Not including my own yoyos in the list it would look something like this:

Oxymoron  
Regulator  
Supernova  
Punchline  
Damian Hybrid

Mine would take up the entire list. Assassin is my favorite yoyo ATM because of how easy it is to bring anywhere and it’s all around fun and playability in a premium alloy. 5050 and Kanto are tied for fun factor. Fusion is the best performance yoyo I’ve ever played.

Glad to see any mention of Top Deck. To me, Top Deck is like a breath of fresh air after using any other yoyo I own.

I mention it frequently 😆

It’s true. Every time I go back to it, it just feels like home. It’s exactly how I expect a premium modern yoyo should feel and play.

1. Generalyo 5 Star  
FTY 138  
Duncan Freehand One Ti  
DD 50/50  
Ti-Vayder  
Spinworthy/MK1 - RBC

Ok, so a top 6, but this is me being incredibly stringent while sticking to an only metal restriction (favorite fixie is the Spinworthy KNack hands down).

First off, the 5 Star is just my favorite. Not an excessive performer, but it leaves the biggest grin on my face when I play with it. Id have a really hard time making this my only yoyo, but smiles per throw is highest here for me.

Rest of the list is not in order.

So, the FTY 138 is still very high on my rotation. Loved it so much that I had to buy another to do a purple/green halfswap. It’s undersized and chill very much like the 5 Star (slightly higher performing though), and just a jamming compact throw. I like it a tad more than the Project Ti.

Duncan Freehand One Ti. I imagine that the high price tag of a big brand is why this yoyo is generally not talked about, but wow. This yoyo is organic perfection. I like it better than the RSO Gravity, MCMO, Bowl, etc. I love what the extra density of Ti brings to this yoyo.

DD 50/50 is the perfect mix of organic feels and performance. I love the size and feel in the hand.

Ti Vayder. This yoyo just hits so many sweet spots that it is my favorite all around yoyo. It is high performing, durable for 5A, slightly undersized as that is my general preference, and still has plenty of soul.

Spinworthy/MK1 - RBC. Best metal responsive yoyo ever made.

Great taste. If I only had three, a 5 star, Vayder, and RBC would hold me over

Thanks dude. From your posts I know that we have very similar taste in yoyo. Have you tried the FTY 138 yet? I think you would enjoy it a lot.

Decided to take some pics to show. Top row is my 5 Stars. Second is the Freehand One Ti and 2 Ti Vayders, raw is set up 5A. Next row is 2 half swapped FTY 138s, and the DD 50/50. And 2 RBCs, one in the @EOS44 colorway and one red.

This is based only and PURELY on the 5 yoyos I’ve been throwing the most lately, they aren’t necessarily my favorites. But most of these are up there! Not even sure it’s gonna look like this tomorrow, since the Kuntosh 5KQV I got today has been getting A LOT of love.

I thought about this a lot today. Pardon the terrible picture. This is a mix of favorites and recency bias.

I gotta make a new official list here in the near future, as my preference has changed a lot since even two months ago, haha. But I’ll say that my unofficial list comprises of mostly the new Freehand yoyos, haha! That and mostly responsive yoyos.

Man, seeing all the love for the RBC has my finger on the trigger, though I’m waiting to pull until after a certain paycheck comes in, lol.
