It certainly been proven to be broken at various times. The last time there was a promotional weekend they admitted afterwards the drop rate was broken.
Just last weekend, they had a promotional event. Supposed to be double the drop rate and two single promo cards were supposed to drop, rarely. Some folk saw a number of drops of boosters, the vast majority didn't see any drops at all.
I could leave it there and get more 'its not broken', 'you don't understand how chance works' replies. Except after cross server player action they backed down, admitted it was broken (significantly, only for some players and only on some servers) and every single player who logged in over the weekend was given both promo cards automatically, a couple of days later.
So, they've gone much further than admitting, on more than one occasion, that drops have been broken. And this is just the times where players have made big protests. We don't know how many other times and for how many people its broken at other times or even, possibly, on a permanent basis. All we can do is have discussions like this one and similar ones on the official forums.
This is getting away from the fact the robbing bastards are still selling massive amounts of cards to people who cant use them for tournies or promotional events, without telling people or even acknowledging or discussing the issue.
