Time is running out for the Standard Pack Bundle that arrived in the Hearthstone shop 2 weeks ago. Today is the last day to make your purchase of the new pack type.
The bundle contains the following:
- 5x Standard Packs
- 1x Random Standard Legendary
The neat thing about the Standard Pack is that it can contain any card in the Standard set. So, by purchasing these packs, you can open them after the miniset or the next expansion comes out and they should be able to have new cards. Unfortunately, you can't hold off on the legendary portion of the bundle as that will get instantly redeemed, but it remains a neat way to get prepared for future releases.
If you're looking to flaunt your wealth, we've also got another bundle in the shop you may be interested in - Two Golden Standard Bundles were made available last week and are available through June 2.
If you open up the standard packs, show us your loot in the comments below.

It's also the last day for Battle-Ready Decks.
These are the little deals I like.
Personally, I find those standard packs to be less valuable than regular expansion packs. I mean, isn't it far more likely to open a specific card out of the pack with the smaller card pool?
Yes, in most cases (especially as expansion packs do have pity timers - these ones, we don't quite know). Although makes less difference for newer accounts that need cards from everywhere.
There is that advantage mentioned that for the patient folks out there, these Standard packs could count as packs from the upcoming expansion - if say, you already have all commons and rares from the past 4 sets. But it's a small headstart at best.
This one has really been mainly about its price, compared to all the past offers. In Hearthstone terms it almost felt like a bargain, which shows how rarely any truly attractive deals come about.
