VIP Standard pack weirdness (20 mythic/masterpieces in 4 packs)

in MtGPQ General Discussion
So, I got VIP membership. 

Opened my 4 standard packs. Wasn't expecting much.

Every single card was Mythic or Masterpiece. All of them.

Either something has went very wrong or something went very right. 

Anyone else have the same experience?

I can provide Screenshots of the card tab with all them marked as new if needed as proof

    And the 2 VIP packs just gave me another 7. In one fell swoop I have every RNA Masterpiece and all but one GRN Masterpiece

    I got the same: 20 new non-dupe masterpiece. Right! 

    I had every mythic before, except 4 exclusives from newest set.

    This has got to either be a bug, or a "welcome to VIP for the first hundred subs" thing.

    All non- dupes for me as well (until I had everything anyways) :)

    Might be that it's guaranteed non dupes. Which means me grinding all the rares in standard with orbs paid dividends

    Thanks for notifying them so they could fix it 👌

    No problems. If it's unfair it's best to get it out there. I don't mind the cards, but I dont want to ignore an issue. Having worked in games dev I know how much we appreciate rapid feedback. 

    If it's working as intended, I'm over the moon

    And I got nothing in my standard packs!!!! 20 regular cards common and uncommon mostly.

    My VIP packs gave me some good cards, but I wonder if this was as good as “advertised” in OP.

    The bug only works on Android.IOS loses again.

    And isn’t that just perfect. I’m on iOS!

    Nice this is platform dependent. Well, I suppose a little is better than nothing.

    @StoicFnord - care to update your post to reflect this so others are not falling into the same trap?

    I'm on Android. Got a  bunch of dupes in the Standard packs, but the VIP packs were 10x non-dupe mythics, which seems like a good deal for $30.

    I’m on IOS- got the bountiful bonanza- guess they fixed the non- dupeness........

    I have paid one week Vip and got just commons and uncommons dupes from the legacy and standard boosters. No mythic no rare.

    So people who buy the master VIP pack now won't get the 20 non-dupe mythics? Not that I'm buying any of this, but some people in my coalition would like to have an answer on that question.

    If it's fixed by now it would be sad to see (again) how quickly they can fix these kind of things as opposed to gameplay bugs.

    How do you mean it is fixed? I’m guessing you mean the windfall some users received are no longer occurring?

    @Tremayne that's what I've been hearing in my coalition and what triggered my first "thanks for telling D3 guys" response.
