The hosts debate the Sage ban-and-restricted announcement, listing bans and unbans (including Rake the Embers), and argue it leaves Kayo largely untouched, risking a Kayo-mirror-heavy Pro Tour Yokohama. They criticize preconstructed deck considerations influencing bans, discuss which Kayo pieces should have been hit (e.g., Beaten Trackers, Wild Ride, Buck Wild, Bear Fangs, or even the Claw), and estimate Kayo could be 50–60% of the field without an emergency B&R. The episode includes recent tournament recaps from ProQuests and Montreal, plus discussion of upcoming events, LL-point implications, and reactions to a new lightning-focused set featuring Aurora, Oscilio, and the new lightning illusionist Zyggy, which they fear may be format-warping.
