What's the deal with the rank standard packs (lemmy.ml)

I’m assuming because it’s the end of the standard year blizzard is trying to squeeze money out of everyone but each time I check the shop the standard pack bundles I unlocked for reaching bronze, silver or gold etc have disappeared.

Do they only unlock for a certain time?

Or are they only there for certain ranks?

Anyone have a list of all the bundle tiers?

They only last for so long, they'll go away after a set amount of time, so basically creating FOMO. Also the 52 pack bundle was the same price point as the 17 pack for 10 but you get 1 more pack in the 52. Best thing to do would be to buy them and wait till the new expansion drops to open them, assuming you have the rest of the collection you would get exclusively the new expansion set cards.

Edit: and for each rank you get, a new bundle unlocks. Each more lucrative than the last, in terms of money spent and reciprocation.

Yeah I actually considered buying the 52 packs specifically for the next rotation but then it disappeared.

Silly decision by blizzard to not explain to me (someone who has only been playing again for a few months) that that is how these bundles work.

Also if anyone cares the legendary bundle is 30 Golden Standard Packs.
