After reading the comment threads on these last few TOR posts, it's pretty easy to determine there's nothing Bioware can do to ruin this game. The "community" is going to do it for them.

I just recently delved back into my old MTGO collections when I heard they'd made pauper a tournament format. (Which turned out to be a waste of time... the format is broken as all hell, and the cards needed in some cases are fetching rare prices... but I digress.)
