Pauper Bans Seeker of Skybreak to curb Bow-powered combo

The Pauper Format Panel has banned Seeker of Skybreak to cut off an easy two-card combo with Hawkeye’s Bow that could repeatedly untap and deal infinite damage, a play pattern they deem unhealthy for the format. Hawkeye’s Bow remains legal for now, as banning it could unlock other problematic interactions, and officials expect further bans around August if the pattern persists. The decision aims to avoid metagame distortion ahead of major events like Paupergeddon and Paupergenesis, while continuing to monitor other cards (e.g., Sneaky Snacker) for future action. Community feedback is welcomed as they reassess the format and data from upcoming tournaments.
