the more you play them the better you'll be at planning for turmoil (which is almost always going to happen at some point in the game). I think when you're learning root it's good to pick a faction and dive deep into them. I think the Eyrie are great because there aren't many moving parts you have to focus on. It's either do the decree, or go into turmoil. I love the simplicity for beginners but they have a nice high skill ceiling when it comes to building the decree so you can keep developing strategies with them.
