Because it is a PvE event, the opponents' deck lists are full of cards from the associated set. [[A World Reborn], Avacyn's Madness, Battle of Four Tribes and The Elderspark are also both PvE and Coalition.
None of its objectives require cards from HOU. Elements from HOU, other than the cards and bosses themselves are present: one boss ability affects Activated gems, and one summons Zombies.
The 70 hour Avacyn's Madness will be the longest and most difficult event newer players have seen. Return of the God-Pharaoh is longer still: 96 hours, four days. Because it is a Boss Health event, it may, like Avacyn's Madness, end sooner.
It is also more dangerous to the unwary. Nicol Bolas, Node 3.3, is a good example. He can easily kill opponents in a very short number of turns, but plays almost entirely Spells and Spell-reliant Supports. It was always possible to play without creatures and make most of his deck and his Loyalty ability redundant, but he may be one of the easier bosses now because of Test of Talents.
An event diminishing in frequency in the years past; it was scheduled to run three times each in 2019 and 2020, twice in 2021, and once in 2022, on the 4th of November.
Special rules
This event has the following special rules:
Boss Health event | Wins, by any player, reduce a global boss health pool. The event ends when the boss hp reaches 0%. |
