Ah. Pirate Stompy was hilarious (if ethically dubious), didn't know about the bounty.

It was, but people bought up terrible Masques pirates before they came clean. If someone had bought up the cards beforehand then it would be scummy, though I haven't heard that particular allegation before.

Metazoo I have to believe was started just to try to sell as a collectable, because that layout is even worse than the 90s tcgs.

HootTheOwl posted:Marketing your game as filling to void in big prize wizard chess that magic left when it abandoned the pro tour and then not dropping the hammer on your champ straight up cheating is a bad look imo. Nah that was part of growth of competitive magic too. Someone just needs to step up and be the Chris Pikula of F&B.

There were enough people who wanted to be one to support paywalled strategy articles and $100-200 Goyfs. It was by any metric a dumb aspiration, but there were plenty of 18-25 year old ubernerds who wanted to play Magic for a living badly enough to support the ecosystem.
