That's not true. Magic does not have an upper deck size limit. They just state you have to be able to shuffle the deck yourself. This eliminates any decks that would be ridiculously large. Pokemon had a 60-card limit long before Yugioh was a thing. Pokemon TCG is older than the anime.

I seem to recall a similar story in basketball, where a team (I think it was in the college leagues?) got an early free throw, got the ball and then wasted time. They made no attempt to score and it was next to impossible for the other team to get the ball. Players just sat down on the court and the ref started reading the paper. They won 1-0 in a sport where the average score per game is around 80-90, and very soon afterwards they added a shot clock to punish extreme delay tactics.
