GT Win Rates

As always, these are global stats from various sources around the internet.

Faction Win Rates over the Last 4 Weeks

This covers the period from 15th November to 6th December 2025.

Estimated Win Rates if the Player Skill Levels were Equal

That’s a mouthful of title isn’t it!?

Essentially, what I’m trying to do here is work out what the win rates would be if the skill levels of all the players were the same (Yes, I realise this is nearly impossible to calculateBut I’m playing around here).

How it works is by calculating the average Elo of all the players that have had matches since the September battlescroll dropped. This worked out as 435.2. I then calculated how much difference there was between a factions average Elo shown in our original win rate graph to this overall average. The difference between these two figures was then turned into a percentage difference over/under the 435.2 elo. I then increased or decreased their win rate by this percentage (But this isn’t as simple as deducting or adding the percentage different to the win rate – you have to work out for instance what 4% may be of say 53% and then apply that. For Example – 10% of 40% is 4%)

Battle Formation GT Win Rates

This data is calculated in the same way as the win rates for factions. This only shows data for subfactions that have reached 100 games played since the battlescroll dropped.

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 Age of Sigmar 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!). Neither to 600-699 rated players. Where we start to see the swell in players possibly chasing the factions with more favourable rules is in players rated less than 600 Elo.

To make it a bit easier to see the effect of higher skilled players, I’ve added the below chart this week which breaks down each factions player base as a percentage.

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 Fabien Chart

Fabien Barbusse is a top player in the AoS scene and a member of the Woehammer Discord who is one of many who points out any mistakes in the charts before we publish them. He stated he felt the most valuable chart would be a version of the one above, which shows the % of 4+ win results in a 5 game event compared to the other results.

% of Players with a Positive GT Result

Ideally you would want 50% of the players having a positive results for a truly balanced game system.

Consecutive Wins

This chart shows firstly the % of players with a negative result from 5 games at GT’s or GT+ in purple 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.

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

Light blue 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.

Battle Tactic Win Rates

This table shows the most popular battle tactic pairings for each faction.

Battleplan Win Rates

For those of you who are counted among our legendary Patreons, you can download the stats database below which now includes warscroll win rates and lists.

On top of this there is some added extras in the form of a faction dive into Seraphon.

Eduardo Rodriguez: This lumineth list is very interesting as it is very different to the popular scinari/bladelords lists that we have been seeing lately.

The subfaction ability will reduce the rend on all the weapons that target the big cow and the stoneguards, and the cow can reduce the rend on one other unit as well in the combat phase. Also, there are two ways for these units to get a 5+ ward save, by casting protection of hysh from inside the shrine, or when the stoneguard are on a controlled objective. This makes this block of models very hard to deal with, as the stoneguard can also get an extra attack from the  cow, and the stonemage can increase their rend on a 3+. Charging into this block is very dangerous and the opponent should expect to get slapped back very hard, also a countercasting the rune of petrification can really mess your plan if you get your hammers to strike last.

To help with the lack of mobility of this list the 3 hurakan units surely were running around, shooting flanking units, and stealing away the objectives.

Also, as in all the other lists we can see that the Soggy Light of Eltharion is threatening to engage heroes or monsters, it is interesting that this list doesn’t have a Scinari Enlightener which can make him etheral, but with all the dangerous and durable alarith block, opponents surely had a hard time killing this sneaky deadly hero, which can go from obscuring into obscuring until it reaches its target.

An interesting choice is the battle tactic scouting force, as the stoneguard haven’t got high mobility, but with flawless commander (+2 to the move characteristic of infantry units) and speed of hysh (+4 to the movement characteristic) the scouting stoneguard could go for the tactics. We also have the two units of windchargers that help with this purpose, as they can retreat and shoot/charge without getting mortal wounds, and even move 2d6 after this.

In general I believe that this list will be very good at controlling the center with the alarith units while flanking opponents with the windchargers, Eltharion and Sevireth which will also try to snipe out other threats.

Raymond Lane: This list is very interesting, getting away from the classic Scourge Rotigus in favor of more mobility, and with this map pack i can’t blame them. Most of these maps are spread out a bit and being more mobile can be beneficial.

8 flies with the points drop and lord of affliction works nicely together with the daemon prince as more of a scalpel (sp?) to deal with hero threats or killing small heroes with Avalanche is something that has been popular with Nurgle for awhile, but adding in the extra flies means instead of a mobile solo op, its more of a mobile fotress while Bloab and the reinforced kings hold down a point in the middle of the map or at home.

Aetherwrought it nice for the reroll charge and the pendulem to attempt some area denial. Not a bad list by any means, refreshing to see something that isnt 30 blight kings.

Stefano: First of all, thank you for the opportunity to speak on this platform. I’m truly happy and honored!

