Interesting but very small sample sizes on a lot of those factions. Only 7 games logged for high elves, 3 for dark elves Vs 24 for Bret's for example
an interesting variation on my usual playstyle, which is 'charge forward, forward for the love of khaine, we can fight better than any of them and they can't shoot into melee why is our armor so thin ohgodcannons'

The flagship Brets, WoC (in an edition where shooting is badly nerfed) and Empire with multiple Demigryphs and Stank.

I could have picked this lineup with my eyes closed.

Even at 24 games for the most played faction, the sample size is too small to say anything definitive about faction strength. Player skill plays too big a role in the results I'd say. And that could also combine with Brets, WOC and Empire shining. If the high level, power gamers think those are the strongest options, then that's what they'll pick. And then if the factions are equal in strength, the better player will come out on top. Even more so since they're more likely to look for and find the strongest options in a given list, compared to someone who just wants to bring an army that looks like what he thinks the army should look like.
For Nagarythe: Come to the dark side.
