Bought into Destiny a little at release a year ago and enjoyed it a lot but quickly realised I wouldnt keep up with any competitive scene.

Some time later, having not had the game to table much at all I sold off what I had collected.

Now I have the chance of buying 2x each of rey/kylo awakening starter sets as well as a box of awakenings boosters. Im getting a really good deal and im thinking perhaps to buy it and get myself a decent two-player setup.

As a casual player, is there any reason I shouldnt do this? Im getting more then enough for two players to casually enjoy the game for half the cost of doing the same with any of the new starters/boosters.

Thoughts?

Only thing I would also suggest is getting some 2P starters from Target. You can find them as low as 9 bucks and very much worth it.

Awakenings is good for casual. Two Kylo/Rey starters are just not that good. Also this time next year Awakenings will be fully rotated out. So for the next year or so you will get a couple of OK casual decks, maybe. But the game in it's current state has so many new and fun cards to use, even for the casual player. So I would say move on. Buy Awakenings singles if need be. I would be disappointed if I ordered a whole box and did not get what I wanted or needed to build two fun--consistent decks, even by Awakenings standards. SOR killed that set dead with all it's over powered Meta cards. The game is just now recovering. So when people say they love Awakenings or miss those days, they mean they miss the fun spirit of the game in general back then.

Yeah im rethinking the idea. Im not interested in competitive and/or meta since ill only be playing casually with different friends so I want to build two fun and balanced decks and maybe, MAYBE keep building a complete collection. And ive just watched a little about the upcoming Legacies and it really attracts me with the OT characters!

So Im thinking that if I want to start a collection then why not do it with the newest set
