Rationale

The card was banned in Pauper, Legacy, and Vintage due to its status as a sticker or Attraction card. For the Pauper format specifically, the ban was implemented because the card is the only sticker card present on *Magic Online*, and its removal helps eliminate a technical disparity between paper and digital play to preserve the format’s overall health. In Legacy and Vintage, the ban was enacted to prevent awkward gameplay dynamics in tournaments, specifically curtailing the feeling of obligation that players might feel to interact with the sticker mechanic, even when playing with decks featuring clone effects such as Phyrexian Metamorph.