I knew this tournament would feature some of the best Italian players, with a metagame tending toward “monstrous,” and what better counterplay than an elvish -1 hit? Haha, jokes aside, I chose to bring this list for its incredible versatility. It’s a very solid Herohammer based on a castle build that’s extremely difficult to remove, solid melee damage, and DMG chips in the heroic and shooting phases.

While Eltharion played the dirty trick of disrupting enemy lines or threatening counter charges when I chose to keep him defensive, Sevireth was the army’s Swiss Army Knife: 18″ movement, the chance to spike shooting damage, his fantastic rampage, and tactical power throughs to steal objectives or retreat behind defensive lines to threaten cover fire again in the enemy’s phase—definitely my MVP for the tournament.

Honorable mention for the Ydrilans: after the points nerf in the last battlescroll, I started using them in place of the regiment of renown Callis & Toll, and I have to say they were a truly excellent replacement! They’re certainly less durable, but their constant teleport and the ability to perform a 2D6 movement in combat were definitely mind-blowing!

Ambrogio: Classic Magmadroth-based list. 1 runefather to boost 3 Ghyran sons. I preferred to take “Fiercely Competitive” instead of “Ash-Beard” to counter Durthu, Belakor rampage and Vhordrai’s Spell, all common monsters in italian meta. Incandescent Blaze is perfect to sniper heroes when they get close to boost enemy units. 3 Flamekeeper units are also good thanks to their 3+ to hit and 3 atk each, when they atk in combo with Runefather each unit can do 37 atk with up to rend 4 against monsters! lovely.

Enrico: The list was designed to address as many situations as possible. It ensures a strong presence on objectives thanks to the use of five Pyregheist units, but at the same time manages to find sources of damage in the three reinforced Banshee units and the Ghyran Kurdoss.

Scouting Force and Attuned to Ghyran are two tactics cards that work very well with the chosen subfaction and army. The frequently used “Master the Paths” and “Intercept and Recover” tactic combo is easily circumvented by hiding the heroes behind the mass of Ghosts.

GT Win Rates

As always, these are global stats from various sources around the internet.

Faction Win Rates over the Last 4 Weeks

This covers the period from 25th October to 16th November 2025.

Estimated Win Rates if the Player Skill Levels were Equal

That’s a mouthful of title isn’t it!?

Essentially, what I’m trying to do here is work out what the win rates would be if the skill levels of all the players were the same (Yes, I realise this is nearly impossible to calculateBut I’m playing around here).

How it works is by calculating the average Elo of all the players that have had matches since the September battlescroll dropped. This worked out as 435.4. I then calculated how much difference there was between a factions average Elo shown in our original win rate graph to this overall average. The difference between these two figures was then turned into a percentage difference over/under the 435.4 elo. I then increased or decreased their win rate by this percentage (But this isn’t as simple as deducting or adding the percentage different to the win rate – you have to work out for instance what 4% may be of say 53% and then apply that. For Example – 10% of 40% is 4%)

Battle Formation GT Win Rates

This data is calculated in the same way as the win rates for factions. This only shows data for subfactions that have reached 100 games played since the battlescroll dropped.

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 Age of Sigmar 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!). Neither to 600-699 rated players. Where we start to see the swell in players possibly chasing the factions with more favourable rules is in players rated less than 600 Elo.

To make it a bit easier to see the effect of higher skilled players, I’ve added the below chart this week which breaks down each factions player base as a percentage.

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 Fabien Chart

Fabien Barbusse is a top player in the AoS scene and a member of the Woehammer Discord who is one of many who points out any mistakes in the charts before we publish them. He stated he felt the most valuable chart would be a version of the one above, which shows the % of 4+ win results in a 5 game event compared to the other results.

% of Players with a Positive GT Result

Ideally you would want 50% of the players having a positive results for a truly balanced game system.

Consecutive Wins

This chart shows firstly the % of players with a negative result from 5 games at GT’s or GT+ in purple 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.

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

Light blue 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.

Battle Tactic Win Rates

This table shows the most popular battle tactic pairings for each faction.

Age of Sigmar: 4th Edition Meta Stats (September Battlescroll) – 9th November 2025

We’ve updated the method of calculating the Elo ratings into our Age of Sigmar stats, this includes an attempt to reflect both the tournament strength and the faction strength.

All of the results in this article are taken from Best Coast Pairings, , Ecksen, New Recruit, ChampionshipHub, Milarki, Mini Headquarters, Tabletop Herald and Longshanks. They include GT (Two day events) or GT+ (6 or more rounds) only.

For patrons, you’ll be able to download and play with the database as well (which includes all the lists and stats for all the factions) as reading this weeks Patreon only analysis of Seraphon.

As always, if you’re struggling to read a chart, you should be able to right click and then either view or download the image.

GT Win Rates

These are the first stats we’ve done in a while and things are looking a bit different despite it being very early days. As always those factions in bold should be taken with salt, as we feel there’s possibly not enough data there.

