    As for what to get, the 2019 Core Set just came out. Maybe look up the pre-made Planeswalker decks that are part of this set, grab one each you like the looks of. 5 to choose from:

    After that, either the Deckbuilders Toolkit or the Core Set 2019 Bundle would add a ton of cards to modify those decks from or build totally new ones.

    Thanks for the quick reply man, Mabey a stupid question but how do I pick which deck would it be completely dumb to just pick by the cartoon on the first card.

    really depends on your playstyle, which might be a bit moot if your just starting out. Generally:

    -White, uses a good bit of soldier type units, very general with good stats and can boost each other, also a smattering of defensive/protection spells
    -Black, lots of "kill" spells, has tons of zombies and other horrors which are weak but has lots of cards to pull creatures back from your graveyard, also sacrificing your own units to gain bonuses
    -Blue, the favourite of those that like to mess with things, lots of spells to counter/cancel cards played or draw more cards, creatures are relatively weak
    -Red, damage...tons of spells like Fireball or Lightning Bolt that can blast down units (or the players health), mix of weak but numerous Goblins and stronger Dragon/Giants cards, can be very fast decks that put pressure on fast
    -Green, big guys..very strong creatures and cards to destroy particular card types and strengthen your creatures even more, also lots of cards to draw/play more lands (the cards you use to pay for units to come onto the field)

    If had to boil down to one or two words: White[defensive/average strength], Black[sacrificing/graveyard cycling], Blue[control spells/deck manipulation], Red[damage/fast], Green[big creatures/growth]


    Heres a decklist of whats in each of the 5 packs, prob not much help until you know what most cards do what.
