The answer was that nobody really knew beyond the originally stated "two weeks", but it seems to have ended on January 7. They've given us quite an unexpected extension of several days worth. 

Glad to hear! With the ultimate end times nowadays, that seems to work pretty much how I mention in the intro: over the course of the past year it's all somehow become closer to 15 days of dust refunds rather …

With Commons you stand a very good chance of doing so, statistically, given a certain number of packs opened in the coming weeks/months. With Rares I find it can be more down to luck (based on previous disenchants/refunds, I eventually …

That's a fine point worth reiterating. I wrote "cards" for that very reason, but didn't really elaborate on the quest text potentially misleading people (maybe the devs fixed it in time through their data-only patch?). Definitely the best tip with …

I recall it happening once before with YouTube Drops, and then the packs arrived later in the week? It's certainly annoying though when these things don't work as intended, especially for their biggest event. 

Oh, yes. Even as Edwin might not be around, there must always be some form of strong Rogue represented. 

Not really, Blizzard tends to make a very specific distinction between 'new' and 'returning' players (and there have been random pack gifts for the latter category during the past month).

It's probably a bit awkward in that regard, since …

In an ideal world, for certain. That would've been great to have. The added problem with these things is the fact that all necessary information isn't often easy to find early enough; sometimes it literally comes up right before. And …

Updated with added info: the requirement of watching whole 2 hours per pack makes this an incredibly tight window for anyone arriving late to the broadcast. Also the group brackets along with the lineups & decks are in. 

And even more specifically, any current Known Issues official forum thread that we tend to link to in any of our "Issues & Fixes" articles, as that's where the developers track the posts the most. Sharing the bugs you …

Update (yet again) - Added the following:

[quote from="Blizzard" href="https://twitter.com/PlayHearthstone/status/1601366766604587008" class="blizzard"]Heads up! Grim Patron and Gruntled Patron will be unbanned in a new hotfix that will roll out today. Both minions will no longer leave Corpses. This will address …

Thanks for the note, added the official dev statement while at it. 

A month and a half, not much else to say since the original announcement. Well, there was also a generic Netease statement following a bit later, if you want to see (tweet link). 

Hey, it's good to know all the same! I assume those "end of turn" effects then exist in that grey area, as you've technically already passed the turn to your opponent while they resolve meanwhile.

It's indeed back on in all regions by now (whether everything is working as intended again remains to be seen), updated the post accordingly. 

We got a different one. Death Knight wasn't a class that any one of us had a chance to ever play before this expansion's launch, so just about everything would've been only pure speculation and theorycrafting. Plus that's 68 …

That might be another type of issue they haven't yet figured out. They were supposed to come up with alternative solutions.

I believe the deck codes should be all working correctly by now, as tested in-game by several people. Let us know if you get a chance to try!

It's pretty much what they do with Mini-Sets already. A nuisance to be sure.

Yep, unfortunately it's become a widespread known issue. As you can probably see now here.
