== Challenge Phase ==
Choose a planeswalker below and duel against the other one, using a pre-set deck. Nodes have no charges and are untimed.
Only the first objective (Win the Fight) is initially unlocked and available on each node. Completing the first objective unlocks the second objective, and completing the second objective unlocks the third objective.
In order to join Nissa's or Eldrazi's side in the [[#Duel and Final Duel Phase|Duel and Final Duel phases]], and to receive their [[#Challenge Phase rewards|Challenge Phase rewards]], all three of their respective Challenge Phase objectives must be completed.

== Duel and Final Duel Phase ==
It is eight hours between the start of the event and the opening of the Duel Phase, represented by a timer above the lower node. Once the Duel Phase starts, the timer is replaced by another, indicating twelve hours until the start of the Final Duel.
Join one side and play PvP duels against the other side. Each game depletes a charge on the node, which is recharged over time.
If the player uses the preconstructed deck provided, it is the same cards as the [[#Challenge Phase rewards|Welcome Pack Rewards]]. [[Mastery|Card XP]] will accrue to these cards if they are unmastered.
The player may construct their own deck, with the following additional restrictions:
* '''Both sides:''' Can only use cards from the [[ORI]], [[ZVE]], [[BFZ]], and [[OGW]] card sets.
* '''The Eldrazi Devastation:''' Cannot use green or white cards.
The side with the most victories at the end of the event is the winning side.

== Rewards ==
The Eldrazi side has almost never won, making [[#Eldrazi|its reward]], if not the {{Card URL|Eye of Ugin}} itself, quite rare.
