Moves this to the recommendation section

The Proto and North like brothers.  
If possible, pick both.

Neither, both. Really depends on what you like. The Protostar is the lighter and quicker of the two. The Northstar is a bit slower but also a bit more stable. They’re both great throws so if you’re not sure which you’d like better, go with whichever one you think looks better.

In my opinion I would get the northstar in one of the new awesome colors, just for looks.
