So I got my WoG preorder plus a ton of gold saved up for launch. Of course I'm super excited to open packs....haven't opened much lately cause I have most of TGT and Classic already. Gettin antsy, so I thought "hey, I'm still missing a few legendaries from TGT, I'll just do a little 7 packer and see if I can snag one for the road". Well, I pulled one, but of course it was like my third Gormok the Impaler. Whatevs, was fun. But then I thought "Wait...I haven't pulled a Legendary for awhile cause of the whole saving gold thing...."
So Blizz has come out and said that your chances on pulling Legends increase if you haven't had one drop naturally recently....Did I just lower my chances when I open my WoG packs?!?!? Really!?! BECAUSE OF ANOTHER GORMOK?!?!?!?
Dude, relax, it is literary random. I barely ever pull a lengendary from packs, if the chances increased i would literally be at like 200% now and still won't get shit. So just chill and praise the sun.
Edit---
Dafuq, so you mean to tell me that if i had opened 39 of the same set i would get a legendary.
There is indeed a 'pity timer' where you get at least one Legendary if you open 40 packs (the average of getting a legendary is 1 in 20 packs). However, this timer is seperate for each pack-type so you would start with a clean slate anyway for Old Gods packs.
Note that the pity timer thing is not official. It's just that there is no known case where someone opened 40 packs OF ONE TYPE and got zero legendaries.

Indeed, but neither is gravity official. It's just that there is no known case where something just floated unnaturally in the air with no natural reason to not to drop.

You know, "God / the Universe confirms gravity on twitter" would be a cool headline. Might settle a few debates. "Upcoming universe patch has particle physicists up in arms. Up-quark finally nerfed?"
Don't worry the pity timer is based on the different sets. Plus even after getting a legendary there is still an almost constant 3% chance to get one per pack, so if you open another TGT pack, you will still have a chance to open another legendary.

You're overthinking this. Just relax, and things will work out.
The pity timer is individually per card pack (GVG, TGT, Vanilla etc), so it has no effect on WOG.
Good thing you get a free legendary in the first pack that you open.
Oh okay cool. Pooped my pants over nothin lol.

Just Google it. Was all over reddit.com/r/hearthstone a month or two ago.
There's no official statement from Blizzard on it, just lots of "looking at the numbers" from the community.
Feel free to add me if you play on NA! iMPose#1429
