Considering the success of the Lord of the Rings IP in Magic: The Gathering through Universes Beyond, one can argue that Game of Thrones would be great for sales in Magic: The Gathering since both franchises are very similar to one another and have respected fan bases for each of them. I can see Wizards of the Coast / Hasbro enhancing on the Monarch mechanic in Commander as well as the whole "Winter Is Coming" moniker with more Snow themed cards similar to what we saw in Kaldheim. I'm not too familiar with the Game of Thrones IP as I am with the Lord of the Rings and The Hobbit IP's but it'd be interesting to see what Wizards of the Coast / Hasbro would do with Game of Thrones in Magic: The Gathering going forward.

I remember Game of Thrones used to be one of the most pirated TV series on the Internet for those who weren't subscribed to HBO Max's streaming services up until Amazon got their hands on the IP which is ironic because Wizards of the Coast / Hasbro is also partners with them as well. Unfortunately the writing for Game of Thrones fell off a cliff and there was a famous scene where one of the actors left a cup of Starbucks coffee filmed within the series. One of the guys at a barber shop I used to go to before the pandemic was a HUGE Game of Thrones fan. Unfortunately there's not as much hype for Game of Thrones nowadays like there is for the Lord of the Rings and the Hobbit.

Yeah, the popularity died out very fast during and after the final season. I haven't watched that House of Dragons prequel show (or whatever it's called), but it looks like it's pretty popular.
A game of thrones set would make a million times more sense than Dr.Who, 40k and fallout. Just don't have cards with tits and dicks showing and you're good to go.
