Oh no! My speculative buying of shitloads of MTG cards to make money selling the good ones is failing! People might have access to the best cards without spending copious amounts of money to middlemen! It’s very dangerous to the game if people can be good at it without it being rich!
It's not the card speculators suing, it's the corpo investors.
The way I read the article, the plaintiff is both, but it doesn't explicitly say that. It just makes sense that plaintiff is both a player, using the scarcity to their advantage, and also an investor in the company -- i.e. losing $$$ in both cases. I'll be curious to see if this suit goes anywhere.
