Since November 2020, Rising Tensions ceased being a Standard daily event with different flavours, and became a single three-node Legacy event.

Overview

Rising Tensions originally comprised two PvE Legacy events, one with Guilds of Ravnica themes, and the other with Ravnica Allegiance themes.

Each of these two events had five varieties, which were run as daily events during the week. In total, the Rising Tension events featured 10 event varieties, each corresponding to one of the two-color Guilds of Ravnica.

Each instance of the event awarded a guild-specific mythic card as the final progression reward, and had an entry fee of 20  .
