Mmh... Had I been asked this a few months ago, I would've said "Dark Rebellion Xyz Dragon" without hesitation. I've always been a fan of both dragons and DARK monsters, so there really was nothing unappealing to me about that card: the fact that it's also an extremely practical and useful monster was just the cherry on top. Nowadays, though, I'd definitely give the 1st place to its evolution, "Dark Requiem Xyz Dragon". Why, you may ask?
Seriously though! Amazing design, an evolution of my favourite card AND that fantastic animation for its first appearance in the anime? There really was no contest, it was an instant favourite!Spoiler Alert!
Aside from that, if I can nominate a third place, I'd go with "Abyss Actor - Superstar": as I said, I've always liked DARK monsters, so the concept of a troupe of demons instantly appealed to me, and evne know that we have more cards in the archetype, Superstar's elegant design still puts it on top. Those are the cards I can think of at the moment: they're all from the ARC-V era, but to be fair that's when I came back to the game, so of course they'd be at the forefront!
