A Logical Proof
1) Banning Sand Rush is philosophically equivalent to Banning Sand Force (only broken on 1 mon, can easily argue they are inherently broken due to perma weather)
2) Unbanning Sand Rush would require an Excadrill Ban
3) An Excadrill Ban would make Spikes broken
4) Banning...
This but unironically.

ban wrap (and others?) and you don't need a fight button, just saying

We can do pools, but assign everyone a weekly opponent within those pools
- gives more flavor to weeks 1 and 2
- simplifies scheduling instead of coordinating with 3 opponents simultaneously
Example pool of A B C D
Week 1
A vs B
C vs D
Week 2
A vs C
B vs D
Week 3
A vs D
B vs C
