    They want to resist any controversy stemming from kids having their cards scammed away or their account stolen, but more importantly, they want to stop you making multiple accounts to open more packs and trade the best cards to a single account.

    But since they don't have a good solution to these problems, they instead restrict trading to the point it may as well not exist.

    Oh well, guess you will have to buy more packs to get the cards you want.
