Age of Sigmar: 4th Edition Meta Stats (1st September 2024)

A new edition calls for new stats, we’ve incorporated player Elo ratings into our stats, so you can now see what affect the elite players have on those pesky win rates.

All of the results in this article are taken from Best Coast Pairings, Stats and Ladders and Ecksen. They include GT (Two day events) or GT+ (6 or more rounds) only.

We’ve only included factions so far that have had at 20 players represent them at GT or GT+ events.

GT Win Rates

Only Bonesplitterz now remain as the only faction yet to meet the criteria for reliable data.

Disciples of Tzeentch have climbed to third this week following some strong results over last weekend, and this has also meant their win rate now just peeps back over the 45-55% area.

Nighthaunt and Lumineth Realm-Lords are have remained at 65% and 61% respectively for a second consecutive week.

Faction Popularity (Broken Down by Player Elo Rating)

This is perhaps the most interesting chart to me personally. Here you can see the spread of the player skill levels for each faction according to our Elo rating system (updated each week in line with the stats).

The dark blue shows the really elite players of 700+ Elo. Interestingly, they don’t seem to give a damn about which faction is performing well in the meta and rely on their own skill (as they should!). Two of the players with 700+ Elo are playing Flesh-eater Courts, the faction with the 2nd worst win rate currently. Two others are playing Skaven, the fourth worst win rate.

Both Nighthaunt and Lumineth have a larger number of 500+ rated players, and this in turn could be responsble in part for their stats being skewed.

A good example here, would be to cross examine the player Elo breakdown for Nighthaunt with their Win Rate. Nighthaunt have a win rate of 65%, however 36 players of the 141 that played them at events have an Elo rating of 500+

Elite and Rookie Players by Faction

The blue section shows the percentage of a factions players which have an Elo rating of 500 or greater. While the Orange shows the number of new players to the faction where they have yet to attend a tournament (based on our database history).

The aim of the above chart is to show how the lower rated players of between 300 and 399 elo are performing with the various factions. The figure in brackets denotes the number of games the data is based on. Nighthaunt and Lumineth Realm-Lords are both still at the top of the table, suggesting that these factions are both easier to claim wins with. At the bottom half we can see Flesh-eater Courts, Maggotkin and Kharadron all at sub 30%.

Faction Popularity (Broken Down by Number of Wins)

The above chart breaks down the faction popularity by the number of wins each player achieved at GT’s or GT+’s.

Number of GT Wins as Percentage

This chart shows the % breakdown for the number of wins players are achieving at GT and GT+ events.

Positive Player Results

The below chart shows how many players as a % finished a GT or GT+ with a positive result (more wins than losses).

Consecutive Wins

This chart shows firstly the % of players with a negative result from 5 games at GT’s or GT+ in light blue for each faction.

Dark blue shows the percentage of players who achieved 5 wins from 5 in the first five rounds of a GT or GT+.

Orange shows the players who achieved four wins from the first four rounds of a GT or GT+ but were unable to achieve the full house and lost their round 5 match.

Grey shows the players who achieved three wins from three wins but were unable to win in their fourth round match.

Yellow shows all other players aside from those shown in the first three categories, who were able to achieve a positive result at a GT or GT+ i.e. 3 or more wins.

The light blue shows the percentage of players unable to achieve a positive result with the faction at a GT or GT+.
