Whatever they end up legally calling it, Valve started and profits off a gambling market. They are still a positive in the gaming space compared to the public companies so I’m willing to look the other way

[Dave @NutmegDave]

Flimsy argument here. None of the examples cited by Valve also include a secondary market in which Valve makes real money off the sale of every item. They are arguing that none of the items are more valuable than the others while profiting from a market based on the opposite

[Pirat_Nation 🔴 @Pirat_Nation]

Valve has asked the court to throw out the New York Attorney General’s lawsuit, citing Pokémon cards, Happy Meals, and Labubus, accusing the company of illegal gambling through Counter-Strike weapon skin “cases.”

The lawsuit claims these mystery “cases” in Counter-Strike 2 and CS:GO let players, including kids, gamble real money by paying for a chance at rare virtual items

In a 42-page filing on May 19, Valve says the “cases” do not count as gambling under New York law because players always get a random weapon skin for the money they pay, just like buying sealed packs of baseball cards, Pokémon cards, or the toy in a cereal box.

The company says there is no “stake” or chance of losing money, as it is just the surprise element common in collectibles.

Valve warns that the Attorney General’s idea could make normal activities illegal, such as parents buying trading cards for their kids or families playing arcade games. The filing notes that these loot boxes have been sold for over ten years without objection from any other U.S. state.

Valve wants the court to dismiss the whole case “with prejudice.” If denied, the lawsuit seeks triple damages on billions of dollars Valve made, plus an order to stop sales to New York residents.

Everybody’s hating on this but the sanctity of the tournament is not damaged if more bubble teams get a shot at play ins.

If the bracket looks the same at R64 the TV networks get paid, the bubble stops whining and everyone can be happy.

And I didn’t forget “2019 overtime vs. Stephen F. Austin”

[Dave @NutmegDave]

By 5 banners you must mean “2026 up 19 points in the elite 8,” “2026 tied @ UNC with less than one second left,” “2025 up 14 in the Final Four,” “2024 Bought Kevin Keats another yeah in Raleigh,” and “More watchable than UConn.” Hang em high.

[Remmik @BRemmik]

@CalhounColonel Nah - we already have 5.

Not enough room

So much tv money just to collapse in the elite 8 in hilarious fashion
