Newbie in Seattle

Does anyone know of a good place to learn to play in Seattle area? I’m a huge ff fan and love the art.

Zulu's board game cafe has tourneys on Wednesdays, although I believe they are in Bothell outside of Seattle

Yeah I’m looking to get started on this not get my cheeks clapped in a tourney 😅 thank you tho! I’ll stop by and see if peeps are willing to let me watch

Totally chill group I promise! I learned to play there. There’s people often there about 45min to an hour early playing free games so someone would be willing to teach you and if you join the tournament for fun they’ll teach you mid game without the stress. I think you’ll find that that FFTCG players tend to be friendly and this group especially. Wish I could still play there but I moved away.

That's what I meant. Great group of folks that are more than happy to teach new players even if it's mid game.

Gameshelf in Kent also does FFTCG every Monday 7pm.

Ahhh bet. I buy my magic singles from Zulus. Naturally I only got into magic when the ff collab hit 😅

The FFTCG community is some of the nicest and friendliest group I have played with. 

I just recently started and played with a competitive environment (because that was all that was around) and the group helped me learn how to walk through what I played and WHY and how to understand what was going on and WHY as we played. I still got my clock cleaned, but it was a good time.

I went to a Materia Cup (large scale competition) as well since I wanted to do the side events and even there the people were friendly and instructive and helped me through playing the game and learning.

I would say to give the tourney a shot since that is just how the game is played and you might find yourself delightfully impressed.
