The final dice have been rolled. The last scores have been submitted. With the Leeds GT closing out the edition, the UKTC King of 10th Rankings have been finalised.
Across an entire 10th edition of Warhammer 40,000, players have travelled the country, battled through Super-Majors, GTs and sold out UKTC halls. Chasing results across the biggest events in the world. The King of 10th Rankings are all about consistency, commitment and the ability to keep performing when the field got bigger, tougher, and more competitive.
And now, we can celebrate the players who rose to the very top. Please join me in putting your virtual hands together for…
The King of 10th Podium
A huge congratulations to our overall podium:

1st Place - Nassim Fouchane
The King of 10th. A phenomenal edition-long run from one of the standout players of the circuit. Nassim’s results across the season demonstrate what this leaderboard rewards: elite performances, repeated across major events, against the strongest fields in the country.

2nd Place - Liam VSL
A name that has been at the sharp end of competitive 40k all edition long. Liam’s consistency, ceiling, and ability to deliver when it matters made him one of the defining players of 10th edition. Including 3 first place finishes at the biggest event in the world, the LGT.

3rd Place - Innes Wilson
Rounding out the podium is Innes Wilson (and Björn the goose), another player whose season was built on exceptional high-level performances. Finishing in the top three of an edition-long ranking is a massive achievement and a testament to both skill and staying power.
These three players did not just have good weekends. They built a body of work across the edition. That is what makes the King of 10th podium such an achievement.

Every faction has its own story across an edition. Different metas, different balance updates, different challenges and different moments to shine. Claiming Best in Faction means more than just being good with an army. It means sticking with it, mastering it, adapting with it and delivering results when the pressure is on.
A special mention has to go to Greg Chamberlain, who takes home multiple faction awards with Leagues of Votann and Tyranids. That is an incredible display of flexibility and performance across very different armies.
Why the Rankings Matter
The King of 10th Rankings were built to reward the players who turn up, compete and perform across the biggest stages in the UK, the UKTC super-majors.
One great result can make a weekend. But an edition-long ranking asks much bigger questions:
Can you do it again?
Can you do it at the next Super-Major?
Can you do it in a new meta?
That is what makes these standings special. The players at the top have not only had strong runs. They have shown up across the edition and proven themselves again and again.
The Road to King of 11th Starts Now
With 10th edition now closing out, attention turns to the next race and the next crown to be claimed.
The King of 11th Rankings will be earned the same way: by attending UKTC events, competing in big fields and putting together strong results across the edition.
There is no shortcut. If you want to be part of the rankings conversation, you need to be in the room. If you want to chase Best in Faction, you need results on the board. If you want to challenge for the overall crown, you need to show up across multiple major events and prove you can perform when it counts.
Our GTs and Super-Majors bring together some of the largest and strongest fields in the country, which means they are also the most important battlegrounds for anyone serious about the King of 11th race. The more players in the room, the bigger the opportunity. The bigger the event, the bigger the statement, the bigger the points.
So whether you are chasing the overall crown, aiming for Best in Faction, looking to break into the rankings, or just want to test yourself against the best players in the UK, now is the time to start planning your next events.
The King of 10th has been crowned.
Now the race for King of 11th begins.
