@Fluid @mike no, a non growing company is illegal and a failure.
Private ownership has up sides.
It'll never happen, but the only way to make Magic better for the players is if Hasbro sold off WoTC. I can't even come up with a scenario that would cause them to sell, it seems to be the only thing keeping them alive.
@mike and it's too big to be brough by anyone who would act noticbly better.
Unlessit has already 'died'
Yeah that's a very good point. If WoTC starts getting their lunch eaten by a rival game (cough Sorcery Contested Realm cough) or if anything else happens that starts tanking demand then I could definitely see them selling it off for the short term gain while they "regroup on traditional games in their product lineup".
