> [@wrestlerjrh](#): > > appreciate all the input, does anyone have any more info in the Kilter 2? I like the price on that but I don’t just want to get metal just to say I have a metal, I want to be upgrading performance, is it a significant upgrade from the replay pro? How much does it suffer in comparison to the YYF $45 offerings or the OD Benchmark options? More then big the difference. From a replay to yyf 45$ metals. And od benchmark too Big upgrade in performance… ---

How much does it suffer in comparison to the YYF $45 offerings or the OD Benchmark options? I believe the Kilter 2 is a definite upgrade from the Replay Pro. There is simply no better performing metal at its price point. It can H grind and handle horizontal pretty well, it feels light and effortless to use, it’s stable and fits well in your hand. I Prefer The smaller diameter too. ---

still in the decision making process, adding a new contender how do you guys think the YYF Genesis stacks up now that it is a $50 yoyo ---

I’d get a $15 MYY N12 or a $25 $30 Echo 2 or Kilter 2 and put the rest toward another metal you’ll want in the future when you’ll have a better feel for what you want and something really catches your eye. ---

n12 definitely. Especially if you want to try out metals and still not too sure on the shape you like. I have two n12s and a M002. The n12 has a V shape whereas the M002 has a H shape. I prefer the V shape much more. Magicyoyos are a cheap way of finding your preferred shape. That being said, I doubt any other yoyo can come close to my n12 unless I am willing to go beyond the $80 price point. really eyeing the cyborg 2.0 though. haha. ---

> [@akka0710](#): > > Palpitation > or > Leviathan 7 I think you forgot to read the “budget” part of “First BUDGET Metal.” $200+ suggestions is hardly considered affordable enough to be considered budget, especially for a first metal. ---

The 2015 Genesis is the best $50 yoyo I have ever thrown. ---
