    How to build CONSISTENCY

    16/03/2026 | 32 mins.
    Hey guys, after a few recent tournaments, I thought I'd put my thoughts down on how to develop some consistency. If anyone recalls I talked about this a few episodes back, talking about choosing better lists for tournaments, and playing things in my ballpark that I know well.So I thought I'd do some content around how I've built consistency in my tournament runs, and go through my BCP for the last year on what I've been up to.I've worked through the importance of memorizing strong deployment patterns and opening moves. I try to deploy in similar ways every game because it removes mental load and lets me focus on reading my opponent and planning future turns instead of solving the same problems repeatedly.I also cover building redundancy into your big output turns, so that if something fails—like a key roll or unit—you still have backup plans and overlapping threats to keep your game plan intact.Finally, I talk about meta awareness, understanding your army’s damage output, and staying mentally and physically sharp during long tournaments, which are all key to performing consistently across multiple rounds.02:01 Tournament Recap and Lessons05:02 Tools for Matchups Atlas06:44 List Building for Consistency16:05 Deployment Patterns and Terrain24:27 Redundancy Sequencing and Mindset

Overall we both feel this was a pretty much 'phone in job' - GW really left a lazy feeling with the community here, and especially for a BDS that's the last of the edition.The Ultramarine changes were great, and David has done a deep dive into the UM changes on his member section.
