Given how they dance around the issue about collections (instead of guaranteeing the safety of them), I'd brace for some epic shitstorm sooner or later.
The tweet is deleted, but you probably made the right call. Since the cards are supposed to be pretty easy to buy/sell I figured when I sold out that if I really missed it I'd just buy back in.

I do get the urge to play every once in a while, but never nearly enough to dump back in even half of the ~$2000 I apparently had on there. Makes me really think about my paper collection too, but at least for that I don't have to put up with unending interface issues to play. Seriously though, $2000 for a single game. Not even the full game, but just a single mode of play. Comparing it with other computer games makes it seem so ridiculous. I had like 3 decks of the 5-8 or so that I'd like to mess around with. Try to imagine if you had to pay $2000 for less than half of a full computer game.

Not to mention they never even had a free-to-play ranked mode when you did buy all the cards. Sure you wouldn't really win money like in tournaments, but just logging on and playing in a somewhat competitive area for free shouldn't be beyond WotC's shitty programming skills.
