>>11389997Wizard Rod and Cobalt Dragoon are the meta doods right now. If you want to get started, Soar Phoenix 9-60GF with a string launcher from Hasbro for $20 is good, and then just grab whatever tickles your fancy. I'm running a deck of:
Knife Shinobi 9-60GF
Darth Vader 4-80Q (because praise kek, that's why)
Beat Tyranno 3-80F
Of these, only the Knife Shinobi is remotely meta, and even that's a stretch. This game can get sweaty, sure, but the most important thing is that you love what you do. Good luck, anon!
