I use Original Throw normal and alternate between white and yellow due to the slight differences. Yellow is softer and more springy so it feels like it has a bit more grip on binds. White is more rigid and a little less grippy so I use the white string more on throws with tighter gaps.

The difference is pretty negligible though. It’s really all about the aesthetics.

asking questions like this will never yield a consensus as it’s entirely preference based. all you will end up with if enough ppl respond is just a list of what’s available

just get a 100 pack of whatever dude. the only real difference is between nylon and polyester. if you want to dig into the minutiae thats something you can only really do for yourself.  
atmos has free shipping so maybe start with cloudweave?

Still going through a bundle of “slick 6” from yoyoguy that I ordered in 2008. But that’s mostly because I fell in love with thick string for my non responsive throws
