burnpsy Posted May 19, 2011 Report Share Posted May 19, 2011 This is an infinite, restriction-less +1-fest. Should never return. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I really don't think we'd see that much of a change. Just like putting crush card @1. It's not...that big of a deal. People only remember the cards for what they WERE.

.Rai Posted May 20, 2011 Report Share Posted May 20, 2011 If this came to 1, people would abuse it like hell. Synchros, Monarchs, Water abuse, Gishki, FormulaTurbo.dek, the list goes on. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

-Berserker- Posted May 20, 2011 Report Share Posted May 20, 2011 The way it's texted, you need to activate the effect of a Sinister Serpent in your field to return another in your graveyard to your hand. So at 1 it would do nothing... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mehmani Posted May 20, 2011 Report Share Posted May 20, 2011 Treeborn is infinite tribute fodder, albeit with some minor restrictions. This is a drawback-free costless infinite discard. There is a reason it is banned, this reason remains completely valid and will remain completely valid as long as the game exists. Should stay banned permanently.

King of Nothing Posted May 21, 2011 Report Share Posted May 21, 2011 There are many, many occasions where I'd rather a monster be on my field rather then in my hand, and since this doesn't immediately return, I feel like I'd rather have 3 treeborns then a Sinister Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wiithepeople Posted May 21, 2011 Report Share Posted May 21, 2011 SS can essentialy be it's own XX-Saber Darksoul, and can be essentially give you a free monster in your hand. For Treeborn to be summoned, you have to rely on not having a backrow. It's tough if you're depending on Traps of any kind except Decree. One of the reasons that EVERY good Frognarch player uses Giant Trunade or MST and such. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
King of Nothing Posted May 21, 2011 Report Share Posted May 21, 2011 I would still like to see a few duels of it @1 to see if decks really do take advantage of it. IMO there are far more powerful cards that are still in the game. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
