Paragon Gaming

★★★★★

“I’ve been to A LOT of card shops across the country. Paragon Gaming solves so many of the problems that other stores don’t know how to fix. They are absolutely THE go-to place for trading card games in the area. What they do well: A) Best-in-class Staff -> every single employee I talked to was friendly and helpful. I know that’s generic to say… so I’ll give an example I’ve never been to a store where the staff can not only help you find a game BUT also make sure it’s the right type of game/bracket. They have an acute awareness of who is playing what so you have a great time. B) Play Space -> they have freaking 14 GIANT tables organized by card games for the day. Other stores PLEASE pay attention -> Large play spaces are key to driving a community. C) The Community. It’s really hard to build a community nowadays but Paragon has an insane community. You’ll easily find 70-80 people there on a good night. Absolutely worth coming out and I will absolutely come here again!”

“My daughter and I went to Paragon Gaming today, and we had such a great experience! We recently moved to the Knoxville area and mentioned that we were looking for a place where we could play Commander for Magic: The Gathering. Everyone was extremely kind, welcoming, and helpful. They took the time to answer all of our questions and made us feel right at home. They even gave my daughter a little goodie bag, which they absolutely did not have to do. That small act of kindness really meant a lot to us. Finding a welcoming place like this when you’re new to an area makes a huge difference. We’ll definitely be back to play some Commander. Thank you, Paragon Gaming, for making us feel so welcome!”

“Such a great shop, tons of play space, decent sealed and singles selection. The staff is so welcoming and nice, and the events are an amazing time with great prizes. Highly recommend for prerelease events, tournaments, and just casual Friday night magic alike.”

“A fantastic tabletop game store. They offer Magic the gathering events, as well as Pokémon, riftbound, starwars, one piece and other! There are also regular board game nights. The staff is very friendly, helpful and knowledgeable in what they each know. If one can't help you anther can. If you are looking for a place to play any kind of game on a table; I would reccomened you do it at Paragon”
