Make each kick add more time to a cooldown before the host can kick again. It still allows kicking but prevent aggressive kicking for nonsense reasons like not following the meta.

Or change the meta often enough to remove any clear ideas of what the meta is.

Many years ago when I played MTG we had a random buff and a random debuff every game night so that powergamers couldnt always dominate with the same deck.

Tonight... anything requiring green mana costs 1 extra uncolored to cast and artifacts cost 1 uncolored less to play.
