Roughly the same rules that I use - though it is flexible, higher rank players generally get more time before being cut.

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 ;)
