*Return to Sender's versatility is the most powerful aspect of the card. It can fit in almost any deck because of how useful it is in almost any scenario or versus any deck archetype. It can be used to remove dangerous Bloons that are about to leak, nullify Monkeys and their buffed effects, re-play your own cards, or, if the opponent has a full hand, have all of these effects fully remove the card instead of just putting it back in their hand. Its removal effect can initiate a wincon, such as removing an enemy [[ARBITR]] or to perform certain OTK combos where a single Monkey is preventing OTK. | *Return to Sender's versatility is the most powerful aspect of the card.

*This card is useful to remove high-health Bloons that are about to leak, and counter scaling Bloons like [[Bolstered Bloon]], [[Extractor Bloon]], and [[The Eternal]]. Likewise, this can nullify an opponent's Monkeys with high ramping, such as [[Wizard Monkey (BCS)|Wizard Monkey]], [[Spike-o-Pult (BCS)|Spike-o-Pult]], and [[Sun Temple (BCS)|Sun Temple]], plus Monkeys boosted by permanent buffs such as [[Try this!]]. | *This card is useful to remove high-health Bloons that are about to leak, and counter scaling Bloons like [[Bolstered Bloon]], [[Extractor Bloon]], and [[The Eternal]].

*This card shares the same cost with [[Shrink]], so if Monkey removal is all you need, Shrink may be considered over Return To Sender. The versatility and power of Return To Sender is still often much better than Shrink, but it is a real decision that you may make when considering what removal you need. | |||
*Monkeys with On Play effects can be replayed if removed by Return to Sender. Of these Monkeys, this is best used for [[Bloon Master Alchemist (BCS)|Bloon Master Alchemist]], which in some cases is better than on a Bloon, and [[Thunder Druid]], for another board clear. | *Monkeys with On Play effects can be replayed if removed by Return to Sender.

**[[Adora (BCS)|Adora]] players seeking to recycle or reuse their own Monkeys can use [[Salvation]], which is cheaper and has additional benefits, while saving Return to Sender for other uses. | **[[Adora (BCS)|Adora]] players seeking to recycle or reuse their own Monkeys can use [[Salvation]], which is cheaper and has additional benefits, while saving Return to Sender for other uses. | ||
