You might ban swordsman+++, since it's the forward only alternative for a King move minion.
Notice that you kept some broken destroy pieces like base Necro.

OK, swordsman+++ is on the short list for being banned. I will decide over the weekend.
Is base Necro broken? It never seemed that bad to me (though I think I've only ever played against it with the AI)... but I'll consider it. It will help if others post an agreement with your position.
Imo freekills (e.g. Range 2 destroy) is broken in general, since it defeats the idea of a minion structure.
Necromancer also gives the discounted Skelleton+++ as a bonus.
In Ryans guide Necromancer0 has an excellent rating along with stall pieces like Dryad and other free kill pieces like Ranger (In common and rare only Dryad0/+, Ranger+ and Millitia0 are rated excellent too in the guide, iirc, but some legendaries like pride would pretty sure be on a simmilar powerlevel and VM++/+++ ofc OP).
But notice, if you ban all free kill pieces, then Lich+ and base, while being much weaker than Lich+++, will get pretty uncounterable, so they would need a ban too.
Uh... So how many/which pieces would I be banning (apart from the fairly large list of already banned units) if I did this?
You would Ban Necromancer0,+, Ranger+, Lich0,+, FireElemental0, Ranger0 and VoidMage0: 5 Units/ 8 tiers and probally additionally usable Range2 poison: (Alchemist0-+++ and PoisonMage0): 7 Units/ 13 tiers
