If Magistrix survives this reset which looks possible, Method isn't gonna be that far behind. The practice time and knowing what to gear for Elisandre will certainly give exorsus and Serenity an advantage, but One extra boss of gear isn't gonna make or break the race.
Edit: also I'm trolling about pyrdaz because of all the people that keep saying "its not that bad" compared to the good legendaries available. I would be utterly astonished if there was a single dps using it unless they simply had nothing better available for the guilds that killed Auger. That fight is a pure dps check that phases get exponentially harder as they last longer, and people are already dropping healers to squeeze out a little bit more dps. The idea of dropping a ton of dps in favor of a random heal that doesn't line up when you want it is crazy. People are better off with the legendaries that give them a controlled heal than pyrdaz if they're going for the "shitty utility legendary" path.
