An early Banned & Restricted update, an apology from LSS and a format in a precarious position. What do these updates mean for the World Championship and the Living Legend meta, but more importantly, what does it mean for Living Legend as a format moving forward? All this and some interesting questions, plus discussions around polarizing match ups in this weeks pod!
