All these things are still true. Big cards get pulled. The top tourney players make a killing. AH working is incredibly lucrative if you know what to look for.

Absolutely false. Between my PT20 team and 2 other F2Ps I know, we have 24 Perfect WS titles in PT20.

Every single time these threads get created, the response is always "There isn't a limit to F2P, you just have to put in the time." I have personally won 2 diamond titles in PT21 as a F2P in BFF, already have nearly full coverage for all the existing and upcoming FotF sets, and I don't even think I have the best team among F2P players.
To be successful, you have to either put in time or money (or maybe get a little lucky). Those are your options. If you don't put in time (spend grinding tourneys or doing AH stuff or collections or whatever), or put in money, you will always be caught up with all the other no-money-no-time players doing the same thing, and passed up by the players that put in the resources. No structure, no ladder, nothing will change that reality.
