I would advise against writing satire, irony and deconstruction, it's basically an admission that you can't produce the real thing and it lacks authenticity. That's not to say you won't write something funny, you can, but wouldn't it be much more of an accomplishment to take that framework and make people care about the story you're telling with it? To make them root for the hero and take his struggle seriously? To not half-ass it because the entire thing is a joke to you? If you're a very funny guy then it might be fine, but in most cases I've seen that has been an excuse for impotence. I'm not really writing X so it doesn't matter if the story and characters are bad, it's a joke bruh, and jokes takes no effort. Of course if you actually put in the effort and treat your writing sincerity then you don't have the shield of irony or comedy anymore, it might be terrible and that might hurt your ego.
