Reasoning only backfires if you're not playing a deck that takes advantage of the milling (Infernoids for example).

Whenever you see a person play blind Reasoning, always call 1.

I guess so

Faced a Runic player with that card. He millet about 97% of his deck and got lucky he could summon one before he millet his whole deck.

Most decks nowadays that play Reasoning do so because they want to dump 10+ cards into the graveyard without using any resources other than a card in hand. The summon is nice but mostly so that you could tribute it for Monster Gate and do so a second time.

Why call level 1?

If playing against Infernoids, it prevents Decatron.

Outside of Infernoids, level 1 monsters are very powerful when it comes to climbing or making plays, see Glow-Up Bulb for example.

Again this is regarding Blind Reasoning. If you know what you're playing against, you can call accordingly.

Reasoning can and WILL backfire if you are not playing a deck that can take advantage of the sheer amount of milling you can do with that card. For example, Lightsworn mills a LOT and cards like Wulf and Felis will trigger off of Reasoning if they're sent to the GY. Another deck that you'd wanna mill a lot of cards with is Infernoid since you can get a lot of monsters in the GY to summon the big boys.

If you're not sure what you're up against I would just declare either level 1 or level 4 as there are quite a lot of cards with strong effects at those levels. Otherwise if you are sure what you're up against just declare the level you think is common in your opponent's deck as somebody else has suggested on this post already
