RGP has three "wheel" nodes to AM's five. The points awarded on each "wheel" vary greatly just as AM's do: 15 points on the first and 60 on the last, compared with AM's 10 points on the first and 55 on the last. They are spread similarly, also, with the middle wheel on both being 15 points for the Win! objective in both events.
RotGP is also more dangerous than Avacyn's Madness, to the unwary. [[#3.3 Nicol Bolas|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, most of which require a target: the player's creatures. It was always possible , [[#2024 Edition|until the December 2024 run of RotGP]], to play without creatures and make most of his deck and his Loyalty ability redundant, but he became one of the easier bosses after Test of Talents.
The [https://forums.d3go.com/discussion/91297/return-of-the-god-pharaoh-2024-special-edition#latest 2024 changes proposed by Webcore] add four Masterpiece cards. Using Masterpieces in PvE events is a hallmark of Webcore; Oktagon and even Hibernum avoided using them, and may in fact have used none at all. Mythics incongruously replace Uncommons and Rares in the low level boss decks. Objectives are changed to be more difficult, in an already grueling event.
= 2024 Edition =
3.3's Touch of Bolas was changed to do 40 damage even if the player controlled no creatures. Test of Talents should still be an effective counter.
