Comms? Are we going to have MTGA ever be a social game?
This game from day 0 was a social game for me. That has not changed. MTGA is one of the most ANTIsocial games out there lol.

That is unpleasant.
Hire mods. Build out a report function. Give optional text censors (you can select categories). Mute chat. 'Report this chat' (as opposed to WotC storing every chat and no this isnt a text file that you have to upload separately but an in client reporting system for X, Y, Z reports). Then issue a chat box.
Some things I would like to write:
"Is this a combo?" (especially helpful for newer players who think something is up)
"Love your deck!"
"BRB, I need to sign for something" (in game pause that both players can issue but the other can cancel if they dont accept the pause)
"Do you have X?" (or ideally there is a 'reveal selected cards', maybe my opponent wants proof I have grape shot and thus I dont have to storm off a ton because they will concede)
[super hard to dodge the bad formatting tools. Can we just have BBCode or HTML but what is * vs **]

Feel free to poll WotC employees and then poll MTGA players. You should find with enough tools and human hours, the respectful rulings by WotC can set a tone for a healthy chat.
No racism.
No sexism.
No scams.
No slurs.
