New release of AKH cards

It looks like there's now a "deal" on to get some of the new cards, Amonkhet card packs now have a higher chance of containing them.  No info on how much higher this chance is, and in any case I'm not buying anything because there was no warning and I literally spent my saved up crystals last week.

But still, has anyone gotten anything from the revised packs?

    I am also tempted by this "deal" because I have no AKH mythics but I would like to know first if this 'higher chance' applies to weekly bundle from special offers or it's better to give up on extra booster pack and buy it directly from the offer. Also some people report that this promotion is broken : https://forums.d3go.com/discussion/65365/amonkhet-set-promotion-broken#latest so I guess I will wait.

    I believe the notification I read said that the chances are double what they normally are that you would pull some of the new cards.

    I opened one Premium Pack and pulled the blue rare serpent, Angler Drake, and the blue uncommon that steals a creature.

    Also, to anyone reading this, DO NOT OPEN YOUR HOARDED PACKS. THEY DO NOT CONTAIN THE NEW CARDS. YOU MUST SPEND CRYSTALS ON THE LIMITED OFFER IF YOU WANT THEM.

    Also, a lot of people (including me) have had bugged purchases, losing crystals but not receiving the packs

    Also, looks like the reward packs from Trial of Strength add to the pile of packs not containing new cards...

    As for the original question, I spent my banked crystals on it. Got a bunch of good stuff. Two of the new mythics and my first masterpiece. I'm not upset by this.

    Is this a bug or a new feature @brigby?  Are the AKH packs that we had in inventory never going to contain the new cards or future exclusives?  Or is this a temporary issue/bug?

    I spoke with the developers, and it appears that they are only temporarily unavailable in packs during the current promotional period, which will end this week.
