Big Box "Bonus OGW Pack"?

To anyone who has purchased a BFZ-block big box since the update:

Was the bonus pack in your box actually an Oath of the Gatewatch pack (which I assume means a pack with only OGW cards), or did you just get 15 BFZ packs?

I don't think my extra pack was any different from the others, although maybe I wasn't paying close enough attention. I'm just trying to figure out if I misunderstood the bonus pack language, if I didn't notice that one of them was all OGW, or what.

    yes you shouldve gotten one pack with only uncommons+, i know i did. however i think i remember receiving it not in the same order. like it isnt always the lsat 5 pack you open up, i think i opened it like 3rd or something

    I had one that was only OGW cards. As stated above, it wasn't the first or last pack, it was somewhere in the middle, like fifth.

    Yeah, it's somewhere in with the other 14 normal BoZ packs (a big box normally has 14 packs, after 1.5 landed there are 15 which includes the bonus OtW pack). It really isn't well marked as it has the same ( ? ) pack illustration as the BoZ packs - which means it will always be a surprise until you notice a pack with 0 commons and all OtW cards.

    It's an Oath of the Gatewatch pack and it includes 5 Oath cards which are uncommon or better.

    I may have gotten the nut draw, but I pulled 4 Mythics and 13 Rares out of my Big Box. Some of which were duplicates of themselves and got crushed into runes, but I feel I made out overall.

    I'm not a fan of the prices that the powers that be choose to charge for these products, but I will admit that if someone were to spend $100 cash on this game, getting 4,000 crystals and using it to get nearly 7 Big Boxes of BFZ would definitely set you up with some nice stuff.
