What is everyone's prediction for top 3 armies in the 40k champs?

Im thinking:
Necron + ally
GK + ally

I was close to predicting at least the first 3 list/armies perfectly.

Got damn. Lots of Necron/CSM combos. TK got it right! Find it hilarious that Brandt and Kopach are taking the same list and both doing well.

Matt DeFranza is always killin' it with that nasty Seer Council list too.

Note that pic is for overall where battle is only 1/3 of the points. The top 16 by record is bound to be quite different.

That is possible. Last year I had won a game or two by mere victory points. Though I still made it into the final 16th ranked 9th or 10th.

I'm just curious to see some of these lists. Nick Nanavati wiped my Paladin/Necron army hardcore last year in the final round of NOVA. Wonder if his list this year bears any resemblance, lol.

Okay, sorry guys.

That is overall (with paint and stuff).

Going to remove that list and still working on getting the actual top 16 in battle points only.

Yeah, I was 5-0 or whatever and feeling good. Then I saw his list and knew I was going to get spanked. Paper to my rock.

Well, I couldn't get the top 16 list, so I just took full pics of the overall standings (at least the top couple pages), and you can deduce it from there using the battle points.

Tony doesn't look like he has an army built to handle crons. It might be a hard trek for him to make it again. I think i am pulling for spag and his necrons/csm. The nid army is most likely dual flyant and tervigon spam. Dont see another nid build doing that well.
