@makyo @orrery It can be really fun times! Dunno if this helps, but there is a prerelease for the next set (Guilds of Ravnica) at the end of September. I know a lot of folks who attend one of those as a way to test the waters.
That said, if you need to brush up on the rules, there’s also a learn to play event called the magic open house a week before that.
@makyo @orrery they should be or I maybe goofed and didn’t put them up. But just in caaaase:
Open House is September 22 from 12-4.
Prerelease is September 29-30th.
