's have fun and have a beer. I just feel like people who want to perform well always get a bad rap, especially in this community. Like no one is allowed to want to win at a GT like what the heck.

@Mr424242424242424242 Ай бұрын

Nah, what's killing 40k is the obsession with balancing around win rates of tournaments. And it's hard to say it's killing it, so much as it's burning a lot of people out over the frankly absurd things GW is doing with their constant mucking with the rules in place of proper playtesting and mechanical balance. The tournament win rate should only be a point of concern when an army is at either an extreme advantage or disadvantage, I'm talking win rates of 80% or higher, or lower than 20%. Because the tournament win rates do not account for differing levels of skill or investment, nor are they a sign of health for the army for good or ill. Get everything balanced mathematically as best as possible, with minor swings up or down on specific units for flavor to emphasize playstyles that fit the faction, and then leave it alone. And I'm saying that as an 18 year veteran TO.
