Coaching Matches: Live streamed games between professional 40k players focused on teaching you how to think, ask questions, and develop strategies like the pros. Strategy Session: A weekly session focused on a specific strategic (macro) or tactical (micro) concept. Popular series include the mission series, terrain series, secondary discussions, combat jank, and retrospective analysis of mistakes made during a coach’s games to teach you how to learn from the games you play. Master Class: A series which condenses a coach’s expert knowledge of a faction into a five part video series. The first focuses on the faction’s optimal playstyles. The second and third explain the key datasheets and how to get the most out of them using the faction’s strongest synergies and rules. The fourth zooms out to a macro perspective on suggested gameplans, matchups, how to deploy, utiltize terrain, choose secondaries, and much more. Lastly, the fifth video puts everything you have learned up to that point into practice walking you through high level professional matches demonstrating exactly what you need to do to win with your faction consistently and improve your gameplay! Faction Focus: There are several faction Focus videos each week, which will give you a snapshot of the ever-evolving landscape of what recent lists look like for that faction, tech choices and strategies that are performing well, advice on winning tough matchups, and community Q sessions. Faction Focus - Datasheets: A short form video series that centers on a specific datasheet relevant to the meta that you need to know. It details its significant rules and synergies, how it plays on the tabletop, and its weaknesses for when you fight against it. Know Thy Enemy: A detailed breakdown of everything you need to know about how to play against a specific faction. This series is done in two parts. 1) A macro perspective of the faction’s rules and datasheets and 2) A session showing you how to beat them on the tabletop.
