Miro is an amazing GM, they are quick with ideas and set the mood during session. They will also use levity during intense moments, which I do appreciate. If you have any doubts, don't. Miro will give you an amazing time.

Decided to play with Squirrel after they posted their start for Strixhaven. My spouse and I really like DnD for the story telling and RP of it all, so we gave them a shot. I was blown away from session zero with this DM. They helped me create a character for the world, included other players to help them get the spotlight, and their acting is really amazing to boot. Honestly, if I could select more than three tags for Squirrel I would! Rule of Cool, Good for beginners, Knows the Rules should be a part of what I describe on top of the Story Teller, Creativity, and inclusion tags. Trust me when I say that they are 100% one of the best DMs that I can possibly think of. Their community on discord is so wholesome too. Stop wasting time reading my review and just join a game with them already.

Tyson is perhaps one of the best DMs that I have encountered since I started on Start Playing. Not only are the welcoming to everyone, but they are super helpful for beginners. I and a group of friends wanted to start playing the Vecna campaign that came out and oh boy did they deliver! Wonderful voices, great music to match the occasion, and allows for creativity for the player. I could write an entire thesis on why Tyson is one of the best DMs but I am limited by my review word count! I do not regret one moment that I decided to go with Tyson. They are the ultimate person to run your campaign. If you have any doubt, don't!

I was interested in Aaron’s game immediately when I heard that there is a ghibli inspired game. I was blown away with how amazing of a story teller and accommodating they are. I cannot recommend them enough. If you want a great game with awe inspiring visuals and a DM that’s super cool, choose Aaron. You won’t regret it.

Honestly, I wish that I could put more of the tags on here because this DM knows the rules, lets you do cool things, has incredible visual aids, and is a master class story teller. I have been with several DMs that say "If you have an issue tell me," and then just ignore your concerns or argue with you. Ben does an amazing job of listening to feedback and will have a good conversation with you about why things work or don't for the story. I love the amount of character backstory that interweaves the story and makes me feel like my PC is actually living there. He is excellent for beginners and overall. I just can't say enough. If you have any doubts, don't! Choose this one.
