Wizards of the Coast sends Pinkerton agents after YouTuber who unboxed a leaked Magic: The Gathering card set

Seriously. We used to do embargoes on video game releases when I was in the industry. But we never attempted longer than 24-48 hours. Basically just enough time to get the shelves stocked and the trailer videos up so that everything could be launched all at once across the country.

We never did anything longer than that because we knew you can’t trust every teenager in every GameStop across the country to do the thing you want.

Wizards is trying to embargo for months?! Yah, good luck with that.
