Sirlin on Magic the Gathering

 Edge: Is it simply the fact that you have to buy the cards that's evil in Magic The Gathering? 

Sirlin: "Their business model is based on the idea that you buy a lottery ticket that inside might be rare and might not.  You basically have to buy your way into power. If you have no cards and you want to buy a tournament deck, it costs about $300. I mean, that's crazy expensive, and it's surprising that people accept that."

It's like the man was channeling my own thoughts! I always knew he was a special boy.
