The world championships are this weekend http://www.ptks.org/wdc2018/
I’m currently here (it’s the last day), and I wasn’t quite sure what to expect with it being my first time playing in a large tournament— but I have to say it was pretty damn fun. The face to face hobby is definitely alive and well. If you enjoy strategy games, and have a bit of a masochistic bent, you’ll get along just fine.
Definitely would recommend you get some experience under your belt beforehand, to get a feel for general strategy and tactics. If you want to join the major discussion channels online to find some good games, hit me up and I’ll invite you.
