I'd say swipe, everyone has the same difficulties then and everyone is on the same page with breeding. Now the newer players will never get a comp team as the players who have 3 boxes full of 5x31 spindas.
Also, please be a bit less toxic. A game should be played because it's fun and because you're having fun. If you didn't have fun at all those hours you played, you should not play this game at all.
