Blitz deck recommendations for beginners?

Got the MTG blues due to Wizards acting so crumby lately.

Gonna visit my brother in law (we usually play Magic (and ignore my sister)) this weekend, so wanted to try FAB.

So I ordered 8 blitz decks off eBay for super cheap; my local game store doesn't sell FAB. I also bought official Dromai and Fai blitz decks because I heard they're a good match up.

I noticed the oficial decks came with a card ranking their difficulty to play. Dromai is 4.5 stars difficult I guess, and Fai is 2 stars.

Played a game with my wife and it was challenging to get the hang of defending, and knowing what to pitch, and realizing you don't have another action point.

Anyways I'm hoping to get some suggestions on which decks we should start playing with, that hopefully also will be fun to play against each other. Just by reading some heroes, I feel they'd be hard for a beginner. The decks I have are:

  • Azalea
  • Dorinthia
  • Bravo
  • Katsu
  • Rhinar
  • Viserai
  • Kano
  • Dash
  • Fai
  • Dromai

Wife and I played Bravo v Dorinthia and she really struggled trying to get two attacks with her weapon each turn, and I don't think I ever used my weapon. Azalea seems like she might be straightforward.

Super excited to play another game.

Maybe the game just takes time to comprehend, but the difficulty ratings made me wonder. Thanks for any help!!
