Duplicate protection basically means when you open a pack, you can't find more than 2 copies of the same card IN THAT SINGLE PACK. From the wording and announcement, I also was under the impression that it will prevent duplicates all together, but no. In fact, you can get more of the same cards from future packs.
Hm, sounds like a bug to me. You should get two copies of all cards before receiving duplicates. Have you checked for goldens? A golden card doesn't count if you type "missing" into the card collection.
Yes yes, I checked, I thought it first with a card a later checked one of the copies was golden. But then it happened again with another, and I have 4 normal copies of a rare, but I don't have all the rares twice...

Well, there's been a lot of bugs with this rotation (to say the least), and maybe duplicate protection was affected too? I would contact Blizzard if I were you. Maybe reach out to the Hearthstone subreddit, the devs are quite active there, and if anyone else has had the same problem, it will gain a lot of attention.

You will not receive more than one copy of a Legendary card, until you have owned all the Legendary cards in that card expansion. Similarly, you will not receive more than two copies of any Common, Rare, or Epic card until you have owned two copies of all cards of that rarity in that card expansion.
Hi all,
I have noticed I got 4 or more copies of some rare cards, having just one copy of other rare cards... Have they removed the duplicate protection??

Just to be clear, no, this isn't true.
You’re wrong.
Take a walk on the wild side...
Definitely is still working for me!

IMO it works only for Legendaries and Epics

You're definitely confusing something, OP. The duplicate protection works fine.
Post some screenshots to confirm.
There is no "IMO". We know exactly how it works.
And it works for all rarities.
Here for the comments, but I'm pretty sure that this is for legendaries only..

You are all wrong (except maybe OP...if there's a bug):

Could you post some screenshots? Mine works fine btw
Its a bug.
I suspect that he is talking about having 3+ copies of rares in set X and less than 2 in set Y. Way more probable explanation than a rare bug.
I dont think there's a bug either. I think it's working as expected and OP is just seeing things.
Isn't this just having 2x Core versions of rares you already had? Click on 'em, see what editions they're from.
Thanks!

You couldn’t read the comment above yours?

It's a bug or you're confusing the card sets. Post screenshots and check somewhere the devs are active like reddit.
