I really don't think we should be starting people off on an unresponsive. I believe in starting with a responsive throw and not skipping out on the learning experience of responsive trick.s Just my two cents.

TacticalDanResponsive means that it comes up by tugging at the string. Unresponsive means that it returns with a trick called a "bind". Unresponsive yoyo's allow you to do some more advanced tricks taking advantage of the slack and the longer sleep time, but is difficult to start learning because it gets frustrating having to wind up the yoyo every time your throw comes out crooked. Out of what is on the list only the Classic comes responsive stock. I think the Dv888 and the Dark Magic can come either Responsive or Unresponive (minor mods to switch between the two.) Once MassDrop gets into the negotiation phase, they will have to make sure that they choose the responsive variants of those, if that is what we want. The shutter, in the lead now, is unresponsive.
If you wanted a recommendation for a yoyo to buy, I love my YoYoJam Classic. I have two that I've made unresponsive, and I carry them every day.
