Frankly, as a gamer, I have been pretty dismayed at wizards' playtesting. Have you seen the playtest list ? There are scores of people I recognize that work for their Magic line - Hell, even Richard Garfield, the creator of Magic, was a playtester. Its not that these people are bad playtesters, but that Wizards was not doing any meaningful playtesting.
They needed to have guys that are dedicated and extremely knowledgeable about the game - like Stalker0 and Hypersmurf and scores of others that really care enough about the game to provide meaningful input and craft a better finished product. Turn to your fanbase and get them involved - it's a win-win situation and a path that Wizards definitely should have taken before now (I'm lookin' at you, artificer !)
