The real cause is autism. It always comes down to autism. It is both sometimes inherent, but moreso an infectious mental disease brought on by heavy technology use in formative childhood years. This in turn creates a more lucrative market opportunities to subsume children in technology products.

I remember during the Return to Dominaria set about six years ago, it had two giga OP cards that were $50 each. You needed four, of both of them, so just 20% of your deck was already pushing $400. These were also brand new cards, not the super expensive vintage cards from 20 years ago.

There are individual cards worth that much even outside of the most expensive formats.
When I played MTG in Seattle , mainly "modern" (a mid-level cost format) it was a bunch of lawyers and SWEs that played it, and decks were a couple thousand each.

Eh, now that's hyperbole. Modern top tier decks are just $1,000. It's only when you get to Legacy etc. that cost starts going up to the thousands.

Is modern cheaper now? Back when I played you could rack up about 1000$ off of fetchland manabase alone.

These days even the most expensive fetches are under $20, with some even under $10. Mana bases are thankfully not as expensive as they used to be.

The format where you only play with 2 year old cards usually is $200-$300 for forty cards (not including the twenty land cards that are essentially free).
It's been a long time since I paid attention to MtG prices but I remember decks of the format where you play with 15 year old cards can run $600 to $800 ish.
The format where you can play with every card is $1000+, as some cards are on the very stupid "we promise to never reprint these" list.

This is about right except the last part. First format mentioned is "standard", decks run around 300 dollars.
Second format is "modern", decks run around 1000 dollars.
Last format is "vintage", decks run around 50,000 dollars.
Legacy, where you can play almost every card, is more "reasonable" with decks running around 4000 dollars.

It's so much worse than that. I started playing in 1994 and quit in 1999. I was pretty serious about it. When my dad moved, I got my cards out of his basement and sold them to a distributor. Prices exploded at some point during my years away from the game and I made enough to buy a new truck outright.

Honestly, when cards are just called some random inane restaurant owner or whatever it was called, I could live with that. Most of the cards looked so alien from the peter jackson movies it was kinda ok.
But when it then proliferates to "orcish bowmasters" being a staple in many games, it takes me right the frick out of whatever I was being immersed in before. At the very least it wasn't "Chudman, pronoun hater" yet, but I'm excited for the next slopfest

Every attempt WotC has made to capitalize on "the mtg lore" in the last decade has been a humiliating failure.
it seems to me that it's impossible to get people invested into a TCG. Maybe there's a way to make it work but wotc certainly ain't gonna do it. They seem like a pretty dysfunctional organization. It seems crazy that they are just selling cards in the exact same way they did back in 1994.
From wotc's perspective the pivot to UB makes total sense. Might as well tap (get it?) into the only worthwhile assets they have, mainly the game system and treasure trove of r-slurred players. combine both of those things with characters and worlds that people actually give a shit about.
Most importantly: sales have never been higher!

On the bright side, WotC has printed some alternate art cards that fit into the main universe and have the same abilities as Secret Lair cards (ie Rick, Steadfast Leader and Greymond, Avacyn's Stalwart). Although, differentiating the alternate universe cards and making them unique was a massive design mistake. It sucks butt NotC is milking it so hard, but slop enjoyers will be slop enjoyers.
