Training (Story)
The Training Story level teaches new mechanics introduced to the game with each card set since Shadows over Innistrad.
It is broken up into one chapter per card set. Each chapter has a varying number of battles. In each battle, the player uses a provided Planeswalker with pre-built deck against a level 1 opponent. From the beginning, these were almost always level 1 versions of Planeswalkers from the associated set.

Battles
The series begins, on the sets that game developer Hibernum brought out, with opponents based on cards, as with the Origins Story battles. Developer Oktagon briefly went back to this during the XLN and RIX Training, and even had the player play a card avatar in the M19 training, but otherwise, from DOM onward, the enemies are as the players: L1 Planeswalkers from the associated set.
Players looking for a fast Story game to farm for objectives could do worse than Ixalan (XLN) #3, with its 20 HP opponent and their own 6/5 creature already on the board. Extra swaps are everywhere, but M21 #1 is easy to remember, and DMU #4 (Phyrexian gems) consistently gives a five-swap followed by a three-swap cascade into a second five-swap on the first turn.
There is no training for The Brothers' War since it introduced no new game mechanics.
