-Landtapping is often done badly, making it so we can't cast another spell after casting the fist, while with more effecient tapping we could have. An option tomanually tap in any shape or form would solve any AI issues/development

Multiplayer quitting issues: not only don't you unlock a card, you dont gain points for your rank either
-an all systems (not only xbla) archenemy slows down after players have several cards on the table
-you have deck reveals as a bug under steam, whereas it shoud be a bug under psn and xbla if I understood you cirrectly

 I dont see mentioned there that when i try to see the LEaderboards the game crashes. (on Steam)
 Had a friend with the same problem and he solved it by fixing the file on cache. But when i go verify integrity of game cache.. it fails to validate 1 file, it then says it will download it again to fix this.
It does donwload 1 file for Magic 2012 , but after restart on Steam and all, still crashes on the Leaderboards.

 The manual tapping of mana would def. be a great deal for players, cause i lost already a few creatures on the field cause of it.

mind control has the same issues as Yavimaya's Embrace
at least the haste aspect. haven't confirmed the issue with it returning to it's owner

and i wouldn't say it grants haste but that it doesn't cause summoning sickness. if you take control on the turn after it was cast it keeps it's summoning sickness. but if you wait until it is no longer sick then it doesn't become sick again when you steal it.
