345 Goes Wide: New 345 Format's Initial Ban List
As noted previously, beginning with the official rotation of the Standard format on April 5th, 2024, the 345 format will “go wide” and expand its card pool to include cards from sets prior to Sword & Shield—Battle Styles. On that date, the 345 Format will expand to include all rule-conforming cards that released from Sun & Moon base set and later, including Black Star promo cards from the Sun & Moon era and later.
An updated ban list is now available below. This expanded ban list reigns in cards from the Sun & Moon and Sword & Shield eras in the new 345 format. All prints of cards listed below will be banned in the format as of its update.
