What root should I take ?

why not play 18 or 45 man turbo's? 45 man turbo's take about 1-1.5 hrs if i remember correctly. or play hypertrubo's if u want fast and furious action , easy to put in volume as well and u mainly only need to focus on push/fold strategies

Ty for your input but i don't think i'll improve my poker skills playing hyper-turbos (i'm not saying there's nothing to learn in them tough).

Since your goal includes MTTs, what could be better than the 180 man ?

I also would not give up on cash games.

Please recognize that I am horribly biassed -- I prefer cash games over tournaments. I think that for learning, cash games provide a better opportunity to learn the basics.

You will learn:
♦ Position
♦ Hand values
♦ Reading opponents' hands

and all without pressure from ever-increasing blinds.
For me it is very hard to learn these things when you have so much more to consider when playing a tournament -- things like relative stack sizes and so forth.

Everything you learn in cash games applies to tournaments -- but not necessarily the other way around.

^^this tbh.

But then again I'm also a cash game player. Plus if you have bust some rolls it's kinda sucky to keep grinding cash.

But it also will improve your postflop game a lot.

Then there is the ICM game. Take a look in our poker tools section! You might find some stuff thats going to improve your game a lot.

Also don't forget about the hand evaluation forums! We have great judges and that will improve your game without a doubt!

I think i know the fundamentals of SNGMTT's and basically nothing about cash games, so idk if is a good idea to mix both, guess would be better to stick to one format.

Well, MTTs are games that require huge amount of volume/time since each game just take so long. And for turbo mtts, it is even more swingly and the edge is smaller. Maybe some sngs or hyper turbo games are better for you if you have little time and those games are profitable too. Maybe you are not good at those games yet, but you will improve later.
