Rationale

Balls of Fire is banned in Legacy, Vintage, and Pauper because it is a card that brings a sticker or an Attraction into the game. This sweeping ban was enacted because the card's mechanical ability to interact with stickers or Attractions violates the current competitive format structure established for these three formats.
