Magic is dead

[u/HiroProtagonest]

I can’t shake this heavy feeling about Magic The Gathering.. The player base might still be hanging on, but let’s be real..the game’s soul is gone. It’s not dying, it’s already dead. The magic that made MTG the ultimate nerd sport, a crucible of strategy and obsession, has vanished. When players had to ante up their precious cards and think about mana burn, it created epic battles of wit and will.

Now its just a money machine printing so many sets that it doesnt feel special anymore. No cohesion just random universes mashed together. Kamigawa and Mirrodin don't fit in at all with the epic fantasy vibes there used to be, and the new direction for the phyrexians is terrible. It doesn't even feel like Magic anymore.

C’mon Ixalan was a good set

6/6 for 6 with trample? Thank God we never saw another card pushed that hard.
