In a surprising upset, ForCo got first place at Adepticon this weeked. Does anybody know who the player was and what list they used?
Hi, the winner(i think is a belgian player) used those lists(you can find them in comments in Infinity Global Community Post)
They posted the lists on Facebook: List 1: Bruno said that the link in the first group was highly dependent on opponent and table factors, sometimes as a 5-member team, sometimes as multiple smaller teams.

I've met him at tournaments before and he's a fantastic player. I think again this shows still that's it's the player and not the army that wins.
It always was and probably always will be, battlefield and mission awareness is of paramount importance. To further elaborate on the subject and give a historical overview. The "its not your list its you" slogan was created to emphasize that its not what the list contains but how you utilize the list in accordance to the mission parameters that is important. And this is why any list and any army can potentially win against any other, yes thee are armies that have more obvious toolboxes or more stacked toolboxes, but the reality is the tactical usage of said tools is what is important.
