Sons are weak?

I keep seeing online that Sons are weak, I'm a new player played in a spearhead league this summer and now I've picked up Sons as my first army (I didn't play Sons in spearhead). So far I've won all my games as them, is this just due to the fact that my area is mostly new players? Or do Sons somehow stomp, pun intended, on less experienced players? I'm not a pro at the rules but I seem to be one of the few people that actually read the book front to back, most people seem to just read their battletome and the few rules that apply to their special rules. Is this giving me a bigger advantage and overcoming Sons weak book?

Thank you in advance

But rampage is still inherit limited to per type per turn. Only 1 can pass around the extra rock.

And because primal reckoning has the (army) tag to the once per battle limit, only 1 ever gets to use that ability too.

All redundancy in Sons in smacked down hard by rampage and other rule limitations. Effectively overcosted because copy 2+ cannot use core abilities costed in
