Disney Lorcana
4.1
(11)
"I have a purple steel winning Poorcana deck that comes in at $30 USD. I think it is an excellent place to start because as over time if you like the style, you can quickly upgrade it to a top tier deck."
"I started with the big hero six deck because I love the movie I was tempted to get the Encanto deck as well. I recommend either of those for starting off purple and yellow is a really good combination for beginning players"
"Would recommend either the two latest starter decks, which are Belle and Jafar ones, both are fun to play, or the Rise of the Floodborn Merlin/Tiana deck."
"Amethyst Steel Rise of the floodbirn starter deck, (Merlin and Tiana on the box) has the bounce package which has been a meta staple ever since."
"I would go for the newest ones. The jafar one and the Belle item one."
"That said the new amethyst steel is definitely strong"
"There’s some really good cards in the gateway box (especially Merlin and Mim) that are signatures to their decks."
"Musketeers! A very cheap deck to build with a decent number of cards to swap around and try out."
"They're not super competitive, but I like my brooms deck and my puppies deck. Both are around $30ish for the cards to get started."
"I’m having a lot of fun with Shift HeiHei! The deck is extremely simple, and is based around…gambling lol"

One Piece Card Game

"Blackbeard is the most cheap yet strong deck rn, got my friend and I into the tcg and while I spent hundreds on making decks of leaders that I liked and AA leaders to collect, he spent north of 60 bucks on a locals ready deck."
"Buy singles, if you want to rip open packs anyways go for PRB, if you can't find PRB op02 has many navy staples, op09 if you want to play blackbeard and op07 has some CP cards."
"The most expensive card would be Bon Kurei, but it usually is a 2 of max and the deck works without it. Must haves are OP08 Linlin and Gum Gum Giant."
"Doflamingo (ST17) is still a viable deck and has become pretty cheep without Jinbe."
"You don’t need a playset of bon clay and luffy sec although the deck is still expensive."
"Pretty expensive considering you need a playset of eb01 Mr2 SEC and OP09 Luffy SEC, OP05 Kid and some Op08 Linlins. It's not cheap."

Starter Deck

"Quite literally any starter deck"
"Literally any of the starter decks, they're designed for casual play for beginners."
"These are pretty simple so I definitely recommend them for new casual players"

Marvel Snap

(4)
"Hit infinite with this deck this season! (CL 8500) Moon Girl is fun, she can give you extra discard tools when you skip turns or give you and extra Muramasa Shard."
"I have him in my Bullseye deck and it’s great."
"I like my deck with Frigga but I like moon knight/proxima as grandmaster is often super clunky."
"I honestly find Frigga difficult to play in this deck and had better success with Arnim Zola."
#6
Jumpstart
4.3
(3)
"11/10 will always recommend Jumpstart 2020 and 2022."
"You could look into jumpstart, it’s a new-ish format where you combine 2 special 20-card packs to make a 40-card deck."
"A faster one would be jump start but get either 2022 ,2020 and foundation series as the rest sucks."
#7
Uta
4.3
(3)
"Uta is one of the best beginner friendly decks, mainly because of the F I L M engine."
"Currently the best is whatever you can get your hands on. Stock is pretty low and beggars can't be choosers. Closest to competitive out the box would probably be 'Three brothers'. Black Luffy and Uta are also easy to upgrade into decent decks."
"I'm new myself but apparently the Uta starter deck is very strong. You'll want to buy 2 of them and then you can further buy a couple singles to fully flesh it out at which point it's basically perfectly competitive."
#8
Pokémon
5.0
(2)
"Pikachu deck is probably best."
"Almost certainly Pikachu because the games are the shortest."
#9
Labrynth
4.5
(2)
"Labrynth has to be up there right now. It just plays insanely well into this meta."
"Labrynth rn is a solid cheap deck imo, in this meta is not bad."
#10
MangoMedic
4.5
(2)
"The MangoMedic deck covers all of the third prof subjects and is very well organised."
"There's a Mangomedic deck for NEET PG."
#11
Sera
4.5
(2)
"I'm addicted to Sera>Onslaught+Mystique. All your cards are 1 cost now, have fun!! Best in a Tribunal deck, but I also have her in a Mill/Control/Affliction deck that I have been having fun with."
"She is also pretty decent in ongoing decks. Sometimes a spectrum/onslaught is the right play, sometimes you don't have enough power on the board and playing sera can allow you to do some things."
#12
Fire King Structure Deck
4.5
(2)
"Gives the best base for a deck with lots of room to upgrade"
"It's the only one you'll probably find in store like Wal-Mart or Target."

(2)
"Wait for the Charizard League Battle Deck that is releasing by November."
"It's better to go for League Battle decks as they're not only playable out of the box but also upgradeable."
#19
Labyrinth
4.0
(2)
"I'd say to invest in Labrynth, Runick, Centur-ion, or Spright, as they always seem to have something they can do in most metas."
