I choose sunset!

isn't she much older than twilight though?

Yes, that is always an option, but one of the other paths will still play out.

It's widely debated what their age difference is, but it's commonly agreed upon that Sunset is a few years older than Twi.

That ain't such a bad idea.
>>
>>29710424
Is the replacement retroactive? i.e., instead of Starlight's weird equality village and EqG, we get Sunset entering as an antagonist at the beginning of S5 by stealing the elements from the tree?

Because frankly, I'd find that much more palatable than either of their current positions:
>Instead of know-nothing unicorn living in the middle of nowhere, we get an already-talented pony who spent years under the tutelage of the highest minds in the land
>Instead of "my friend didn't write me anymore", we get a pony tempted into darkness by the promise of power
>Instead of Sunset deciding to invade Equestria with an army of fucking teenagers, she could rally any of the considerable forces at play in Equestria itself
>Instead of "literally better than an alicorn for no reason", she is boosted by an artifact we know to be staggeringly powerful already
>Instead of "lol I'm a good guy now even though you've said nothing relevant to me", Sunset would have an actual reason to listen to Twilight's words

Ideally, Starlight's role in the show would have been Trixie's; her arc put her in a prime position to become Twilight's student in turn. Between Sunset and Starlight, though, Baconhair has my vote.

Stop pushing this shitty meme, why would you even want Sunset in FiM? Like for what fucking purpose, then we just have yet another Twilight clone there.

She's perfectly fine in EQG and she's a great character there, injecting her into FiM will just spawn more shitty, cancerous episodes bar the Celestia reconciliation one.

I think it would've been better if eqg never happened. Have Sunset replace Sunburst.

You're missing the point. The suggestion what if EqG never existed, and Sunset was introduced in the show in the first place. Starlight wouldn't exist either, since Sunset would already be filling her slot.

>Le ebil majik horse gets rekt by Twiggler
Neither of them were really "evil" per se, they just did morally questionable stuff to achieve their goals.
>WAAAAH I'M SO SAWWY ;(
This is true, both of their redemptions were quick. To be fair for Starlight hers didn't involve being hit by a friendship laser.
>It's k we're all your best friends now
Didn't really happen with Sunset. Aside from the humane6, who still gave her shit for what she did, the entire rest of the school still didn't trust her.
>Spend an entire hour's worth of screentime crying about "MUH PAST"
Neither of them really did that. They both mentioned it off-hand a few times, but they didn't get nearly as much screentime covering it as you're suggesting.
>Somehow this is 2deep4me and they become an elder god-tier character with their """redemption"""
I think for Sunset a lot of the 2deep stuff comes from speculation outside of >comic canon. Her motivations aren't entirely clear besides being ambitious and wanting to take over Equestria. Why go to the human world where there's no magic if she wanted to become more powerful? Why did she wait apparently 3 years to steal the element of magic? It's stuff to think about and come up with theories, which helps contribute to people's interest in the character.
Starlight's backstory was pretty mishandled, though.
>Get rewarded constantly for doing literally nothing and somehow have insane magical power even though Twilight was supposed to be the strongest unicorn ever
This all only applies to Starlight. Sunset had to work through Rainbow Rocks to earn the school's trust back, Sunset had to understand the magic of friendship in order to harness its power without being corrupted and stop Midnight, and Sunset made the mistake of assuming it was Timber Spruce who was doing bad shit around the camp showing even she makes mistakes. Meanwhile Glimmer frequently does dumb shit and does get away with it. (cont.)

>Have 0 personality beyond crying in the corner about their past and talking about magic
Clearly Starlight is borderline sociopathic, lazy about things she's not interested in (friendship lessons), and thinks of herself as a special snowflake because she couldn't really get along with anypony except another special snowflake like her who did bad shit in the past too. Which would probably mean she would get along with Sunset, since they can feel bad for each other while having a hot former-villain three-way.

Meanwhile Sunset's personality has been fairly well-defined as being motherly toward the others and caring about the friends she's made, showing that her redemption has really impacted her.
>Defeat all villains through asspulls
See previous post for Sunset, in Rainbow Rocks she had to believe she was a meaningful member of the group to be able to help them defeat the sirens, had to understand friendship to be able to use it, and despite mistaking who the villain was in LoE had to convince the others that just having magic wasn't bad as long as you used it for good and had to convince Sci-Twi to get over the shit she did in the past.

Starlight wasn't even really the one who defeated the changelings, she just used Thorax's transformation to explain they can feed each other through gay orgies with themselves instead of stealling sex from other races.
>Steal spotlight from actually good, interesting characters
It's been frequently lamented that Sunset gets constantly shafted in place of Twilight and Sci-Twi actually stealing all the spotlight, though a lot of the other characters are also getting shafted by them too. But "actually good, interesting characters"?
Top KEK
I may be a bit biased, but the rest of the mane6 are mostly one-dimensional characters even as far back as s1. I feel sorry for people who waifu them. The only real exception is probably Rarity. Even Glimmer can't be blamed for it because she only had a few episodes last season.

If Starlight was somehow replaced entirely by Sunset in the show proper I would take very negative post I ever made on the show on this board in the past 2 years, print them out, and literally proceed to eat my own words. That's how turned around on my hype for the show.
>>
>>29710424

Current Sunset is actually kinda really boring and basically has almost all the problems Twilight's has had post S3 without even being a princess, so no.

Honestly people seem to see Sunset as like what a reformed character should be but to me she's largely what they shouledn't they got rid of all her villainous traits too fast so after a single movie where she gets over her self doubt she really has little room left to grow.

>tfw she (or Starlight) could have been a season long antagonist and the adventure would have been an overarching theme of stopping her plans, turning her allies into the M6's allies and get more clues to her actual motive from each group

>finally top off with a confrontation with her where she unleashes a NIGHTFALL level cataclysm that requires the aid of all of their allies to stop in a 2 parter that doesn't end in a 3 minute friendship montage after deus ex rainbowing her
