Quote from BlizzardIn the year of the Mammoth, you embarked on many memorable quests! You explored steamy jungles in search of primordial mysteries in Journey to Un’goro. You embraced the deadly power of the Lich King in Knights of the Frozen Throne. You delved deep into trap-infested tunnels to loot incredible treasures in Kobolds & Catacombs. Now, one last legendary quest remains in the Year of the Mammoth, and the rewards are beyond your wildest dreams!

So no Mexico, thanks for nothing Blizz. Not even the 3 pack bundle.
If you can't participate is more likely that in Mexico there are some laws that prevent blizzard to include you rather than they deciding without reason to exclude countries
hdspm!!!
I don't know about anyone else, but that smirking mug of his makes me want to punch Ben Brode in the face.
Sounds like a reasonable reason to want to punch someone in the face... (that's sarcasm if you can't tell)
Ben Brode is awesome and gets way too much hate
If this is available in game I can use my Amazon coins on it, so its really 30 packs for $15!
Update today?
If you are unable to do quests, you can also send a postcard(!) to Blizzard each day, as ans alternative way to enter. See the rules
Out of a player base of 70 million, I do not have high hopes of winning any prize.
70 millons - a lot of none real accounts that people make for some reason, the invite a friend thing, etc and let it forgotten, and the countrie restrition for the first price that reduces a lot the number of players that can win something so, you guys have more chance than you think, good luck :D
Yes. It is 51001 / 70000000 = 0,07%.
wtf?? My country isnt THAT shithole?? Who would thought?
I bet not all countries are eligible because of the shipping of items on the main prize. I don't care about that one, just let me get some free packs!
I would be able to craft so much with 120,000 dust! kappa
Absolutely! That's 75 Legendary cards or 300 Epic cards or 1200 Rare cards. :)
Well I'm not getting my hopes up but it would be nice to win atleast the 3 packs bundle :))))
Nice Portugal is eligible.
