There's no need to craft them, no risk of finding them later. We'll get Mankrik and Diamond Samuro at launch. Those won't show up in packs due to duplicate protection.
The only risk was to get those from packs at the pre-release event, and Blizzard covered it by allowing full-disenchant.
Golden and normal cards are tracked separately for the purposes of duplicate protection. Presumably, diamond has its own separate tracking as well (though duplicate protection isn't really necessary for diamond cards).
So yes, you could open a golden Mankrik or either type of Samuro after you already have the free ones.
Incredibly powerful opening for Tempo Elemental Shaman in a meta where Arid Stormer and Gyreworm both exist. Might even be kind of neat for a Tempo Priest with cheaper Lightspawn.
If I understand it correctly it's first come first served for the codes right? Whoever nabs the code the streamer provides first is the one who gets it. So...no opening 5 streams in the background while you're doing something else and hoping you end up getting picked?