Faction Win Rates over the Last 4 Weeks

This covers the period from 18th October to 9th November 2025.

Estimated Win Rates if the Player Skill Levels were Equal

That’s a mouthful of title isn’t it!?

Essentially, what I’m trying to do here is work out what the win rates would be if the skill levels of all the players were the same (Yes, I realise this is nearly impossible to calculateBut I’m playing around here).

How it works is by calculating the average Elo of all the players that have had matches since the September battlescroll dropped. This worked out as 439.2. I then calculated how much difference there was between a factions average Elo shown in our original win rate graph to this overall average. The difference between these two figures was then turned into a percentage difference over/under the 439.2 elo. I then increased or decreased their win rate by this percentage (But this isn’t as simple as deducting or adding the percentage different to the win rate – you have to work out for instance what 4% may be of say 53% and then apply that. For Example – 10% of 40% is 4%)

Battle Formation GT Win Rates

This data is calculated in the same way as the win rates for factions. This only shows data for subfactions that have reached 100 games played since the battlescroll dropped.

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 Age of Sigmar 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!). Neither to 600-699 rated players. Where we start to see the swell in players possibly chasing the factions with more favourable rules is in players rated less than 600 Elo.

To make it a bit easier to see the effect of higher skilled players, I’ve added the below chart this week which breaks down each factions player base as a percentage.

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 Fabien Chart

Fabien Barbusse is a top player in the AoS scene and a member of the Woehammer Discord who is one of many who points out any mistakes in the charts before we publish them. He stated he felt the most valuable chart would be a version of the one above, which shows the % of 4+ win results in a 5 game event compared to the other results.

% of Players with a Positive GT Result

Ideally you would want 50% of the players having a positive results for a truly balanced game system.

Consecutive Wins

This chart shows firstly the % of players with a negative result from 5 games at GT’s or GT+ in purple 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.

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

Light blue 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.

Battle Tactic Win Rates

This table shows the most popular battle tactic pairings for each faction.

Battleplan Win Rates

For those of you who are counted among our legendary Patreons, you can download the stats database below which now includes warscroll win rates and lists.

On top of this there is some added extras in the form of a faction dive into Seraphon.

Top Three AoS Lists for the The Poisoned Dice GT

This is the top three lists for the The Poisoned Dice GT that took place in Mexico between the 1st and 2nd of November 2025. It saw 29 players vying to be crowned champion in a 5-game tournament.

Before I jump into the Top Three AoS Lists, I wanted to remind everyone of our friendly Discord server where you can join in the conversation with the Woehammer crew and suggest articles or series for the website.

Eduardo Rodríguez: This elvish list intends to be a threat to any one that tries to hit them hard. With the correct buffs, there are not many things in the game that can kill the units. And they should expect to be hit back very hard.
The bladelords in combination with the scinari enlighteners and eltharion play both roles, as anvils and hammers. The ethereal spell from the enlightener can bounce into a second unit, which in combination with the beacons of protection and the shining company make these units one of the hardest of the game.
Buffed up Eltharion can go himself on a quest to try to kill many threats in the game while the sentinels ensure that the opponent is always in danger of getting shot. Finally the riverblades are the unit that help with mobility and also prove a threat to any hero that is tying to hide away, and if the opponent reaches them they might escape combat by a stylish backflip. Once the castle is set it will punish any opponent that gets close by doing mortal wounds during the magic phase with the beam of hysh and the rune of petrification. This list struggles with board control because of the limited mobility of the castle but if it gets well positioned it can end the opponent on time to turn the scores after deleting their units.

Iván Moreno: Another Droth list for Fyreslayers fans, but with more salamanders than average. We’re not talking about 3-4 monsters, but 6 monsters with a 4 save and a 6+ ward, 96 wounds, and 10 mobility, averaging 20-30 damage (SoG Sons with Droth Helm). They can run, charge, and move during the hero phase, not to mention the deadly “Volcanic Blood” and the -2 rend ranged attacks against infantry (guaranteeing intercept and collect). Magmadroths remain an excellent option, given Fyreslayers’ lack of mobility and battleplans with many objectives. We’re talking about six hammers with excellent mobility (26 movement, with Rune of Relentless Zeal and Blazing Impetus) who, by round 1, are already engaged in melee combat with the enemy, and by round 3 can wipe out your entire army and easily score points for the rest of the game (restless energy). In this list, the duardin choose the battles thanks to their mobility, and if they go in packs, they ensure the elimination of the toughest enemy units. They are also excellent anti-monsters due to their -2 rend. What better screen than a Magmadroth? The loss of one or two monsters doesn’t affect the effectiveness of this list, since they don’t have a central unit because they share the same warscroll. Their weakness lies in not having a dispel ability and being an easy target for ranged attacks (unless the lizards reach your mages or ranged weapons first).
