Journey into Nyx: God packs

Random Journey into Nyx boosters were seeded to be literally and figuratively "God Packs" and contained all 15 Gods of Theros block.

But what does the official rule say if we crack God pack?
7.4 Abnormal Product
Neither Wizards of the Coast nor the Tournament Organizer guarantee any specific distribution of card rarities or frequency in a particular booster pack or tournament pack. If a player receives an unconventional distribution of rarities or frequencies in a particular booster pack or tournament pack, he or she must call a judge. The final decision to replace or allow the atypical product is at the discretion of the Head Judge and the Tournament Organizer.

and what is the Wizards suggestion?
If one of your players has been blessed by the gods and experiences the thrill of opening one of these packs in a limited event you're running, we suggest that you amplify the excitement by letting the player keep that pack, removing those cards from the event, and issuing them a new unopened booster as a replacement for the event at no charge. Other players will see this as a sign that the gods have blessed your store, and they may come back to play in more events.

 Unfortunately, you cannot open such booster online.
Anyway, good marketing move WotC!

Did you or your mates open God pack during pre-release?

  1. We had two God packs opened at our local prerelease. They need to do this sort of thing more often.
