Hearthstone Pack Percentages

I bought 40 packs of Hearthstone packs last night, finally caving in to the pay-to-win model of Hearthstone that people have tried to deny for ages. I knew it, but tried to play without paying despite this, but after some thought I decided to just go ahead and spend the money.

I was checking out some card rarity posts and it seems like the percentages were Rare (23%), Epic (4.5%), Legendary (1.1%)

For my own 40 packs, my percentages were as follows:

146 Common
43 Rare (4golden)
7 Epic
4 Legendaries (2golden)

which translates to

Common (73%)
Rare (21.5%)
Epic (3.5%)
Legendary (2%)

I think I got really lucky here - despite lower percentages for rare and epics, I got almost double the expected % for legendaries (about 1 per 10 packs). And not just that, TWO of the legendaries were golden! So I actually disenchanted them both (Nozdormu and Baron Geddon; I already had the latter and the former is useless) to craft Ragnaros and Sylvanas which I really wanted.

Also crafted a Black Knight from the extra dust from DE everything else.

If you want to see the exact breakdown of cards that I got, just refer below after the page break.
