The fact that devs themselves use the "fishing" expression tells me that aside from basic testing, none of them have seriously played astro. Those of us who have, figured out a long time ago that every card had some value and (pre-5.0) had more than one use, so we weren't just treating each draw like fishing for balance out of a barrel. Devs aren't really playing healers and nobody from the media darling tour was representing healers either... which is how SHB managed to get released with healing being so out-of-whack, especially for AST. If I was a dev responsible for 5.0 AST I'd hide in shame.
