Custodes List I have found success with so far in 11th

Honestly, ended 10th with a 5 game loss streak, started 11th with 3 games of 2 losses and 1 win, until I switched to this one.

It feels soooooo nice to have that 4fnp ability and strat (against pshy and mortal) to use. Although I prefer 2 tanks rather than 1, i find it that even if you have at least one the opponent respects you more and don't overplay their hand giving me space to maneuver with BC on wardens. I did away with our wonderful Allarus and chose to have TJ with his wardens as my deepstrike/rapid ingress threat which has made the life of my opponents rough so far. It feels weird because trajans full potential comes from Lions but my dreadnoughts get true power in this combination of detachment (imo). I know spears are statistically better but A. Axes look cool, B. with shield host I can increase AP to 2 or even if i stay with crit-5s thats still a lot of volume to save through.

Took me 3-4 years of being a very bellow average player, and even now i consider myself mediocre to death but hey, goes to show if you keep playing and enjoying it, you'll eventually become better at it.
