open 2 more packs, assuming those 8 were from the same set. and assuming you hadnt opened a legendary in that set after the patch that introduced the new drop rate
The new rule only works if you have never opened ten of that sets packs before. Additionally, these "statistics" are using way to small of a sample size. People will be opening thousands of packs in a few weeks, let's wait until then to redetermine pity timers and pack rng when we have a realistic sample size to back up that data. Anything else is just pointless speculation.

Thats how it was advertised, but for a disproportionate number of players that's not what happened. I tested this with 5 accounts, got a legendary within first 10 packs of all four types. you can buy with gold On a couple I got a golden, and I kept going and also got a regular by pack 10 since the golden legendaries are apparently a separate timer. On one account I went and bought 9 each of TGT and GVG and got a legendary from those as well. On my main NA account I had knowingly stopped opening Mean Streets and Whispers packs knowing I had previously hit the pity timer so those should have been reset to close to 40 yet.
There's enough people posting it didnt work for them, but there's 5 saying that it did for every 1 doubter.
I decided to give this a try on my alternate account. I need cards from all sets, so there was no real harm. I keep detailed records for both my accounts, so I have attached my findings from this experiment. The data should be self-explanatory. I included additional months to show when my timers had reset on their own, prior to July 21st. I don't believe this to be an amazing streak of good luck. Though, take away from it what you will. I'll probably do this on my main account for some additional non-duplicate legendary action.
Chart Legend: N = New G = Golden
[Legendaries obtained: Inkmaster Solia, Hallazeal the Ascended, Golden Millhouse Manastorm, Lakkari Sacrifice.]
Unlike others i'm feeled that something was really wrong instead so i'm taked all in un'goro packs because i'm oppened 2 in the first 10 packs of un'goro.
For me pity timer in reseting to 30 instead of reset to 0 making a pity timer of 10 packs instead of 40.
That would also explain why some people can't do this.Because they pity timers where really low before that patch and they need to open the first legendary before the reset to 30 start be a thing.

Good Luck!
You should go ahead and open more classic packs since Golden Legendaries have a different pitty timer than normal ones.
You probably get another legendary within 4 packs.
I haven't heard anything about a difference between timers for Golden Legendary and Regular Legendary cards. I always assumed gold versions were just another random roll upon opening the pack. I will keep an eye on my classic timer over the next while to see if I pop a Regular Legendary within 5 - 10 packs.

I'm saying that over and over because I want a lot of stuff that's coming. If all This is true i might be getting 6-7 legendaries. That would be sweet.

I thinking the same this morning but decide to spend some gold in few packs but after the spetacular outcome of legendarys, epics and golden cards I cannot stop until all my gold is gone. :)
5 legends (2 golden), a lot of epics (2 golden too) and many rares I don't regret for doing that, I have enough dust to craft the more important cards in next expansion.
It's strange. I've seen 6 people do it now all with the same results. A legend within 10 packs on all pack types. No idea why some people aren't getting it. Did you get a legend recently from that pack type?
got priest quest around 20 packs ago. this was last week
My understanding is the legendary in 10 packs only occurs in the first 10 packs you buy of a series, so if you bought 10 packs of classic prior to this change you won't get the guaranteed legendary.
Edit: might just be expansions too as Akrosian points out
Entirely false. Packs are generated on opening, not when you buy them.
What? Of course they are. I didn't say anything about that, just that they have a first 10 pack pity timer going in on packs. As noted by Blizzard right here: Hearthstone Update: Upcoming Card Pack Changes But - I mean thanks for failing at english dude
You said "if you bought", not "if you opened". You're welcome.
Hahaha what a bullshit excuse to save face. I haven't even brought up opening cards. Literally at all. This is about pity timers, I assume you know what that is. And there's a link verifying my statement from blizzard. Do you have a learning disability, legitimately, because you clearly still can't understand what you're reading. Either way, thanks chief! Good to know you understand how card packs work. Welcome to hearthstone?
This whole thing seems like confirmation bias at its finest. You get lucky, you storm to the internet to tout your luckiness, and thereby encounter others who are similarly lucky. You fail to take into account the thousands of other people who had no such turnout, and have said nothing about it.
Exactly this. The pool of people reporting great pack opening results is not the pool you need to poll in order to determine if drop rates have changed.
Good thing Hearthstone success isn't dependent on a strong working knowledge of probability! Kappa.
You are correct that this isn’t any sort of data pooling. Having opened usually garbage in the past, and reading a lot of posts on this site of similar previous garbage luck and now all of a sudden this great luck is nice and fun speculation, but worth getting excited about.
As another has mentioned, it could possibly be the Pity timers being given to everyone whom didn’t get theirs before.

If you are an arena player, you’ll probably get the packs you need anyways. Otherwise, I totally understand
And for every person like you who came here to 'confirm' the new world order, there are 10 who didn't feel like posting that they got nothing.
Edit: Retracted, got a legendary and epic in 4 packs. Advise blowing all gold immediately.

Free to try and find a game, dealing cards for sorrow, cards for pain.

oppened 7 legendaries in 30 packs.
for me there is something diferent like a new pity timer.
just opened 10 ungoro packs now and got no legendaries :(
it was 7 legs in 30 un`goro packs.
Unlike others i'm feeled that something was really wrong instead so i'm taked all in un'goro packs because i'm oppened 2 in the first 10 packs of un'goro.

Resume: Crazy bug with pity timer.

no hes probably right, i had to open 13 before i got legendary, i got another on on my 15th pack though
