Heroic Encounters is a Story mode Chapter featuring 30 PvE opponents. It was the first of the Story supplements, released soon after the Origins Story, and before Training and Battle for Zendikar encounters.
Heroic Encounters is accessed from the furthest right of the Story mode UI. It starts locked, and is unlocked by completing the Win the Game objective of every node in Chapter 1, Parts 1 and 2. Once it is unlocked, any of the games in the Heroic Encounters or Planeswalkers Chapters sections can be played, in any order.
The first section of five battles introduces the five Origins Planeswalkers. Each of them is then given their own section of five battles.
All levels, hit points, mana bonuses and abilities of the enemies are as the Origins Planeswalkers at level 50.
All the encounters are against decks built of mostly if not all Origins cards.
The Mana Rune rewards for winning on each node the first time are unusually high: 1760 or more. Subsequent wins give 250 Runes, also the highest of Story mode. The reward for winning with Planeswalkers of all five colors is 15 Crystals, rather than the 10 that the origins Story gives.
Heroic Encounters
The first five decks are each seven Rares and three Mythics .
The stats are shown here, once, to save time and space.

The first, third, and last battles have mutually exclusive objectives. The first can be remarkably difficult; poor starting draws can lead to a defeat in a handful of rounds.
Battle 1
Must be played twice to complete both secondary objectives. It is markedly more difficult than the other battles, and requires some sort of non-targeted removal (eg Origins' Claustrophobia or Fleshbag Marauder or The Great Aurora or PMA's Wight), to deal with the starting and potentially subsequent Gaea's Revenges.
