yes ante cards are banned. I would be totally fine w allowing ante cards. in H250, we just replacement-effect errated ante zone to rfg zone.

i think the reason library is banned is not because of its power, but because of its $ cost.

in that case ban:
mana drain
imperial seal
grim tutor
ravages of war
tabernacle pendrel vale
bazaar baghdad
imperial recruiter
mishras workshop

the Library is a much broader card; literally every deck should run Library if you own one. also while the other cards do have a high $ cost they also have cheaper versions that function nearly identical to the higher cost ones. and take in to consideration that not every deck wants a workshop or can play a bazaar and that lessens the demand and playabilty of said cards.

one could say that some of these cards arent even the best in their class (debatable for Mana Drain). but as i dont make the banning rules, and as most of the cards have been banned from the start, this is just a guess and opinion.

Is there an updated banned list?

I built 2 decks
One has Reaper King the Other Is a Braids, Cabal Minion as Generals
( Yeah every one else did also)

I looked through this thread and saw some proposals by Vroman

One of my decks has Yawgmoth's Will and Kukusho

The other has Balance

Are these banned?

thanks

Will is the only legal card, suprisingly.

i would like to point out with the unbanning of riftsweeper they also noted that because the general sits in "the general zone" instead of RFG (like it did in the old rules) riftsweeper cant pull generals down

Staff of Domination?

Really??? That doesn't scream broken to me in any format ever.

I would think the ban of Rofellos would make the ban of Staff of Domination unnecessary,
