I disagree on that one. I usually like my yoyos as mint as possible. That might change in the future.

No worries, to each their own. I have alot of mint yoyos. I tend to get a second not quite perfect one for the ones I really want to play with.

I do like the TopYos as well especially for the price. I have an Origin, Silenus, and a Selene. Three different shapes and all very good.

Right now the monometal that gets most play in my collection is my Shutter WA. I really like it. I also think I’m lucky cause I’ve dinged it 7-8 times and it’s about 9-9.5 smooth on the rims( on the catchzone 0 fingernail vibe)

Not a budget yoyo, but for some reason my To-Vayder loves to sing~~🎶

It’s like it meditates everytime it comes off the string. Hummmmmmmmmmm hummmmmmmmm

Yeah titaniums are a little different. But even then it’s not necessarily “noisy.”

Edit:

Also glad you like your Vayder. I was on the Vs Newton team back in the day.

I wouldn’t say it’s noisy, it’s actually really fun.  
I spent an hour yesterday purely focused on intentionally make it keep singing 🙂

Thanks dude, I did read up to see what happened and it’s a shame but everyone makes bad choices in life sometimes. Some more public then others. Some more unethical or frowned upon (little understatement I know) then others.  
But I truly believe everyone deserves a shot at redemption.

Ti-Vayder rocks. I’m really glad that it was remade and I had an opportunity to partake in trying it out.

My vote is the Magicyoyo node.

Pros: very stable, rounded edges so it feels good in the hand, very smooth, handles speed pretty well, beautiful anno(glossy on the outside and blasted in the middle), great grinds, centering bearing.

Cons: lacks a little bit of power, response a little bit slippy, not the best for fingerspins due to the step down near the axle nub.

These are all my opinions though. Ultimately I think that it is one of the best Yoyos at its price point, especially for a metal. I’ve had it for a few weeks now and haven’t really felt the urge to play anything else.

I’ve noticed that is not uncommon with MagicYoyo throws. I figure a thicker string and maybe softer response pads would fix that.

Yeah it doesn’t really bother me, it’s just noticeable. I’ll just silicone it once I’ve worn out the pads.

The node is a warrior. My was my first unresponsive yoyo and it has seen some serious road rashes while learning. Still my one of my faves- I got a 2nd that’s clean.

Yeah, it’s so good! I can’t hardly believe there’s such a well performing high quality metal yo-yo for so cheap! It’s crazy!

Is the origin any good? I chose a bastet over it.

The Origin is very good. It is a fairly high walled organic old school shape. For price you can’t beat it. I prefer the Markmont Classic and Parlay over it as well as the Mowl Obsession. But again for the price it’s hard to beat and I don’t know of how many are out there like it.

Truth be told, I’d really like someone to buy that Meta so I’m no longer tempted to buy it for myself!  
But for something new, the MYY V4 is also a solid budget choice, if for some reason the OP isn’t into the Node or the N12.

Duncan barracuda is my vote. Awesome for 1a/3a and they have been really cheap due to some nice sales.

There are so many good throws in the sub $50 range. To add even more to the mix…

I really enjoy the TopYo Impulse 2 and Impulse S. Probably my favorites of the TopYos I own.

The Vosun Vanquish and EZSpin are both excellent as well. The Vanquish made quite a splash as a budget metal before the Node came about but I guess it didn’t quite have the same legs. The EZSpin was a tweak to the Vanquish design that kinda flew under the radar (can’t blame people staying away with that name tho). I personally slightly prefer EZSpin but both are great $30-$40 jos if you can find them.

Topyo and Vosun both make some excellent throws. How does the Impulse S play?
