I am of the opinion AR will be coming to mtgpq before those 3 issues are fixed, if ever.

Where does everyone else want to see this game go? Since they did get AER out so fast, I'm hoping there will be some serious bug fixing work done in the next month or so. After that, I'd love to see their take on some of the older sets. I'd imagine if they do start making old sets, they won't go back past Lorwyn since that was when pw cards were first introduced. And in that case, I predict Return to Ravnica. Popular set and I'd love to get Vraska in game.

Given the fact that the next paper release is over 3 months away (4/28/17), I don't see what else they would do during that time. They have been averaging new card sets every 8 weeks and players are now used to that so I think they will have to do something in the interim.

Sure, and I bet it will involve a lot of Fateful Showdowns. Honestly, though, I'm just not sure they have permission/rights to do that beyond the initial planeswalker seeding pre-BFZ. They've been nothing but linear since.
