General sale already started.
I wonder who will buy starter packs with cards worth few cents
Hmm, you have a point... But forget about starter packs. I didn't get anything other than regular common and rare cards from my standard packs either. That was, of course, my bad luck in this case.
That's why the alchemy packs sold well, on average it was probably higher chance to have value on those rather than a regular pack
Yes, they produced much better results for me. But statistically it's not relevant, since I didn't have enough packs of any kind.
