It is the third Duel Decks format event, before [[Fate of the Supervoid]] in September 2025, [[Duel Decks: Daxos vs Kalemne]] in 2020, and [[Duel Decks: Zendikar vs Eldrazi]] in 2018.
Although Duel Decks is a complicated format, this version of the event is the best documented on the forums, with a full walkthrough with examples in the "Some Observations" section at the bottom of the webpage :

The supports are:
== Trade the Helm ==
: Chandra, Spark Hunter side

== Guidelight Matrix ==
: Jace Reawakened side
When a nontoken creature enters the battlefield under your control :
Deal two damage to a random opposing target. This effect can only trigger once per turn.
== Setup Phase ==
PvE - unlimited charges
This phase represents the first 24 hours of the event (while this is the only phase “unlocked”) but can be played during the whole 72 hours of the event.
Players will only use the event pre-build deck and will play unlimited charges to complete the objectives for each side. The first battle has only the first objective unlocked. Completing the first objective unlocks the second objective for the next battle, and completing the second objective unlocks the third one for the next battle.
The objective rewards will be available once and earned the first time the players complete the objective.
Once the player completes the three objectives from a side, they will be able to choose that side to play in the next phases.

After choosing to join Team Chandra or Team Jace, the decision can’t be undone.
