A few things I would add are to test online, attend prerelease if you can, and asking for help. Some people get intimidated by the players

Game is too easy. I learned on the app and I realized it is too dependent on luck.

[@KebinTCG]

Have you played in person? It’s such a different ball game in my opinion. Pokémon is definitely easy to pick up. I appreciate the low cost to get into the competitive scene too.

[@asianpotatofarmer1310]

Yeah that’s the reason why I wanted to play in person to get more experience and because competitive decks are just way cheaper than mtg

[@KebinTCG]

A lot of Yugioh players are making the switch too! I hear both the meta and cost is a bit ridiculous.

@@Julnlecs86 I think I have to disagree with the dependent on luck statement, no offense. You still need proper decision making and strategy on how to play around with the opponents deck and how to increase the chances of you getting the cards that you need to win the game in certain situations.
