🔥 Dominant Champions

Meta Breakers were untouchable — winning all 5 match wins and finishing with a +679 margin of victory. Three of their six players also placed in the top 3 individually (1st, 3rd), making it a complete team performance.

⚔️ Consistency Wins Teams

51% Winrate showed that even scoring gets you to the top. All six players finished within the top 34 individual spots — no dead weight, no standout single winner — yet they took 2nd place overall.

🎲 The Tiebreaker Drama

Four teams — M.A.D., Team Mauritius, Scotland Forever and Brimstone Enclave — all finished on the same 2 match wins apiece, with positions 5th through 8th separated only by game wins and battle points.

🌍 International Flavour

Team Mauritius flew the flag from the island nation, while North Sea Alliance featured players from Denmark and Germany. Scotland Forever made the trip south, showing the event draws players from far afield.

😅 The Wooden Spoon

Justplay finished last, but took it on the chin. The wooden spoon is a badge of honour at the Justice Series — worn with pride and plenty of good humour.

📈 Tough at the Top

Benjamin Savva (Meta Breakers) faced the joint-toughest schedule of the weekend with a 76% opponent game win rate — yet still finished 17th individually. Playing the best players around makes your own strong performances stand out even more.

⚡ Top Undefeated Players

Players who went 5–0 across all five rounds — a perfect individual record.

🌳 Sylvaneth — Volume & Performance

Sylvaneth combined depth (7 players) with the second-best average (3.43 wins), including a 5-0 performance from Mike Stewart. The best all-round faction of the weekend.

⚡ Four Factions, Four Perfect Records

The four undefeated players each played a different faction: Luke Morton (Ogor Mawtribes), Dan Bradshaw (Ironjawz), Mike Stewart (Sylvaneth), Casper Torres Karlsmose (Stormcast Eternals).

💀 Gloomspite — Tough Weekend

Gloomspite Gitz struggled most across the event, averaging just 0.5 wins across 2 players. The Gitz had a rough time in Manchester!
