Kaido may (definitely) be biased towards Zoans, Yes.
Ancient Zoans even more probably.

Something to note:
Most of Big Mom's crew are Paramecias, while Kaido's are Zoans.

Logias might be intended to be a bit too rare to base your crew around but I have a feeling that Blackbeard might fill that niche.

Most crews don't seem to have more than one Logia outside of the Marines OG three admirals. Probably just too rare and sought after. If we see more than one Logia in a group I'm betting it's going to be some celestial dragon security team.

Exploration is ill-advised.
The thing is that Zoans are multiplicative while Paramecia are additive (Logia kinda vary); even idiots benefit from Zoans when they're already brutally strong. Makes sense given Kaido's whole thing is brute strength in as biggest quantity as he can get it.

I hope the Straw Hats eventually get a Logia, just so we get more action scenes involving one of them. Of course, it'd be kind of funny if the Logia is some incredibly lame, useless substance and it's Usopp who gets it.

I'm looking forward to the fight between Brook and Apoo. Battling with music!

It's going to be 3 chapters in the style of Toki and Skwisgaars guitar battle at his audition. The anime better have it all be entirely musical as well, where everyone sings everything until Soul King is triumphant.

Drake was shown to be tangentially related to Kaidou in the past, his dad was the Marine that was trading the Ope Ope fruit in Law/Rosinante's flashback.

Drake originally left the Marines because he wanted to go after Kaido out of revenge for killing a fellow Marine. So it was always weird that he joined up with Kaido.

Drake's Vivre Card very explicitly points out that he has an interest in Law and Luffy's alliance. I bet a crisp 100 Belly that he's joining up with them.

I feel like Blackbeard is basing his army on accumulating as many Devil Fruits in general - especially rare and powerful ones - as much as possible so others can't have them.

I can't find it now, but I remember at one point him alluding to both a hatred for Kaido and his leaving the marines having something to do with not being able to go after one of the 4 Emperors. Also he did attack one of Kaido's islands as our re-intro to him after the time skip.

It is interesting that there's so much revolutionary references tied up with him as well though. So it's possible that he's a Revolutionary Army mole and could be acting to help Luffy like Ivankov did.

Drake was already on Kaido's team after the timeskip: He attacks Caribou who had just finished liberating the island from Scotch (the guy Drake attacked pre-timeskip because he knew Kaido would retaliate if he did).

We're probably going to find out his deal this arc anyway.

You're right, it was just before time skip. It happened when we got the check in with the Supernovas and the scattered Strawhats.

Something inside me calls out passionately to the landscape I saw - the end of the sea of corruption to which you led me.
I'm gonna go ahead and call that the Numbers are likely Oni. It's the smoothest way of explaining Kaido's situation. He's an oni who ate a mythical eastern dragon devil fruit. I wouldn't bother calling them oni if it wasn't pointed out that they're all messy drunks like him. And obviously they'd most likely hail from Onigashima.
