I don't know what the basis of this comment is.
It's just standard run of the mill hyperbole, bro.
If CGL fails, Topps will license the rights to the highest bidder and the game will go on.
And this. The genre, and game, is too popular to not get picked up. It just might not be in the way the new publisher or Topps would wish if this does come to pass. I have no idea how the new edition is doing broadly, so I couldn't begin to speculate.
The "stans"
Some people just don't like the feel of the new rules, some love the feel. Both are fine.
Some people don't find the new rule set logical, others do. Also Both fine.
Some people don't find the new rule set well constructed or balanced, others do. Also both fine.
Some people disregard other people's criticism because it doesn't align with their perspective, though. You might be fighting a losing battle with your proper use of logic there, but god speed my dude.
Edit: The additional comments I had here were a result of misreading MC's last statement. As such, retracted. My bad Mikey!
