I cannot begin to emphasize that players who use this card need to be careful. If seen so many players lose games just because they forgot to recover the removed from play (or should I say "banished") card.
It happened to a guy I faced last night on Dueling Network, he lost because he forgot to reclaim his Gateway of the Six, although I reminded him after remembering the effect myself a few turns later. In a tournament setting this is a depressing way to lose, although I should note that players can get game warnings for forgetting Gold Sarc's effect, the opponent included if you can prove he/she "intentionally" forgot to remind you, which technically speaking they shouldn't have to seeing as it is your card effect, but I digress.

The best way to solve the problem? Put a die on top of your deck with the number two-side facing up. Reduce the number by one during each of your Standby Phases until two of them have passed. Problem solved! ^_^
Remember players, the game ends with you.
OR you can make a deal with yourself that as long as it's possible to forget it, you haven't practiced enough.
ReplyDeleteBut things happen, and players can get distracted. I've had a friend of mine forget Gold Sarc's effect because his opponent removed the banished card off his mat since he said it was "distracting". He's a great player, but he completely forgot about the effect until 5+ turns later.
