I know, that's why I said most top teir or army's that dominate.

AoS is interesting because there seems to be a distinct divide between competitive-minded armies and casual-minded ones with relatively few people landing in between.

Oddly enough you are right, there are really one two groups. Power gamers who make too tier lists. Or people who don't give a crap about it and just make an army based around cool units and that's it. I have yet to meet players who claim a "fluffy" list or any thing of the sort.

To be fair there isn't a lot of fluff yet and history to make those tyes of lists. I think you'll see it more as the game gets flushed out and more "battles" as recorded and forces and such.

Personally I really enjoy aos. And locally we've had the same guys winning whether they bring soft or hard lists. I think the there isn't much tactical depth and that lists dominate instead of players is a bit off. There is a lot there in my opinion. It's going to be my primary game after nova is over. And that's only because the ghb 2 came out one week to late.

I enjoy both the casual and competitive side, but I am fortunate enough to have a community that knows the difference. But lists I bring to regular games I wouldn't bother bringing to a tournament, while my friends literally won't play against my tournament lists on a normal day even if I tried to bring them.
