Make some research in ''Tournament Discussions''.
But the 8th ed. is rather new and so everything is in fluid.
As a trend, you might consider an UM army led by Guilliman or an AM army. AM is probably the best army out there in the 40k universe atm.

From what I have read in the forums, IG seems top tier but YMMV.

Find a way to get tons and tons of Conscripts for really cheap, like 100 conscripts, and then a commissar or two, and then fill out the rest of the army with anti-tank options because those Conscripts will be all the anti-infantry you'll ever need.
It's the current cheese. Talking to a GW manager, hopefully we'll get a 'Chapter Approved' sometime in the Winter that'll fix the shenanigans like that, but until then, throw a ton of models on the table and win.

I've seen armies with Conscripts. A bulb of Conscripts in the centre of the table slowing moving forward. Its a boring way to play.
