Something Changed With Card Drawing?

So I have been under the impression that the way that it builds your deck is it takes 4 copies of each of the 10 cards you choose and makes a 40 cards deck of that.  Then when you need to go deeper, it makes another 40 card deck and puts that on the bottom (I know, not he best description of the process).  I have designed decks to take advantage of this in the past.  I have played Legacy combo decks that play Deploy the Gatewatch to pull 3 copies of your only creature.  In a short time the Deploys quickly outpace drawing the creatures and you almost never draw creatures again after your first couple Deploys.  I have tried that strategy again today and it no longer seems to be working.  I played around 10 Deploys and I was still drawing my creature.

Does anyone know if this has changed recently?  Can anyone confirm how it was/is working?

    Hmm, I played another game with the same deck and it seemed to be working alright now.  Perhaps I wasn't paying that close of attention the first time and there was something that was preventing be from fetching cards?  I don't know what it could have been given that I was blowing up the board with gem conversion over and over so supports wouldn't have lasted very long, but I suppose it is possible as I wasn't paying that close of attention.
