In my opinion, i think the TCG is great. You can meet you new people, win prizes no mater what place you finish, a friendly playing environment and there are always people willing to help you if you're struggling with the game, which is nice.
All-in-All, its a great gaming experience.

You can get Scholarships, Prizes, and it is overall really fun!
And there's this. Not sure if everything in there would apply to you but it is still a helpful well-written resource.
If it weren't for the great people I know that I've met by playing the TCG, I really don't know if I'd still be playing.
I've been playing board games and card games for a few decades now...
TCG takes the luck and skill of these types of games and wraps it into a much more intricate format. You have the deck-building dimension as well as actually playing.
Also, my son started playing in tournaments when he was 6... Pokemon TCG helped him a lot with basic math and reading skills.

I really enjoy the TCG game.
If you can look past some of the arrogant winners, everyone is really nice, and they all share the same hobby as you. And I don't see buying cards as wasting money. If you play a sport, you need all of the equipment for it. If you play Pokemon, you need all the equipment for it. So in the end, you spend just as much(maybe even less) then a sport with it's fancy equipment, entrance fees and tournament fees.

It's always a friendly community, you can spend some time with people of your own kind, you can make friends, and everyone is willing to help you out.

It's kind of like school. You learn strategy, and information that make you be good at something, then you go to social events, and have competition. It's also something fun. What's there not to like? (Money)
I love the game, its easier than sports though.
I so agree with this. Comparing trying to dribble a soccer ball around three players while running, checking if you can shoot yet, or if there's any passes you can make in just a few seconds is soooo much harder than spending five minutes trying to figure out how to lay a few cards on a table in the best way possible.gengar the baller said:
Don't get me wrong though, there's a lot of strategy involved in this game. Also, I don't think the poster of this thread has been active since he made this, so we may as well stop posting.
Not true. It has only been a few days, and this discussion is for everyone, not just the thread creator.Celebi23 said:
The TCG provides a social context where people of similar interests gather. Besides meeting other people and the prospect of winning prizes, players learn strategy, sportsmanship, and experience situations that they can relate to other experiences. The frustration of losing the game turn 2. The fun of getting 6 heads in a row with Marowak's Continuous Headbutt. The disappointment of placing 9th overall at a tournament with a Top 8 cut. The excitement of winning a City Championships with a deck nobody expected to win. These are all situations that players can relate to, and learn more about their own personality, and the personalities of others around them.
I've talked to several parents who have children that play the game, and many times, they are amazed at how complex the TCG is, in both game mechanics and the tournament atmosphere. The TCG certainly is more than it appears to be on first glance.
