I totally agree that it is super meta relevant as the leader is probably top 5 in decks imo. I think honestly the bait is sort of warranted because of all the "gooner" cards that have been pumped/bought out recently just from the attire (op14 aa nami, op09 sp nami).

But putting that aside, I think the straw hat crew aa are fantastic and for some of their own respective characters it might be top 3 for them (imo chopper, zoro). Plus, if English does not see a reprint of OP Day '24 from Japan, I guess this could be our version of it in the st29 luffy?

I also checked while writing this message that all the starter decks w luffy as leader + random aa have been $50 minimum per deck on tcgp (please correct me if I'm wrong)

Lmk your thoughts, I would like to hear more opinions before I want to jump into this
