I don't like rule 3 though, just because you want an Autobot deck for an event, depending on the rewards you've picked up in the previous event or two, it may just be that a decepticon is best up front - but I suspect you'll be able to judge this based on age/quality of the leader card

As others have pointed out, I don't think rule 4 is really appropriate - even with x3 attack bonus the x3 raid card may not be good enough to make many decks. I don't have a deck like the big boys, but I've got a handful of tier 2 cards and the rest are tier 3 and the x3 raid card has not be added to my deck by the 'recommend' for the last couple of events - so playing for free will mean I won't have a raid card in my deck.

As far as rule goes, keeping an eye on the forum will give you an idea of who might be taking a break for an event - you don't want to drop on the top 100 players just because they need a break for an event ;)

I think even if the particular person's deck contains all T2 cards, a fully MTM x3 raid card will definitely be placed as the leader because of its superior attack. I dont think any T2 cards so far has an attack that will outmatched the x3 offered by the raid card, even if the raid card has a lousy attack, like in this event. That is of course after getting to the 2M mark on points reward which is not that difficult. But prior to that, especially during the early days of the campaign, a one sided x 3 raid card usually does not make the deck of anyone these days.
