Perhaps you see winning as capturing the Perfect Team championship? Completing all missions? Taking home a PTCS/PTMS/PTWC crown? Having a copy of every card? No matter what the choice, there has to be something invested to get to that point - be it time or money (as money is simply a replacement for time). Having a system in a game such as this where you need neither in order to "win" is nonsensical.
That's a great point. There are ways to "win" that I hadn't considered.

I still think that the system is skewed excessively in favor of the people who have a lot of surplus money and/or a lot of surplus time to invest in any of the "wins" you mentioned.

But I'm self-aware enough to know that a good portion of that may come from my bitterness at playing the game since release date and not once getting a historical perfect card from a pack in my main team.

Thanks for the perspective.
