I have played against people who are loosing to my late-game comeback with crosswinds, and they pause all the time, I think just to marvel at their 9+ manna game-winners being cancelled.
I hate rage-quitters though, but at least the AI takes over. Does this affect your multiplayer ranking? I personally always try to play to the bitter end, even if facing a humiliating defeat.

I don't leave even if I am losing. I'll take the loss like a man.

It is rather funny, that time, because he paused for a good 2 minutes on his turn after casting his medallion, all mana tapped, with his single creature, and me with 7 creatures and he is down to 2 health. On my turn, he paused again, and left before I attack.

RE: Promo cards unlock, I am not sure if they (Magic 2013 devs) were able to fix it already, but before, there are complaints that the cards, after unlocking the 10 codes, are not being saved. My tip, after unlocking the 10 promo cards, go to player status, wait for your status to update, exit, make sure it saves, and you are most likely good to go. You should have 40/40 cards unlocked now. Enjoy.

When you conceed, does the other player win immediately or does the AI take over?

The AI takes over. I'm not sure how I feel about that. Sometimes it's better to scoop or let someone scoop so you can play more games in limited time. But I suppose this fixes cheating for rank or maybe there is some other reason?

Well, in games like Neuroshima Hex, where there is no AI takeover, it can be very annoying when someone rage-quits on you, and robs you of victory, so I am glad that the AI does take over!

How can rage-quitting rob you of victory? If your opponent quits, you win!

That's a good point, sometimes the experience of swinging for the win is really enjoyable, especially after a longer game with a lot of buildup!

But it would be nice if it were an option.

Your opponent concedes! You win!
Would you like the AI to take over? Yes/No

Edit: actually another good reason for this is that I don't think there's an option to concede against your current opponent and ask for a rematch like there is in Ascension, etc. Conceding kicks you out of multiplayer entirely iirc.

Well, in Neuroshima, - which I gave as an example, the game merely tells you that th game is finished. It's all just semantics though I suppose. And as Plynx said, it can be really fun executing your winning turn/s.

That is a good idea actually. Overall though, I like that the AI takes over.

The "Would you like the AI to take over? Yes/No" option would be good.

For now, I guess won't be using the conceed button. I rather do nothing and have the opponent win faster and see if he gives me a rematch.

And while it's embarrassing to admit, I actually lost games after the AI took over.

Same here! It was against obedient dead and they just stomped all over me a few turns later.

Just found out yesterday that this app is region based, so I can't play people I know in the US
