I don't know if I'd call them 'back' but Adamancipator is probably going to be a fair bit more relevant now than they were. Not tiered or anything, but probably somewhat playable.
Brilliant Fusion to 3 is neat too. I wonder if any relevant decks can make use of that.
My first thought was White Forest, since they can fuse Seraphinite at the cost of running a garnet (the man himself). That gives them a body, an extra normal summon, can dump Astellar to grave and Brilliant Fusion stays on the field, ready to be discarded by a WF effect. I don't expect that it'll work out, but stranger things have happened.
