Why is Kyurem banned?

Kyurem-white, yes, but just Kyurem?

Come to think of it, why is Kyurem-white ban in the meta game and Kyurem-black not?

You were planning to have a 15 year old magical girl kill Witches by drinking them under the table!? It's original, at least.

It said something about lower speed and move pool, or something.

I still like using Kyurem-black, but that's at least half because of my ice team.

Not sure what inspired me to include zapdos but I guess it worked out. (Having two dragon types probably helped.)

Kyu-B is okay in OU because, while its Outrage is pretty terrific, its Ice Beam is less so. Ice is a fantastic offensive type and Kyu-W gets base 170 special attack. Not a whole lot resists it, so you can just slap Specs on that thing and faceroll over most OU Pokemon.

special rampardos?

w..w...why?

it's like using a fully loaded gun to bludgeon someone instead of shooting him. is that really a thing in NU ?
It's more like loading and using your gun instead of strapping some dynamite to it and throwing it at someone.  :P It should be a thing in basically any tier you'd want to use Rampardos. That Head Smash is really powerful, but chances are you will get only a single use of it before the opponent kills Rampardos or the recoil does. On the other hand, Rampardos has a ridiculously good special movepool to abuse with Sheer Force. With all the secondary effects from moves like Thunderbolt and Fire Blast, you don't even get Life Orb recoil.

252+ Atk Choice Band Rampardos Head Smash vs. 252 HP / 252+ Def Alomomola: 400-472 (74.9 - 88.38%) -- guaranteed 2HKO (Except not because the recoil from Alomomola's massive health pool will wreck Rampardos)
252+ SpA Life Orb Sheer Force Rampardos Thunderbolt vs. 252 HP / 4 SpD Alomomola: 455-538 (85.2 - 100.74%) -- 6.25% chance to OHKO

Nuke Rampardos has its uses, but it's really easy to predict and play around.

EDIT:

Close battle and excellent use of switches there by Person, but the day goes to me. Good game.

170 SPAT STAB 140 BP DM, LOL.
...
I apologize; I can never resist poking fun at alphabet soup.  While they have the same speed, Kyurem-W gets Draco Meteor on its primary stat, while Kyurem-B has to settle for Outrage unless it runs a mixed or opposite set on the more acceptable 120 Special Attack.  Glancing over Smogon's counters, Kyurem-W can apparently knock out any Pokemon in two hits except Chansey, even in Ubers, while Kyurem-B gets tanked by Jirachi or physically-defensive Steel types that can resist that Dragon-type STAB and don't have to worry about Focus Blast or K-W's Fusion Flare.  I don't know why not, though; it seems to me that 120 Special Attack is still nothing to sneeze at for something like Focus Blast. 

I threw together a somewhat hasty team since we seem to be pulling everything together.  Mixed cocktail of Pokemon I loved in the games, Pokemon in the three tournament teams I put together that I didn't get to really use (two of which didn't even get seen), Pokemon from a PbP game that I never got to use, and Pokemon I find cute.  I can already see a couple glaring weaknesses, but...
