Put together the starter decks and then fill them out with some duplicates until you have 30 cards each, that should be resonable balanced I think?

Find a local store and find out when they play. Go down and get help from the people who are playing. A lot of people are all to happy to help out. Anything to grow the community.

Thanks everyone!

We wont take best part from you that is theorycrafting
Few rules of thumb:
-Try to stick to one damage type (TRY its not a must - some decks works more than fine with mixed damage but thats another story)
-Healthy proportions for a deck are:
*around 4 upgrades for each character you take (goes down with 4 chars - try not to break 12 upgrades in a deck)
* 6-10 migitations
* rest spice up to your taste
-When choosing battlefield consider 2 things - will i be fast enough to claim it(any action cheating in a deck like old Rey?) ? Or do i assume my opponent will claim most of the time? If first try to take a BF that suits your deck, if latter take one that will not harm you. Great example is one of the recent decks, mill-type (meaning you win by discarding whole deck from opponent without even dealing single point of dmg to him) that was ultra slow and took healing battlefield - claiming it by opponent gave him nothing as you deal no damage and if you manage to claim it yourself you get healed.
-Try to include something that gives consistency to your deck as dice can always betray you and roll crap all the time Like new Poe with his focus and special or cards like Use The Force or similar.
-When choosing what characters to include and deciding if you want to include them as normal or elite versions you need to consider:
*do i take this character for his ability (then he can be 1 dice non-elite, for example new Kylo that can be fine 1 dice) or do i want him cause his dice is awesome(like any Vader version that really wants to be elite)?
* do i take 1 character as a badazz and another to support him or shall i spead power across the board?

Hope that helps
