Regardless of this bug... this part is completely insane:

As I write this, its most expensive champion is listed at $256,570,000.

There is an even more expensive one now.

Listed didn’t mean anything unless it’s bought though, right?

It does tell something about the company selling them.

The sellers are players. Of course people are going to troll by creating such offers. Doesn't mean anything.

Isn't it P2P?

Oh, I thought they're ubisoft offerings and not users reselling.

I thought the point of the nft games was to be able to trade everything between players?

The article has a store link, but I have no idea what any of the stuff on there actually means.

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

You're paying for the better seed, obviously. Do you think random numbers come for free?

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.

What's wrong with clean money, eh?

Why is it insane? Is it surprising that people make joke offers? Joke offers exist on any online auction site.
