Best Thousand Sons detachments 11th edition · ranked by winning lists
Every Thousand Sons detachment, ranked by how many winning Thousand Sons lists played it, with what it changes on the dice in our own words and the units it lifts most. No winning Thousand Sons lists in the last two months, so they're in order of what our maths says they add.
A winning list here is one that finished in the top quarter of its event. An army can take up to three detachments, so the shares add up to more than 100%.
