”No Victory Without Sacrifice.”

In short, a daily event with the normal rewards, facing random opponents as with the Battles From the Ages event, but with no exclusive rewards. New custom decks, with the Planeswalkers players use, may also appear.

Most of the "custom" Planeswalker decks appear to have Cryptex and either Leyline of the Guildpact or Hall of Gemstone, and many have Golden Wish and Demolition Field. It is no exaggeration to say that they are between difficult and brutal decks, and can be played by the computer, as usual, anywhere from extremely well to extremely badly.

It seems that White or Blue decks have Assimilation Aegis, and Red or Black have Rakdos, Patron of Chaos. Many Green decks have Ghalta, Stampede Tyrant.

Whereas player matching has always evened the playing field between new and more experienced players, there appears to be no difference between the decks that players in Bronze, Silver, Gold and Platinum are facing in this event.

There is at least one opponent from a Coalition event : A World Reborn.

This article will link to the original events, and to the battles within those events, where the deck lists and mana bonuses and abilities can be found. It will not display the abilities and mana bonuses, as the Battles From the Ages article does. As of a month after release, lack of information to the contrary makes it reasonable to assume that all battles in those events are included, as they are in BftA. One might also assume that the PvE event boss opponents are the same ones as in BftA, although there are a few events from BtfA for which no evidence exists.

"Event Type: PvE

Entry Fee: 20 Mana Crystals

Deck Restrictions: Standard

After the first run of Planar Chaos, there was no information indicating that battles from Battle of Four Tribes or Duets of Mana or Hero's Path - Face the Hydra, all of which are encountered in BftA, are included in Planar Chaos.

Story

Time is a fickle entity; meddle with its threads and face the unimaginable consequences. The godlike power of the first era planeswalkers resulted in rifts in time and space. Teferi noticed the implications of those rifts when first preparing for the return of the continent of Shiv, after the first Phyrexian Invasion. The rifts in Dominaria threaten all of existence. Power means nothing when faced against the chaotic and unstoppable force of the march of time.

Version history

"After 5 victories or 2 defeats, the event will end, and you’ll receive the accumulated rewards."

On release, in practice, there turned out to be no limit on wins. A few players used the event to master cards with, although there are certainly easier alternatives. And generous players played additional matches to provide us with the data for this page.

On the 4th of September, the ability of players to play the event was curtailed, when additional charges were removed after the fifth win. All known deck lists for custom Planeswalker opponents have been included, and the list of decks is almost complete, but reducing additional games makes gathering information more difficult.
