Can anyone confirm that by saving Darkmoon Faire packs I would be able to open new cards from mini-set when it launches instead of cards we currently have? I saw some people saying that we should open them all right now and some say we should save them for the mini-set, so I'm confused.
It depends in my opinion. If you still miss some cards you want, open them now, because the chance will get worse if there are more cards in the pool. If you have everything you want, just save them...
But it was also easy to verify when various people who saved their Book of Heroes packs (for DH, Hunter and Mage) and opened them after the DMF release got the latest DMF cards from them.
It also makes logical sense as otherwise the duplicate protection and pity timer concepts would not work properly

Im saving, 80 packs currently... hope it works
To live is to suffer, to survive is to find meaning in the suffer!
IMO no, because AFAIK when you buy/get packs it is already decided what rarity are the cards.
I am currently just hoarding gold to buy packs AFTER the miniset goes live to get cards from that miniset.

That's not true. Pack contents are determined the moment you open them and not when you buy them.
Is there some official source for this? I want to know more.
I have no source for my statement other than that I red it somewhere there on HPWN, and I am not saying it is 100% true.
Thanks

Googling about it I found out that this was already being discussed 5 years ago and the back then HS game director confirmed it on twitter:
