Regardless of this bug... this part is completely insane:
As I write this, its most expensive champion is listed at $256,570,000.
- https://championstactics.ubisoft.com/marketplace?sort=price_desc
  There is an even more expensive one now.
  
  Listed didn’t mean anything unless it’s bought though, right?
  
  I honestly can't tell these apart between a $200k one and a $10 one. They're all just different outputs from the same prompt
  
  all of those look like they're made with heroforge https://www.heroforge.com/ - or similar.
  At least with heroforge you actually get a physical miniature
  (edit: to be clear: no nft's at heroforge, they just print miniatures, which you build/design with their site. that's all)
- Maybe if it's the invincible guy, that's worth it.
- Why is it insane? Is it surprising that people make joke offers? Joke offers exist on any online auction site.
- What's wrong with clean money, eh?
Its characters cost as much as $63,000 in cryptocurrency, despite the fact that I'm not entirely sure what you can do with them once you own them
My guess: what cryptocurrency was originally invented for; money laundering.
That's okay, you can drop any pretense of trying to actually make a game around your crypto scam.
Congrats for banning two innocent customers for "security reasons" (apparently code for "your own incompetence"), that's definitely the kind of thing you need to make your ~~victims~~ customers trust your shady bullshit.
