Hearthstone Pack Opening Interuption

So I was opening a classic pack in Hearthstone.

  1. I dragged the pack to the center of the screen to bust it open
  2. I got invited to Brawl a friend
  3. I accepted the invitation without clicking on any of the cards
  4. After the Brawl I went back to click on my cards, but they were gone
  5. When I checked my collection there were no new cards listed.

Obviously I could have just gotten duplicate cards, but it has me a little concerned. Did I get duplicates or did I just lose the pack :O


Solution 1:

The cards are opened as soon as you open the pack; you do not need to click on the cards to open them and 'send' them to your card collection.

Cards do not show as new if you have 2 or more of them, so it is likely you got 5 duplicates and they are hidden away in your deck somewhere.

Solution 2:

So I retested this last night.

  1. I got my card counts to where I could see the increase even if I got a duplicate
  2. Busted open a pack
  3. Accepted an invitation from a friend before opening the pack
  4. Went back to the pack opening screen after completing a game with my friend, the cards were again gone
  5. Checked my collection

I did have 5 new cards; so I must have got 5 duplicates last time too.
