    The information I've seen puts this "gift" in the category of a mistake, just like the elite pack was.  Expectations of an apology or re-run are likely to lead only to disappointment.

    This reminds me of when many of us got a free elite pack, except this time there's less communication about it.
    Yeah. This is ridiculous. My opinion on the subject hasn't changed since the last scandal; they should run with it and generate some goodwill. At this point it feels like they're just trying to fail.

    Nice to know Oktagon is following in Hibernum's tradition of excellence.

    Hi Everyone. Apologies for the delayed communication, as we have been rather busy at New York Comic Con.

    The Premium Pack was in fact accidentally sent out to players. If you have already claimed it, then you are welcome to keep the cards, however we will not be able to credit players the Premium Pack if you were unable to claim it during its availability.

    Any pictures of your stall there? I'm imagining it emblazoned with the logo "Play MTG:PQ! It almost works!"

    (additional sub-file people who had the pack explode and now can't even get into the game aka it was a virus)

    Hi bken1234. Are you saying that players are unable to play the game specifically after claiming the premium pack?

    Yes. There are players who claimed the premium pack, it exploded instead of opening and now they are consistently getting the SWW error.

    Thanks for the confirmation. I'll pass this info along to the team to investigate.

    Really speaks to the way they treat customer satisfaction when their apology for errors is also an error.

    I wrote a ticket since I couldn't open mine. I got an answer that I should not have even gotten a gift in the first place an der that it was a bug.

    Lol glad I opened mine. I actually got a super useful rare that I'd been chasing after for months.

    I actually pulled a Baral out of my free pack.  First new card in quite a while, and it’s qctually a good one.
