Its as popular as it ever was, actually, but it also got super super gay. Lots of licensed sets not like TMNT, Lord of the Rings, Final Fantasy, etc. Trannies took over all the nerd hobbies like DnD and Magic.

Imagine rolling into a MTG tournament with a crew of your bros, all perfect phenotypes with hitler youth haircuts, and just ethnically cleansing all of the shitlibs out in the first round with your decks full of Black Lotuses, Moxes, and Dual Lands. Every round from the second all the way through the finals is just clean cut alpha white bros with maybe a token azn.

EDH became a popular casual format and then WotC began supporting it ("Commander"); this is now the dominant form, and the four person nature of the game means that it has all sorts of dumb shitty "Rule 0" "let people enjoy things" energy coming in.

At the same time, Hasbro realized that it could print money by doing licensing deals with other IP. The LotR set was actually 180 (because it's in keeping with the fantasy setting) but now we have Fallout and Marvel and so on.

Premodern offers something of a Reprieve but it's a little too sweaty.

"MTG Commander is a casual multiplayer format of the Magic: The Gathering card game where each player builds a 100-card deck around a chosen legendary creature or Planeswalker called a "Commander." In this format, players can only include one copy of each card (except basic lands) and start with 40 life points."

Wow I just threw up in my mouth a little. 100 cards no dupes...that isn't even a "deck."

It started out as a homebrew format where the idea was to use all the janky rares and dumb combos that weren't viable anywhere else and it was fun

But now it's all streamlined and optimized and stupid as hell

And lots of players now act like having "four of the same card" is "stupid and uncreative" when it comes to 60 card MtG

Imagine the game being overrun by turo redditors and you're on the right track

The original game’s players were unable to reproduce, and the game disappeared with them; the vacant niche was then occupied by a grotesque Ninja Turtles–themed offshoot bearing little resemblance to its ancestor.
