OK, Sayed says that Artifacts are for rich players:
“Artefacts are designed for rich players and they give them a fair bit of power in return for a lot of cash. There are limits and costs associated with each usage. When the power is exercised, those who have their stock restructured or taken over are paid fair prices for the loss of those shares. Simply put: Artefacts rebalances the competition to enable rich players a chance of winning as well.”
