If you guys really want a card unbanned, it's sangan.

 

Meh level, good effect, very few decks where it's utility shines, (especially given how ynchrocentric is outdated on the whole and/or just requires too much dedication in either the main or ED), and the only true problem with this card is a limited card.

 

Was honestly never the true problem, and unlike most of the cards spoken about today, has actually gotten worse with time. Pendulums don't do enough for this, as they require a tuner/tribute/etc. to really make it function, which means decks that are pure pendulum with just Yuki/Veiler don't reap enough rewards off of it, and neither Superior Dragon Magician nor Luster Pendulum, the Dracoslayer have good interactions with it, though Red Wyvern helps the former very slightly.

Shadolls could use this. They'd have to Normal is first, but they could use it. Dunno how helpful that is other than getting Hedgehogs to hand, I know they prefer to mill Falco so it revives. 

The fact it needs to be sent to the graveyard from the FIELD is what stops it being busted, rlly; the only reason it's banned is cause it's generic and every deck that sees play has better searchers anyway.

This could go unbanned, I agree.

Top decks this format wouldn't play it, that much is fair.  

  1. Yang Zing? No
  2. Nekroz? No
  3. Majespecter? No
  4. Igknight? No
  5. Speedroid? No
  6. Magician (+variants)? No
  7. Infernoid? No
  8. Tellars? No
  9. Zefra? No
  10. Ritual Beasts? No
  11. Yosen? No
  12. Volcanic? No
  13. Greydle? No
  14. Qli? lolno
  15. Aromage? Doubtful as funk, but it is a slow deck
  16. Blackwings? No
  17. Shaddoll? Rare deck that can really use it semi-effectively, still unlikely
  18. Performapal? Could work with Sorceror in theory, but the deck has 3 in-theme searchers with better levels and types, so no
  19. D/D/D? No
  20. Superheavy Samurai? possibly, but that's monster mashy anyways so finding sangan is tough and soulpiercer is a better sangan @3
  21. Melodious? No
  22. Fluffal? No
  23. Raidraptors? No
  24. Noble Knights? No
  25. Burning Abyss? No
  26. Kozmo? No

  40. Sharks? No
  41. Any Yuma deck? No
  42. Utopia.dek? No
  43. Thunder Family? No
  44. Star Seraphs (engine)? No
  45. Heroic Challengers  (engine)? No
  46. Empowered Warriors (engine)? No
  47. Clownblade's remnants (or even before 7/16/15)? No
  48. Artifacts/Traptrix/Hands/HAT variants? No
  49. HERO? No
  50. Synchron? Maybe, more likely than dolls. 

idc to name more, as rulers and prophecy don't fit anymore

 

1 deck seems like it would realistically use Sangan modern day. From casual and competitive. And I went back years. Dinorabbit was the last deck, bar Synchron, we've had to truly use sangan well, and that was only due to TGU making it shine despite being a glorified battle death searcher most times.

 

It's been creeped out for ages, doomed to endure the blame for TGU's bloody hands.

Yeah, it's far too slow and doesn't synergise with anything well enough for it to be @0. Tour Guide was the problem but that's limited and has better targets in the one deck it's actually played in.

 

We've established it's fine @1, but what do you guys think about it being at more than 1? I personally think that if Tour Guide remains @1 (which it should) then Sangan would actually be fine @3.

Havin Sangan back would be fun for the sheer troll factor alone.
