Next week we will not be having an episode because the Keystone Masters tournament will be happening at https://www.twitch.tv/keystonemasters - Tettles and Dratnos are casting, and Trell is competing! In addition to some discussion of that tournament, we covered tank balance in Shadowlands and the downward power trajectory of the tank specs over the course of the Beta testing period, and of course we cover the Development Update from Watcher (read that here: https://us.forums.blizzard.com/en/wow/t/development-update-the-road-to-shadowlands/638371) Check out our Patreon at https://www.patreon.com/titanforge Come join our Discord: https://discord.gg/6BcJ3Tu Music: Take a Chance by Kevin MacLeod (incompetech.com) Licensed under the Creative Commons 3.0: By Attribution license.

This week we're covering a series of changes that, when viewed together, represent a shift in how Mythic Plus will function in Shadowlands compared to Legion and BFA. We also spend a little time talking about the upcoming Keystone Masters tournament (it's on the 19th and 20th), with its unique format - this will be discussed more in a future episode!
