Unlike other single-player events without charges, winning on a node you've already beaten continues to earn ribbons, so it is possible to collect all rewards simply by repeating the first opponent. This is true of all events in AJTH.

A Nightmare of War changed from Standard to Legacy in November 2019 (v3.9). Originally, players received a bonus of a particular story-related Dominaria Saga card in their hand on the first turn of each node, but the bonus cards were later removed.
