My coveting of one card in particular got the better of me...three times. I have only a handful Mythics so the 1st draw being a dupe (a great dupe mind you, but a dupe nonetheless) was heartbreaking. The other 2 draws, however, were surprisingly awesome and NOT dupes. I still do not have the aforementioned card of which I covet, but maybe one day this 3-time offer will return, and on that day I'll do it again.

Why are we all playing you in Platinum Tier then?? i was silly and mastered all my cards. i think i win like 97% of my event games though, so i'm comfy where i'm at. how do my decks hold up? hopefully they give all the right people trouble...

As if that weren't bad enough, the last 2 Mythics I've pulled from regular packs were also dupes. Considering the number of Mythics now in the game (it's more than 100, isn't it?), the chances of this happening to me should be astronomical... Just the chances of pulling ONE dupe should be something around 1%, if there are 100 Mythics offered in that Mythic pack. If I have 8 Mythics total, that would be like 8%. Now 8% I could believe; but the fact that the last couple Mythics I've pulled were also dupes? That compounds the rarity of pulling a dupe with each iteration. I can't do the math on it, but I'd be willing to bet the chances of pulling 3 dupes in a row with only 8 Mythics total in your collection is less than 1 percent... I wouldn't put it past these guys to have algorithms built into the pack-opening mechanics that add weight to duplicates, based on your collection. I wish a developer would come in here and categorically deny that this -- or any similar weight -- exists in the coding. I'm just glad I didn't spend real money to make that pull.This only reinforces my opinion that it's not worth the risk to spend real money on this game until the devs become more transparent with the pack-opening mechanics, or until they can assure us (somehow) that there is no "weight" added into the coding that favors duplicate pulls based on the player's collection.
