* ImmortalityHurts: Squee, the Immortal is as his name suggests. He's rather boastful about being Immortal, but is shown to still feel pain. When Donald Trump duels him in the movie, he uses this weakness to force Squee to give up when he takes control of Squee's infinite mana burn combo.

* AdaptationalHeroism: When Dagoth Ur is first seen, he is more in line with his persona of being the MadGod he's known as, originally wanting to bring the worship of Akulakhan to America. However, once he's beaten by Donald Trump, Joe Biden, and Ben Shapiro, he grows a newfound respect and friendship for them, saves Barack Obama, and offers to help them in the future.
** This pays off in the second season especially during his duel with [[spoiler: Brandon]], in which he reveals that he's come to value his new friends immensely, and will do anything he can to help them if they need it.

[[https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLcoYjFtmRrIOzaGiWYuJRGQoZB845Lhg3 ''Presidents Play Magic The Gathering'']] is a [=YouTube=] series created by Sjbninja that portrays the presidents of the United States, as well as other celebrities and well-known figures, playing the card game [[TabletopGame/MagicTheGathering Magic: The Gathering]] together using AI voices from Eleven Labs.
The series follows the main group of [[UsefulNotes/BarackObama Barack Obama]], [[UsefulNotes/DonaldTrump Donald Trump]], [[UsefulNotes/JoeBiden Joe Biden]] and Ben Shapiro. Starting out with them simply playing in Obama's basement with some guests joining it at times, it soon progresses into a more overarching story with multiple important characters and storylines, all centered around playing games of Magic.
----
! This series provides examples of:
* AwesomenessByAnalysis: Bernie Sanders is able to beat several of the main characters by analyzing their play patterns and bringing in decks designed to counter their preferred playstyles.
* BadAss: No other than the premier MemeticBadass himself, Chuck Norris. He may be soft-spoken and easy-going most of the time, but he is not one to be trifled with and can even ''rewrite the rules of Magic'' on the fly if he feels like it.
* TheBaroness: Hillary Clinton. She is a cold-hearted, no-nonsense woman who wants the boys out of the way by any means necessary, and it is also strongly implied that she is a {{Dominatrix}} who uses Andrew Tate as a sex slave.
* BigBad:
** The first season has Bush, although he [[spoiler:gets [[HijackedByGanon Hijacked By]] [[VideoGame/TheElderScrollsIIIMorrowind Dagoth Ur]] in the climax]].
** The second season has Hillary Clinton, who has an axe to grind against Trump and Biden.
* {{Crossover}}: [[spoiler: With TheElderScrolls, of all things. [[VideoGame/TheElderScrollsIIIMorrowind Dagoth Ur]] shows up in the season 1 finale as the final opponent that Trump, Biden and Ben have to face.]]
* TheDragon: Bernie Sanders has a habit of serving as one, playing top enforcer to both Bush and Clinton.
* DuelsDecideEverything: Every problem can usually be solved with a game of ''Magic the Gathering''. Naturally, this gets lampshaded more than a few times. Even [[spoiler:[[VideoGame/TheElderScrollsIIIMorrowind Dagoth Ur]] of all people]] has a ''Magic'' deck. He's not even from our ''universe''!
* {{Flanderization}}: Intentionally. Everyone's real life traits are exaggerated and PlayedForLaughs, such as Biden being quick to fall asleep, forget what he's doing or devolve into a weird rant about the past. This also plays into their deck construction.
* FourTemperamentEnsemble:
** Sanguine: Biden
** Choleric: Trump
** Melancholic: Ben
** Phlegmatic: Obama
* HopelessBossFight: Chuck Norris. He was soundly crushing the boys, but luckily had to leave before he could finish them off.
* RunningGag:
** Joe repeatedly bringing up "playing VideoGame/AmongUs with the boys" and them touching his legs while he's sitting in a pool.
* SmallNameBigEgo:
** Andrew Tate. He talks a big game, but his deck barely works, as it is built for flavor over function, and absolutely everyone, even the person employing him, treats him like an absolute joke.
** Trump has shades of this too. While he is ''far'' more competent than Tate, if you only went by his own words, you'd think he is the greatest ''Magic'' player in the universe.
* StoneWall: Trump's go-to strategy is employing Defender creatures, including many ''very literal'' walls. He tries to win by either turning them into [[LightningBruiser viable combat threats]] with Arcades the Strategist or simply stalling out the game until he can pull off a noncombat win condition, such as Azor's Elocutors.
* TheLastOfTheseIsNotLikeTheOthers: The four main characters of the series are three presidents of the United States... and conservative political commentator Ben Shapiro, for some reason.
* VitriolicBestBuds: All of the main four constantly bicker with and trash talk each other during their games, Trump especially, but greatly care for each other despite this.
* ZergRush: Biden's preferred strategy is to flood the board with token creatures and [[WeHaveReserves sacrifice them for value]].
