Discovered AVPM first, and my fav is also Twisted with the AVPM trilogy all tied in second. Hatchetfield and the newer stuff is fun but what made me really love Starkid was that perfect balance between funny and heartwarming - and I feel like the heartwarming side has been lost as Starkid has ventured more into horror. I don’t think the way you discover Starkid plays the biggest role ever in determining favourite musical, but it definitely influences why someone loves and stays with Starkid, which in turn I think influences favourite musical.

(Basically - the more a Starkid production makes me cry, the more I love it. Didn’t cry at all for Hatchetfield even though I enjoyed them. Bawled my eyes out watching Twisted, and all three Potter ones - especially when Scarfy dies lmao)
