“Fear not the howling winds, for we are the storm.”

– Leman Russ

August is over and so is its competitive season! A new Warmaster has taken its predecessor’s mantle, and now it’s time to take a look at the numbers from last month’s season and check how the rankings in High Terra (rating 3800+) and Low Terra (rating 2500-3800) have evolved.

Low Terra

It’s a Primarch rumble this month in Low Terra! Perturabo charges to the top of the ladder this season, solidifying his dominance, followed by Konrad Curze in the second spot. Leman Russ makes his mark at third, bringing the ferocity of the Space Wolves to the upper ranks and crushing Magnus, who still manages to secure the fourth rank. Finally, Alpharius rounds out the top 5 and the Primarchs introduced in the Hidden Dagger expansion, how will he plot his ascent next month?

Beyond the top positions, Hvarl Redblade remains a major threat with a strong win rate, together with Luther and Sanakht, who keep proving great Warlord choices for the current meta. The Warmaster might have not made it into the top, but he is still a threat to the ranked ladder, and it would be unwise to count Sevatar or the Callidus Assassin out.

High Terra

The top five Warlords this month are making the fight fiercer than ever before. It’s clear the recent changes to the Space Wolves had a big impact on their viability in the current meta. Leman Russ leads the hunt to the top spot, followed by Sanakht who still managed to hold on to a massive win rate. Hvarl Redblade and Caecaltus Dusk secure top positions as well with mighty win rates, while Balthazzar Dupain returns to the scene after a big leap from last month’s 8th place.

Outside of the top five, a few Warlords stand out with particularly high win rates. Lucretia Elunnirai has become a big threat showcasing an astounding 65% win rate. In more modest numbers, Jenetia Krole remains a strong force to be reckoned with, and Amon Tauromachian has also become a great pick for the current meta.
