I opened about 300 boosters over the last two days and made my first deck today, hooray! I've gone 5-1 in random vs matches but I see the OP says I have maybe twice as much energy as I should have? How are people running decks with such low amounts of energy, or are you stuffing your trainer pools with energy searches and energy retrievals?

Despite what the OP says, the average deck does not have less than 10 energy. Most fair decks (ones that rely on drawing and playing cards normally) probably start with 18-20 energy. It's not until you get into hyper-specialized decks with a bunch of combos, crazy amounts of card draw, and discard pile recursion, that you see those sorts of <10 energy decks.

What's the best thing to spend tokens on, decks? Which decks? Someone do my drat homework, please.

Storm Rider, Dark Hammer, and Electric Eye are all pretty good Theme Decks to start out.

Otherwise, packs. They almost always have some sort of pack with the most recent set with a packed in promo card and coin at the same price as a regular pack, but most of the promos aren't great.
